Production Background
On 6 May 1978, the ABC Weekend Special aired an adaptation of the book, and over the next four years, The Puppy and its three sequels, which used various actors’ voices for Petey the puppy, were repeatedly shown on the Weekend Special.
In 1982, Petey could be seen weekly as the second half of The Scooby & Scrappy-Doo/Puppy Hour, with Billy Jacoby voicing Petey and Nancy McKeon as his female puppy friend Dolly. The following year, the show played solo as The Puppy’s Further Adventures. Reruns of the show were shown on ABC and later CBS as The Puppy's Great Adventures.
