Footrot Flats |
 | | Footrot Flats was a comic strip written by New Zealand cartoonist Murray Ball[?]. |
 | | It ran from 1975 until 1999 in newspapers around the world, and resulted in a series of 27 books (collecting the newspaper strips, with additional material), a stage musical, and an animated film. |
 | | The cartoon was based around the life of Wal Footrot's sheep dog, "Dog", on their farm Footrot Flats (hence the title), and the other characters, human and animal, that came into their lives. |
