Dogtanian Guide, Meaning , Facts, Information and Description
Dogtanian and the Three Muskehounds was a cartoon version of the classic Alexandre Dumas story of D'Artagnan and The Three Musketeers. Most of the characters were anthropomorphisms of dogs, hence the title of the cartoon. The main exception to this is the temptress Milady (a cat).The story follows a young Dogtanian (voiced by Cam Clarke in the English version) who travels to Paris in the 17th Century in order to become one of the King Louis XIII of France's musketeers (note that they are referred to as musketeers throughout the cartoon and only the title calls them muskehounds). He quickly befriends three musketeers (Porthos, Athos and Aramis) and falls in love with Juliette, a maid-in-waiting for Queen Anne of Austria.
The cartoon was created by Spanish studio BRB Internacional and made in Japan by Nippon Animation. It was first broadcast in 1981 in Spain (D'Artacan y los tres mosqueperros) and Japan (ワンワン三銃士), and the UK in 1985, with the English language adaptation by Dave Mallow and Doug Stone.

Sequel
In 1990 The Return of Dogtanian was released by BRB Internacional and Thames Television. It picks up the story ten years after the original with Dogtanian and Juliette now living together on the outskirts of Paris with their two children, Philippe and Fleur. The story is loosely based on the novel The Vicomte de Bragelonne also by Alexandre Dumas, itself building on the myth of The Man in the Iron Mask. Dave Mallow, who adapted the original to English, takes over as the voice of Dogtanian.This is an Article on Dogtanian. Page Contains Information, Facts Details or Explanation Guide About Dogtanian
