Old Yeller Page #6

you wanna forget.

What I'm tryin' to say is,

life's like that sometimes.

Like what?

Well...

now and then, for no good reason

a man can figure out...

life will just haul off

and knock him flat.

Slam him again' the ground so hard

it seems like all his insides is busted.

But it's not all like that.

A lot of it's mighty fine.

And you can't afford to waste

the good part frettin' about the bad.

That makes it all bad.

You understand what

I'm trying to get at?

Yes, sir.

It's just that--

Yeah, sure, I know.

Sayin' it's one thing,

and feelin' it's another.

But I'll tell you a trick

that's sometimes a big help.

You start lookin' around

for somethin' good...

to take the place of the bad.

As a general rule, you can find it.

- Brought you that horse I promised.

- Yes, sir.

I reckon you ain't in no shape

to take pleasure in him yet.

- No, sir.

- Well, we'll just keep him a while.

Maybe you'll come

to feel different later on.

Your mama was fixin' supper

when I left the house.

Might hurt her feelings

if we're not there on time to eat it.

Leave that alone!

You get outta here!

Put it down! Put it down!

Why, you thievin', little wretch!

Who's that beatin' my dog?

You can't beat my dog!

- You can't beat my dog!

- Hold it, chief.

I think you're fixin'

to raise the wrong hair.

Mama was tryin' to kill my dog!

- I never even touched him.

- Of course she didn't.

Ooh, whee!

Supper ready?

- Ready and waitin'.

- Good.

Looks like it's about time I started

learnin' this old pup to earn his keep.

Don't look like to me he's hardly

big enough to learn nothin' yet.

He's big enough to learn if

he's big enough to act like Old Yeller.

Young Yeller is a puppy

A little ol'lop=eared puppy

It's plain to see

he's got a family tree

The image of his pappy

He's frisky and he's happy

=And that's how a good pup should be

= Frisky and happy

= In the West

Here. Yeller

Come back. Yeller

Best doggone dog in the West

Best doggone dog
