101 Dalmatians (1961)
When a litter of dalmatian puppies are abducted by the minions of Cruella De Vil, the parents must find them before she uses them for a diabolical fashion statement.
In a Disney animation classic, Dalmatian Pongo is tired of his bachelor-dog life. He spies lovely Perdita and maneuvers his master, Roger, into meeting Perdita's owner, Anita. The owners fall in love and marry, keeping Pongo and Perdita together too. After Perdita gives birth to a litter of 15 puppies, Anita's old school friend Cruella De Vil wants to buy them all. Roger declines her offer, so Cruella hires the criminal Badun brothers to steal them -- so she can have a fur coat.

- Disney made a new TC series called "101 Dalmation Street". I LOVE the animation and all the mysteries and fun to go along with it!
- CuteBunnies almost 8 yearsSpots! Spots! Spots! Pongo is looking for a girl dalmatian. When he meets Perdita, he marries her and they have puppies. But Cruella De Vil steals their puppies! I like that the first part of the story is narrated by Pongo himself because it is interesting to hear Pongo's thoughts and feelings. Also, not very many movies are this literate. I also like that Pongo and Perdita have different colored collars so you can tell them apart. Cruella De Vil is one of the most famous (and evil) villains of all time. Her henchmen (Horace and Jasper) are an unforgettable duo. During the adventure, Pongo and Perdita meet different creatures, which makes the movie even more interesting. The end of the movie was very sweet. Arf arf! 🐾
