Les 3 mousquetaires

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.

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.

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!

Also known as "Dogtanian and the Three Muskehounds", this animated TV series was memorable in the lives of many people when they were children, including me.

Basically it is the legendary story of D'Artagnan and the three musketeers, but because this is an animated version, it has a charm of its own and a certain nostalgia feeling I can't explain. Being an animated version, this one is naturally a version with anthropomorphic animals, in this case dogs (as you can see by its title).

This is a classic animated TV series perfectly suitable for children, being charming, sweet and timeless, unlike most today's cartoons which are ugly, uninteresting, pretty violent, almost painfully noisy and often contain destructive humor. This animated TV show is from another time, a gold generation which was the very best to be a child and when everything was totally different.

The opening song is absolutely adorable and timeless. Put it this way, it is a lovely song. So memorable that once you hear it, you'll never forget it for as long as you live.

Although the popular story of D'Artagnan and his three musketeers is french, this is actually a Spanish production, which manages to be loyal to the french story yet has a characteristic Latin enchant, resulting in a great combination of both.

D'Artacan (or Dogtanian) lives many adventures with his partners and friends (the 3 muskehounds), but he has also an original and humorous little friend: a very talkative and energetic anthropomorphic mouse that speaks with a strong Latin accent. But I can't remember the mouse's name...

I always found Milady (an anthropomorphic cat) to be a strange character: very mysterious and enigmatic. She's the kind of character that at times seems to be a brief friend, but is also a troublemaker for Dogtanian as she often hypnotizes him.

In conclusion: this is a cartoon to have fond memories of.

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.
