[5] The film was directed by Don Chaffey and shot at Shepperton Studios and on location in Scotland.

A little Skye Terrier named Bobby is the pet of a Scottish farmer and his wife but the dog loves an old shepherd hired on the farm called Auld Jock.

Mr. Brown is also present in the court, but he tells Mr. Traill he is sick, and can't get out of bed.

Central character is a little Skye terrier, and this engaging little animal is quite irresistible...Patiently and brilliantly trained, Bobby wraps up the stellar honors for himself and the humans, knowing they don't stand a chance, wisely are content to play chorus.

Laurence Naismith gives a strong, likeable performance as the kindly eating-house owner who takes Bobby under his wing.
