1987 • 67 minutes

About this movie

This is The Dog’s Tale: his first encounter with the sexy Jess; his loyal devotion to Wal Footrot, whom he saves from a fate worse than death; his adventures with Horse, the cat with the barracuda jaw and fishhook claws; his brilliant cowardice and mighty nose, pitted against the dastardly schemes of the villainous Murphys, their Hell Hounds, and the Croco Pigs. It’s all here in the Dog’s Tail Tale, the full length, animated feature film of Australia and New Zealand’s most popular cartoon strip, digitally remastered for a new generation.

Footrot Flats was my favourite cartoon in the daily paper. Bought the video when it came out, then got the dvd.when it was released. I had all the books till a couple of years ago when they were liberated by the grand kids. Now I have it on the Samsung tablet, I have given it a 5.
