"Today, I consider myself the luckiest dog on the face of the earth. While I actually appeared on TV screens before 'Mister Ed,' in the classic 1950s series 'Adventures of Rin Tin Tin,' his trailblazing helped me secure my (admittedly less memorable) comeback in the '80s spin-off 'Rin Tin Tin: K-9 Cop.' I was never blessed with a speaking role, but I did help secure the American frontier."
