... View MoreGreat short lived show. I have always been a dog lover and this show captured my attention when I was a young lad. I was always rooting for Joe to keep running and outsmarting the authorities. I guess it touched the deep part of the human spirit that always roots for the underdog or falsely accused. I remember that I was so disappointed when the show stopped coming on Saturday mornings. It was a nice switch from all of the animated shows that were on. I went on to have a wonderful German Shepherd named "Keesha" that lived to be over thirteen (13) years old. The show would often bring out the human aspects of dogs and I saw these very attributes in my German Shepherd. I know that it would be easy to have duplicated a "Lassie" type plot, but they took this show and added the drama of being a fugitive and made it something more. I wish we could have another show come out like this to entertain young and old alike.

A modern reincarnation of Lassie, Joe not only told of 'Timmy' down a well, he managed to nab the bad guys for the police and otherwise save the day.The trainer in his Jeep stands out in my mind... all these years later, the driver drove it without a roof or doors, and he *never* used his seat belt. If anyone would be wearing a belt in the '70s, you'd think it would be a guy with no doors.Years later, this same theme would be repeated on A-Team, Incredible Hulk, etc.
... View MoreI'm trying to figure out if this is the TV show, I remember from childhood, about a dog on the run. In my mind it's a 'Hobo' dog, or there's some reference to Hobos.I don't know, it's a fuzzy childhood memory. Did this dog ever travel via freight train cars? Was there a schmaltzy theme song to this show?Was it ever repeated later during the seventies or early eighties? When exactly did this air? I was born in 1971, so I'm not sure if I'm old enough to remember this show, and I wonder if I'm confusing it with another show starring a dog (NOT Benji!!). Were there other TV programs STARRING dogs in the 70s-80s time period?
... View MoreJoe and his person, Corey, have returned to the States after a tour of duty in Viet Nam. Joe is a good dog, but he is perceived by authorities as a dangerous weapon. Only his buddy from the service can help him, but being on the run keeps him from connecting with his friend. On the way, his heroics bale out people. Like the Lone Ranger, Joe must move on after his rescues.
