Epic Win: Lassie
Submitted by Devon R, who writes to us from the bottom of a well.
Admit it: When you see a rough collie frolicking in the park, you think to yourself “that’s a Lassie dog!” You know it’s true. Though the character of Lassie originated in a novel by author Eric Knight, we most often associate her with the many films and long-running television series in which she starred. We loved Lassie because she was so smart and helpful: She fetched help when Timmy fell down the well, when Timmy encountered a dangerous wild animal, and when Timmy fell down the well…again. Interesting fact: Though Lassie, the character, was female, all of the dogs that portrayed her were male. Take that to Trivia Night!
