High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Lad: A Dog is a 1962 American dramatic film based on the 1919 novel Lad: A Dog written Albert Payson Terhune. Starring Peter Breck, Peggy McCay, Carroll O`Connor, and Angela Cartwright, the film blends several of the short stories featured in the novel, with the heroic Lad winning a rigged dog show, saving a handicapped girl from a snake, and capturing a poacher who killed his pups and injured one of his owners. Warner Brothers purchased the film rights for the novel from Vanguard Productions, and acquired the film rights for the other two Lad novels from the late Terhune`s wife.
