9 year old Patricia Warren's Georgia life is turned upside down after her father dies in a horse riding accident. She and her dog Banjo are sent to live with her uptight aunt Elizabeth in Boston. Elizabeth is not eager to have the child and not happy at all with the dog. She had recently broken off her engagement to Dr. Bob. Pat decides to do some matchmaking. This is a lot of down-home sweetness flowing like molasses. It starts with bird-dogging in the old south to plenty of doggie slapstick. It's all very broad and played to its utter golly gee most by young Sharyn Moffett. It's just so broad.
