Production: William PettigrewDouglas MacDonald

Script: Les Drew

This hilarious animated film communicates over forty safety tips for homes with infants and young children. The film's hero is a very earnest, somewhat pompous, but endearing dog called Wally. A "professional" in home safety, Wally is assigned to a house with an infant whose parents have little safety consciousness. Accidents and near-accidents succeed each other with lightning speed, constantly putting Wally to the test. This comic film will help viewers of all ages become "home-safety smart." For parents, babysitters, and the elementary school classroom.
