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 CZcams!
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.
Loved this show as a kid. I used to worry for the dog at the end of each show about where he was going to stay and how he was going to find something to eat.
This brings back memories. I remember waiting The littlest hobo when I was a kid. My dad was alive then. But that was a long time ago. I miss you Dad 💔😔🥀⚰️
I had an autographed photo of London. My Dad (of blessed memory) and I went to Castle Loma in Toronto. What a wonderful day. Thank you for reminding me.
I watched this when I was a kid in Japan in the 1960s. Of course in Japanese. I loved what they did with the theme song. Same tune but, upbeat and in Japanese. You should check it out.
I finally found the version of the theme song I remember! Something made me think of this show today, a show I hadn’t thought about since I watched it in the 1960s. I always enjoyed it.
I hear ya. I've just spent 1/2 an hour, searching for this version, I remember as a kid. Thought I was going crazy, when I kept hearing the other versions. Didn't know this one started in 63. "Travelin, around from town to town. sometimes, I think I'll settle down" . I knew it was from this show, and glad this website has it covered. Thanks CinPD. :)
@@Offdrive3 Who/what is "Real Man Vox"? And who sings this version? Good question. I see something below the title that says, "Blue Water Sailor". Maybe? Don't know.
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 CZcams!
If anyone has season 1 ep.10 "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.
I miss London Venus Raura Toro and Thorne..... Kyrie was before I was old enough to remember the movies were filmed in Toronto [ Toro] Canada ....I miss my dogs at least someone was kind enough to find this for me it is like I found part of myself that I missed London and the hobos were my childhood friends ....
At the 20:10 mark, the dog trainer & owner of The Littlest Hobo, Charles P. Eisenman, makes an appearance as a deck-hand aboard the tugboat "Elsie" as it encounters the cruise boat "Dorisar".
these made my saturdays in the 60s...especially one episode he (if I remember right) saves a washed up Goalie from bettors wanting him to throw a game? Been searchin that one for 59 years
from a better era of TV when the world was still fairly normal.... no swearing or excessive violence on TV.... since the 80's society has been on a continual downhill slide.... decent morals are now a thing of the past and needy self entitled people rule.
The 1958 movie credits the song "road without end" performed by Randy Sparks... I have that theme song stuck in memory forever! So glad u posted this movie...
@@brucemorris6331 yea there was a few, all/most related to the original "London" in this show, the guy who owned and trained them used different dogs for different scenes as some could perform differ stunts better, if you watch one of the episodes that are in colour from the later series you can see the different dogs used as some are lighter and more tan and the like as they were bred for their reversed markings, the wiki page for this show has all the names and such

I didn't grow up in a country that had this wonderful show. Now I'm trying to find everything I can on this beautiful dog! Does anybody know where I could purchase the entire series on DVD? Thanks. I 💛 this pooch.
@@conspiracynewsnet2562, it wasn’t that long ago. The 1960s wasn’t the Stone Age, y’know. Just like now, some people were just cruel and uncaring. Some things never change.
London was in the 1979-1986 tv series ,how would London be in the 1963 first version? I was understanding it was 6 different dogs ( look same) in early version before the return of the second tv series with (1dog) LONDON🤔

I was just the same 🌹🌸🌺
Nah I always knew he would be fine.
😂🤣💯💯💯💯
I still do after all these years. My heart breaks that he's alone even though he likes it that way.
This brings back memories.
I remember waiting The littlest hobo when I was a kid. My dad was alive then. But that was a long time ago. I miss you Dad 💔😔🥀⚰️
This show brings me back to when life was simpler. I sure miss those days.
I'm an early genz, and I'm glad I grew up with this still playing on TV when I was a kid. Definitely built my love for dogs.
I loved watching this as a child. Brings back lovely memories.
Same 😭😟
Me too 🥲
Knowing that he would end up alone at the end, I use to cry at the end of the show.

Who sings this one. Real man deep vocal. The other versions are too boyband for my ears.
@@Offdrive3 Who/what is "Real Man Vox"? And who sings this version? Good question. I see something below the title that says, "Blue Water Sailor". Maybe? Don't know.
@@joequillun7790 vox = vocals. Sounded like a real man I meant.
@@Offdrive3 Oh, OK. Sounds a little like Roger Miller.
...my mind is blown. Having grown up with the 80's version, I now find out that that was a reboot of this...
I honestly didn't know. 🤯🤯🤯
I was today years old when I found out
This is the one I watched and the song I sang. 🙂🐕🦺 way back in the '60s
I just now found out this series was rebooted.
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.

I always used to cry at the end of the show cause I felt sorry he didn't have an owner.
I was sad too at first, but my mom would say that the dog was about to go on a new and fun adventure. I loved adventures so I wasn't sad anymore.
Loved this shows
It made me cry cos London was a stray

In the early 60's in Memphis this played on WHBQ-TV. Gentler times.
I remember the theme song from my childhood.
At the 20:10 mark, the dog trainer & owner of The Littlest Hobo, Charles P. Eisenman, makes an appearance as a deck-hand aboard the tugboat "Elsie" as it encounters the cruise boat "Dorisar".
I love the original theme song
Amen!
Loved this show when I was little I'm 65 now and still remember a few episodes wild bill from Worcester mass
I used to love the reruns of this in the early 70s. Always wanted an Alsatian dog after watching this.
I don’t remember any of the stories but I certainly remember the intro.
20:05 There's something wrong with a man who would let a dog drown!
You said it, brother!
these made my saturdays in the 60s...especially one episode he (if I remember right) saves a washed up Goalie from bettors wanting him to throw a game? Been searchin that one for 59 years
This was such a great show, my mum tell's me I use to get upset at the end. Because the dog didn't find his owner, Lol 😂 I think I remember that.
Omg! I used to get upset too!
@@hartleyharemackay me three! I’d cry every time,
Except he didn’t have an owner, did he? He preferred to be alone, that’s why he always left at the end of every episode.
I used to love this when I was a little girl.
Great treat great quality ♥️

I have that theme song stuck in memory forever! So glad u posted this movie...
Love these dramas London is so cute 🙂
flashback. loved this as a kid.
That was way better than I remembered.
I’d been looking for the Littlest Hobo.
First time I saw an episode since it disappeared from Philly TV in the early 60s.
I didn't know there was a 60's version! Cool.
Yeah, this is the version I remember. I used to watch this show as a teenager in the 1960s. Seeing it now, it really takes me back!
25:03...this is the song I remember from my childhood
I loved this show. Had my older sister go get an autographed photo of the group of dogs that played London’s part.
Group of dogs?

Who is singing the intro song tune? It's the best version by far, that deep blokey country voice 🙌. Almost Johnny Cash like.
Excelente , Very good
Brings back a lot of memories, thanks for uploading.
This show started in 1963 four years after I started my lifelong live affair with pointy-eared dogs like London. 👍🐕🦺❤️😎
This looks like it was filmed in Canada like Horseshoe Bay in the Vancouver area.
Awesome
The poor man's Lassie.
My farther told me I used to cry every night what was going to happen to the littlest hobo I was very young.
Bravo, Uncle Buck and Uncle Stuart!
I didn't grow up in a country that had this wonderful show. Now I'm trying to find everything I can on this beautiful dog! Does anybody know where I could purchase the entire series on DVD? Thanks. I 💛 this pooch.
The boat captain that helped hobo seems like nick adonidas..
I remember the theme as someone whistling
Really? I don’t remember any whistling.
That would be the 1979 Theme of TLH, "Maybe Tomorrow" by Terry Bush.
I am horrified that they threw that poor dog off the ferry ....
It was a different time back then, no one knew it was wrong.
The prop guys didn't throw "London" off the ferry, they just threw a stick into the water and said fetch.
@@conspiracynewsnet2562, it wasn’t that long ago. The 1960s wasn’t the Stone Age, y’know. Just like now, some people were just cruel and uncaring. Some things never change.

It’s not the same dog
Anyone know where this was filmed?
Hola, me gustaría saber si alguien me ayuda a encontrarlo en español....
4:26 That boatman should have used another word than "gun".....after all, London WAS one!
London was a gun?
@@bwsmyhero No. A son of a.....well, you know!
Sounds like Lassie...lol
This is a small picky point, but shouldn't the dog in The Littlest Hobo be little?
Well, he’s smaller than a human hobo, right? I think that’s what was meant.
He's littler than a human hobo.
80s theme tune is better. Nice episode.
Whaaaat this was American!?
I read that it was filmed in Canada with many American actors.
The Alsation at it's best, long before the stupid and barbaric Kennel Club ruined it's back.
I've seen littler stay dogs than that one. : )
Picky, picky! :-)
60th like ;)
Sell the freedom machine make me sick
