I watched this series in the '80's & I only recall bits & pieces of some of the episodes It didn't leave a lasting impact on me until 2 days ago I watched this episode for the first time on TV where episodes are shown on the weekends & I was totally blown away by the shockingly unexpected surprise ending, It made my hair stand up & gave me goosebumps & affected me so much I was inspired to find the series on You Tube & to search for this episode. I didn't see this in prime time otherwise I would've remembered it.

I will not give away the story but I was perplexed as to why Mark & Jonathan an angel didn't figure out that the dog was asking for their help. Even when the dog jumped on the hood of the car. Dogs just don't act like that in normal situations.

The ending really packs a wallop & is unforgettable. Michael Landon really knocked it out of the park with this episode.
