THE STORY: This is a very enjoyable made for television live action movie. It is the story of a Welsh Corgi puppy named "Candy", a family adopts one day and she fast becomes friends with their two smll children, Bud and Katy. One day Candy has a run in with a broom, that leaves her with a fear of brooms that is overwhelming. Candy gets lost one day on a fmaily outing and befriends a woman when he helps her. Later he befriends a retired farmer, and sets forth some unusual but heart warming coincidences. Meanwhile his family continues to search for him.

BEHIND THE SCENES & TRIVIA: Winston Hibler not only produced this film for Walt Disney but he narrated the story. Hibler narrated many of the True-Life Adventures. He also worked in the animation department, and produced some Disney live action projects including the movie "Perri". Screenplay by Catherine Turney, based on the book, "Hurry Home Candy", by Meindert de Jong. Directed by Walter Perkins. The show first aired on the Wonderful World of Color on NBC on January 13, 1963 as episode number 223, and this was the shows 9th season. Ther episode was popular enough to re-air on September 1 of that same year, August 17, '69, and one last time on June 6, 1976. It was not released to VHS and this DVD is the first release to the public in 30 years. It is in full screen, and that is the way it was originally filmed, being made for television. Likewise the sound is mono. Very fun, simply made on a tight budget, great family film about a family and their Corgi dog.

It's been a long time since I watched this movie on TV. I do remember thinking that it followed the book very closely- "Hurry home Candy" by DeJong. This DVD will be a movie I treasure.

Had to pay a pretty penny to get this 49 minute movie on DVD. But I'm very happy to have it in my library. I fondly remember as a child watching these mini classics and this underrated title masterfully defines everything The Wonderful World of Disney was putting out way back when.
A young little Corgi (a very special and yet somewhat comical breed of dog) who becomes seperated from his owners is forced to grow up and fend for himself in a brutal rural setting. There's danger or tragedy around every bush for this little guy, but in true WWD fashion, it all works out well in the end for this extremely endearing pup.
