I need a fellow up at my kennels.

I think, Carraclough,

that you're the very fellow for the job.

I, sir?

I, to get paid for working with dogs?

- Will you take the job?

- You see, l...

Of course he will, sir.

He will? Good, splendid, excellent.

We'll make the judges at Crufts sit up,

won't we, Carraclough?

Aye. Indeed we will, sir.

What was that?

What was what, sir?

Just a minute.

No, you're wrong, sir.

If you're thinking it's Lassie,

you're entirely wrong.

How could a poor dog

come all the way from Scotland?

- Just a minute, Carraclough.

- Yes, sir.

You can see that's a poor tyke

we picked up on the road.

You can see that's not the dog.

She has no breeding, no blood.

- That'll do, Carraclough.

- Yes, sir.

Yes, Grandfather.

Have you ever seen this dog before?

- No, Grandfather.

- Neither have I.

I thought for a minute, but I was mistaken.

This is no dog of mine.

Upon my soul and honor,

this dog never belonged to me.

Come along, child. We've got to be going.

Yes, sir?

That dog looks to me

as if she needs a lot of care.

She does that, sir.

She'll get all the care she needs

up at my kennels.

- Indeed she will, sir.

- Goodbye, Carraclough.

- I'm so glad you're going to be with me.

- Thank you, Your Grace.

- Goodbye, Mrs. Carraclough.

- Goodbye, Your Grace.

- Come along, child.

- Goodbye.

Goodbye, child.

Thank you, sir.

Do you think he knew?

Bless you, he knew.

She's our Joe's Lassie again.

We'll soon have thee well again, girl.

She wants to meet Joe.

But the poor thing's so weak.

We shouldn't let her go, Sam.

Aye, but she's walked hundreds of miles

to see our lad.

- I'll not rob her of that now.

- Then wait.

So he'll know.

Off she goes.

You're my Lassie come home.
