What are some differences between the Old Yeller book and the Old Yeller movie?

The only major difference between the book and the film is that in the book, Mrs. Coates convinces Travis to shoot Old Yeller shortly after the dog fights the wolf and is exposed to rabies (during the incubation period), whereas in the film, Travis insists on waiting until Old Yeller develops symptoms before killing him. In the book Travis and Yeller had not fully recovered from the wounds they received from the hogs. Mrs. Coates and Bud Searcy's daughter Lisbeth had gone to burn the cow carcass and return being chased by the rabid wolf which is kept at bay by Yeller. Travis shoots the wolf as it is about to kill Yeller but in a cruel twist of fate is then forced to kill Yeller because he has been exposed to rabies will eventually become a deadly threat to the family. There is also the minor difference in that Old Yeller is bob-tailed in the book. Whereas, in the movie, he has a long tail that arches over his back (similar to the tails of Arctic sled dogs). Another major difference is that Old Yeller appears as a Lab/Mastiff mix, while in the book he is implied to be a Black Mouth Cur.

What is old yeller about?

It is an animal fiction the Boy and Dog variety and is unusual as it has a tragic ending. The Dog ( Old Yeller, from his color scheme, not barking habits!) is deliberately shot as he has become rabid from a bite from a snake ( in some versions it is a wolf) anyhow the dog is shot dead- no possibly (grey) ending of the dog merely, say wondering off in a sort of MIA limbo- the animal is also shot deliberately by the Father figure- or Uncle, in the story. Automatically, this destroys any possibility of continuity ( such as the lengthy Lassie series). I am aware of some other animal tales(about pets, not wild animals, who get into fatal fights all the time) but this one stands out. in the Rambunctious Doberman, the title dog is accidentally killed by an automobile backing out of a driveway, as I recall ( radio drama, not TV) The Ice Pan deals with animal sacrifice by an explorer lost in the arctic ice- he uses the dead dogs to construct a sort of danger flag or banner/ That took place around l908 and was based on an incident in the life of Grenfell, an explorer-doctor. How the dogs were dispatched is not disclosed to the audience. ( I heard two radio dramas based on this incident- my guess he shot them. so it goes support the A.S.P.C.A. no need for this sort of thing.

Do you need an apostrophe when saying The Robinsons- Megan and Travis?

When you are talking about the two Robinsons, Megan and Travis, the s serves to indicate that the noun is plural, therefore it does not need an apostrophe. You would only need an apostrophe to indicate the possessive form of the word, as in, that is Mr. Robinson's car.
