Pearls Before Swine by Stephan Pastis for April 02, 2006
Transcript:
"So what's going on downtown this weekend?" "A big film festival... They're showing 'Old Yeller'." "What's 'Old Yeller'?" "One of the saddest films ever... It's about a boy and his dog." "What happens?" "The dog gets real sick at the end of the movie and they have to shoot him." "That's terrible." "Oh, yeah... It's one of the most heart-rending endings ever." "Audiences must just bawl." "Of course they bawl... What other reaction can there be to a scene like that?..." "Eat da dog!! Eat da dog!"

Old Yeller isn’t sad… the dog got shot. Everyone else lived. It had a good ending in my book.

According to the book, the dog was bit by a rattle snake protecting the boy, so it was put down to relieve its suffering.
