Having grown up and spent a lot of time in the mt farm area, when people routinely shot dogs for LOOKING wrong at a chicken, refusing to give up a bird when hunting etc, I didn't really fixate on the training methods when I saw it as a child nor in the years since. I am glad things have changed, but training was what it was and every animal was a commodity of some sort, not just a pet.
VCR ALERT: Good bye, My Lady

I love this old movie! TCM is running it at 11am today (Friday 4.29,2011). I just set my DVR. Wheee!
By the way, Nayru told me she feels that she is far prettier than Jennifer Lopez. Therefore, she's changing her name to Nay-Lo.
I didn't know where to post this so I I'm putting where I think most folks look the most.

WOHOO, thanks! I set the dvr to record it. I swear I thought I bought it on DVD but can't find it. So I'll copy it tomorrow just in case!
-
All set to record! Thanks for the heads up!
-
Am watching it now! Darn, missed the first part. Hopefully they will replay it at some time.
-
I'll keep an eye out. I'm watching it now and CRYING even though I know how it ends. LOL I'm such a wuss.
Naylo (Nayru prefers to be called Naylo now since she's prettier than J-Lo) is really reacting to the Basenji noises.
-
Who knew Basenjis can sound like Dolphins or Chimps?
Some great training tips in it as well (rat).
-
Oh it's definitely a product of its time. Pickaninny donuts always makes me cringe in horror. But I love the dog. And I love that Brandon de Wilde kept the dog he worked with in that movie.
