(Pioneer VHS and DVD) The USA Pioneer DVD does not include the original Japanese language audio track. I have both the English dub of DOG OF FLANDERS (1997) and the Japanese-language version with subtitles. I prefer the voice-acting in the Japanese version and I think it makes a big difference in the overall feel of the film.
He also has a dog (thus Dog of Flanders, the place where this story is taking place) and a two other friends who are most likely in similar situation as him (orphans iirc). So The story starts off and we learn that he really likes painting, but he can't get any material to do this and his dog had cruel previous master... and then the grandpa dies.
Cheryl Ladd 's ex-husband, David Ladd, played the part of Nello in a previous film adaptation of A Dog of Flanders (1960). Just before we see the traveling circus camp, Eloise's hair has braids in it. They disappear after she gets up and makes her way to the camp.
Poor, but happy, young Nello and his grandfather live alone, delivering milk as a livelihood, in the outskirts of Antwerp, a city in Flanders (the Flemish or Dutch-speaking part of modern-day Belgium).

By what name was A Dog of Flanders (1999) officially released in Canada in English?
In 19th century Belgium, in the Flanders countryside, lived a young boy with an artistic flair named Nello, and his faithful companion Patrash. Though poor in the physical sense, the two friends shared a rich life along with Alois, one of Nello's neighbors, and his grandfather, his last living relative.
This movie is very depressing, I would say on the same level as Grave of the fireflies, if not more so. So if you don't want to be depressed and potentially cry buckets I highly suggest avoiding this. So does this movie have any worth aside from being an emotional tear jerker? Honestly, not much...
Full Length Movies. (45 minutes+) Movie series included but only the first one. Movies that are attached to anime series aren't included but if they came first they are. Made a note of ones that I think are stand out movies that all anime fans should watch on some need to finish that part still
