this is the sort of cartoon that you love as a child but when you see it through adult eyes you realise that while you may still be fond of it,it should remain in the rosy land of childhood memories
The animation is good but it's nothing special.The characters are more cuddly than daring,as they were in the books.Dogtanian is still feisty and headstrong but as this is a children's cartoon they had to remove his amourous nature. For most of the series the cartoon stays amazingly close to the books and it's only in the concluding episodes that it strays a little This cartoon starts off strongly but towards the end of it's mammoth 26 episodes it starts to get weaker and you are willing it to finish. In conclusion, watch it if you are heavily into childhood nostalgia or you want to show it to your kids ,otherwise leave it to the memories of childhood.Only for the very young. 6out of 10 rating.

I have fond memories of this show, the animation was a bit patchy but that never seemed to matter too much. The theme tune was superb and was accompanied by dogs barking to it in the background! Obviously the idea of using Dogs as characters wore a little thin on the creators as only 'Dogtanian' got a doggy name while the rest of the characters got the names they had in the Dumas book. They also extended every aspect of the book as far as they could go, I don't know how many episodes there were but it was a lot and when you consider that the film faithfully reproduced the book in 2 hours this was perhaps overkill. Anyway, still a lot of fun.
In the late '70s, up to the mid '80s, there were a lot of awesome shows being made in Europe. This is just one of them, coming specifically from Spain, with some great help from the Japanese.
The classic Alexandre Dumas' novels get a respectful adaptation in a world of anthropomorphic dogs, and children everywhere went crazy over it.
The character design, the action scenes, and the song, were all perfect, but what made this series special was its message and its heart. Dogtanian was a kid that truly wanted to do good for others, and through hard work and some humbling lessons became a true hero.
Inspiring as well as good fun!

I've just watched "Dogtanian & the Three Muskehounds" one of my favourite childhood shows along with Around the World with Willy Fog. I was wondering was it as good as I remembered it when I watched it as a 10 year old in 1985 (what a great time of my life that was)? The answer is a big YES. The animation is charming, and the anthropomorphization idea of animals as people is just great & cute. Awesome voice acting by Cam Clarke as Dogtanian & rebecca forstadt as Juliette. I have not seen the new version of this show but this one is just fantastic. I wish I could go back to 1985, bring back so many happy memories of family life, boy do I miss my parents.
Dogtanian and the Three Muskehounds (as it was called in the UK) was a decent show. The animation may not have been the best ever and it wasn't the most memorable show but it had it's moments.
Dogtanian was a puppy who came to Paris to join the Kings Own Guard. He manages to fall in love with Juliette and teams with three swordsters by the name of Athos, Porthos and Aramis to engage in battle. It was one for all and all for one.
I wouldn't call the show a classic cartoon show but the characters were quite interesting and it is certainly worth a look.

Did you know
- TriviaThe names of Athos and Porthos were switched around, compared with Alexandre Dumas's novels, so that Porthos was the intelligent leader whilst Athos was the big greedy sidekick. The Japanese dub switches them back around into their original roles.
- Crazy credits"This story is based upon the famous novel by Alexandre Dumas. In all their adventures, our musketeers hold true to the two virtues that should never be forgotten... honor and friendship."
