    I had a German Shepard when I was a child growing up named "Hobo" after the Star of this show.
    He lived 14 years and was a loyal guard dog and member of my family of the highest order.
    The only time I ever saw my Daddy cry is when we had to put this majestic great German Shepard dog down.😪😰😥😢😓
    My Daddy and I loved this show and I'm delighted to have found it here on TH-cam!

      My family too enjoyed this show. We had a dog at the time also, but not a German Shepard, but he was protective. Since then I've had only two other dogs. They are family indeed.

    This took me back to my childhood and watching “The Littlest Hobo” I really wish there was a Time Machine that would take me back to those innocent times😢 Life is so destructive and filled with hate that makes me question the fate of humanity. This was a wonderful escape to better times and I was glad to find it on TH-cam!

      Thought I was going crazy, when I kept hearing the other versions. Didn't know this one started in 63.

    "Furlong" I wouldn't mind seeing it uploaded...my dad had a small credited scene....he played a guard trying to stop London from entering a horse racetrack. Some of these episodes were filmed in Vancouver.
    45+ years later I did an episode of Psych at the same racetrack...
    but it was uncredited and I just looked at horses.
