There was a movie comedy around 1969 (no later than '72) where when the girl got married, her mother gave her a book on training your dog. Each step was outlined in the book, and the implementation with the husband was illustrated in the movie.
Funny movie, I liked it, still makes me smile. The steps in making your dog a loyal well behaved animal also applied to making a man happy, co-operative. At different segments, the book was referred to, reading from it, applying that lesson. Some made me recognize that women often treat their husband badly, without the respect or words, approval shown a dog in training.
The movie showed a well appointed daughter and mother, well off (rich or semi rich), usually talking by phone, mother instructing the daughter about applying the lessons. Might have had a slight French accent. I recall well dressed in woman suits, hats. The girl was somewhere between 20 and 30 or so.
The movie name was something like Guide to a happy marriage, or perhaps "perfect marriage" but the title might have been "How to have a Happy marriage".
My wife at the time didn't *get* the movie, the points it was making about how to treat people, I did. She didn't understand lots of things, self centered.
Explains in after sight why she is on her 4th husband now, and I have another wife that has more understanding.
Would like to find it on DVD, watch it with my wife.
What is the movie, related info, actors?
Training Your Dog at Home - Save Thousands of Dollars on Dog Training
Recommended Answer:
It's "If a Man Answers" with Sandra Dee and Bobby Darin.
Secrets to German Shepherd Dog Training
- It is If a Man Answers with Bobby Darin and Sandra Dee, Dee marries Darin and to keep him happy her mother suggests a book on dog training saying that is how she trained her father to be a good husband. It's a ggod comedy. I have it on DVD and got it thru Columbia House DVD movie club.
- I believe it had Marilyn Monroe in it. (I've seen the movie, but I can't remember the title. I want to say How to Marry a Millionaire, but I don't think that's right)
Might be a cool movie to remake given how most people treat there dogs like little people nowadays (and treat other people like crap)
