Editor's Note OLD YELLER is a heartfelt Walt Disney story of a poor 1860s Texas family and the wonderful dog who befriends them. At first, young Travis wants nothing to do with the stray. But Old Yeller quickly proves himself a loyal friend and the two become inseparable pals, sharing joyous experiences and learning valuable lessons. SAVAGE SAM: In this sequel to OLD YELLER, the famous dog's offspring saves his masters from a group of Apache Indians. The intrepid canine must brave wolves and wildcats before accomplishing his task.

[Sam] Unfortunately, Walt Disney's...Savage Sam is a far cry from the memorabilia of John Ford...In this sequel to Old Yeller...the temperamental son of that indefatigable dog gets his owners captured, ruins their attempted escape and ultimately leads the cavalry to the rescue. Since the principal captive, a 12-year-old played by Kevin Corcoran, is a singularly obnoxious brat, and his fellow prisoners, Tommy Kirk and Marta Kristen, do little more than make puppy eyes around the wigwam, few viewers are likely to care. Mr. Disney has provided bright color, Fred Gipson and William Tunberg have written abundant cliches, and Norman Tokar has directed every scene as if it were his last.
