Poco... Little Dog Lost is a 1977 American independent family adventure drama film about a young girl, Kim (Michelle Ashburn), and her dog, Poco.

Plot

Early in the film, both Kim and her mother are injured in a car accident. An emergency medical crew arrives to help them and bring them to the hospital. But Kim's dog, Poco, gets spooked during the commotion and runs off into the desert.

Lost in the dangerous wilds, Poco treks across the wilderness in search of Kim. As Kim recovers, she searches for Poco as well.

Poco has several adventures as he makes his way through scenic, diverse, and occasionally treacherous California terrain, from the high desert, the Sierra Nevada mountains, a ghost town, and a romp through Yosemite National Park. The dog also has several encounters along the way, including a kind old gas station owner (John Steadman) and a benevolent gold prospector (Chill Wills), as well as a few other animal friends, all of whom help Poco on his journey home.

gollark: So, firstly, is your terminal server connected to the, er, server, in the rack GUI?

gollark: Well, maybe not that slow, I don't know the exact details of OC networking, but at least would make latency a bit higher, and stress any relays you use.

gollark: 4 drives to a server would allow... 12MB? each, which is much more than you can do now, and would give each node a decent amount of computation power (especially with data cards), but splitting everything across the network would be sloooow.

gollark: You could possibly make some sort of storage clustering thing - servers can have 4 drives each, after all, and use all of them for remote-accessible storage if they network-boot with an EEPROM.

gollark: But accessed as one peripheral *from another computer*, I mean.
