@CnL808 I think Barkley is supposed to be a sheepdog of some kind, judging by the hair covering his eyes

I can't understand why my eyes are watery right now. I loved this show as a kid and there's something about this classic theme that moves me for some reason. You even got that special harmonica bonus in the beginning before the theme started to play. This is great!

@CnL808 He's an Old English Sheepdog, his name is Barkley.

I used to want to play with Barkley so bad when I was little.

This used to make me sad since it meant I would have to wait "three sleeps" before another Sesame Street episode. :(

Does anyone know what breed the dog is towards the ending?
