Man's Best Friend

Description

The opening song is called "Swing Low, Sweet Harriet." The show then moves on to several interesting stories. Ripley talks about man's best friend throughout history, tells the story behind a song that helped make a king famous, takes a phone call from Harriet Hilliard, and shares the tale of Bozo, a dog who can read minds.

Ripley's Believe It or Not! is an American franchise founded by Robert Ripley, which deals with bizarre events and items so strange and unusual that readers might question the claims. Originally a newspaper panel, the Believe It or Not feature proved popular and was later adapted into a wide variety of formats, including radio, film, television, comic books, a chain of museums, and a book-series.
