in the book Old Yeller was several legendary family dogs from the author's history, all rolled into one dog.
the actor dog, Spike i think his name was, was a pound puppy that was in a few other films besides this one. he had to be trimmed for the film because he had too much ruff around his neck to look like Old Yeller... of course.. in the book Old Yeller was also a bob tailed dog. sure glad they didnt go THAT far for book to film accuracy!
there arent many southern breeders that advertise pups for sale. if they do then you should probably steer clear of them. they're more than likely just selling the name and not quality. but once again i say it... they're working dogs. hardly ideal for a lazy house dog.
i wouldnt mind having a BMC one day... they're great multi-tasking dogs! kinda like Am.Bulls...
