Continuing our series of posts about the collie in art, we have to include the animated collie! Animation is a form of art that gives life, movement and emotion to hand drawn, or computer generated images. These images are filmed in sequence, and used to tell a story. There is an animated version of Lassie, that has charmed and entertained countless fans.

So have you spotted a collie in other animated films that we may have missed? Leave us a comment, and let us know!
To be honest, mom doesn't watch many animated movies. She prefers the un-animated ones.
ReplyDeleteInteresting post! My mum is Gen X too.
ReplyDeleteThose are all adorable. Lassie was a favorite when I was young.
ReplyDeleteI am so embarrassed to admit this, but with as many times as I've watched Rudolph, I've never noticed the sled dogs! I didn't know there was a Lassie animated series either...
ReplyDeleteThose Collies have nothing on you, the real deal
