Plots(1)
The first in the series of "Lassie" movies. Here, Sam Carraclough sells the collie to a rich family, much to the dismay of both Lassie, and Sam's young son Joe. Lassie misses the Carracloughs so much that, with "dogged" determination, she attempts a dangerous, adventure-filled cross-country trip back home. Will the boy and his dog be reunited?
