The Ugly Dachshund

I must agree with the reviewer who said "Dean Jones was just collecting another paycheck," that pretty much sums it up. I realize this is Disney and did not go into it expecting Oscar worthy drama, but in our home we... Full review

Have loved this movie, since first seeing it 40 years ago. Sweet and charming, witty and fun. The dogs are of course adorable, and the plot simple and captivating. Mark Garrison, who is referred to in the summary as Jim,... Full review

Although I'm an avid fan of the animated Disney classics, I must admit that Disney also used to do very good live-action movies back then. This is one of them. Even so, there are other Disney live-action films that I... Full review

This movie is full of both gags, and tear jerking moments. It starts off with Mark Garrison (Dean Jones) and his wife Fran (Suzanne Pleshette) taking their Dachsund Dante to the vet. She is having pups. Well she gives birth... Full review

Sexist attitudes, stereotyped bourgeois-suburban setting, and questionable treatment of the animals make for discomfort throughout. (Dachshunds, for example, should never leap... Full review

I first saw The Ugly Dachshund before I owned or shall I say a longhaired dachshund owned me. After seeing the movie the second time, I realized the dachshunds did not need extra training to totally upset a household. A... Full review

As an adult, I watch it over and over again! This is indeed one of the cutest movies I've ever seen and not to mention the best. If your child likes dogs, this is a MUST see film. Some films... Full review

One good example of this in the 1966 film The Ugly Dachshund , a light yet enjoyable film. This is a fun family movie. This film has some fun background music. There are a lot of funny scenes stitched together to make this sitcom like movie. ... Full Review
