Snoopy, Come Home

Snoopy, Come Home! is a 1972 American animated musical comedy-drama film directed by Bill Melendez and written by Charles M. Schulz based on the Peanuts comic strip. The film marks the on-screen debut of Woodstock, who had first appeared in the strip in 1966. Released in May 1972, the film was released by National General Pictures, produced by Lee Mendelson Films and Cinema Center Films (in their final production). The film serves as a standalone sequel to 1969's A Boy Named Charlie Brown.

Other than Snoopy's Reunion and Snoopy! The Musical, this and the 2015 film The Peanuts Movie are the only filmed Peanuts productions not to have the name "Charlie Brown" in the title.

Plot

Snoopy and the rest of the Peanuts gang go to the beach for the day. Once there, Snoopy promises to go back to the beach the next day to meet up with Peppermint Patty. After Charlie Brown has gone home to play Monopoly with the others, he notices Snoopy is late and remarks he is tired of Snoopy being late. The next day, Snoopy is thrown off the beach due to a new "No Dogs Allowed on this beach" rule (thus setting a running gag in the film). Then Snoopy gets thrown out of a library due to his disruptive behavior and another "No Dogs Allowed in library" rule. He then gets into a fight with Linus over his blanket, and later beats Lucy in a boxing match.
