  Very funny. A sweet story, though it's been a long time since I've seen it. Makes me think of the book with the dog who thought he was a person.

  Good family film with Fred MacMurray and Jean Hagen as the parents, and Tommy Kirk as the title character. Lots of holes in the plot, especially the MAIN effect! Okay though. :)

  So funny how the son turns into a dog and uses the phone but the parents dont know that their son turned into a dog execpt for the youngest son knows that his brother did turn into one.

  A good classic movie, and I'm sure the newer one won't top this one if you saw it. The dog was hilarious and the overall movie was alright and quite enjoyable.

  Great kids movie. Fred MacMurray made great Disney movies and this one is no different. Not spectacular, but a good family fun that younger kids will (even though it's in B&W) still enjoy.
