Dogtanian & the Three Muskehounds (Spanish: D'Artacán y los Tres Mosqueperros; ワンワン三銃士 Wanwan Sanjushi) is a Spanish-Japanese animated series based on The Three Musketeers by Alexandre Dumas, but with anthropomorphic animals, mostly dogs, as the protagonists. The series was a co-production of BRB International (Spain) and Nippon Animation (Japan) and originally aired from 1981-1982.

A sequel series, The Return of Dogtanian, was produced in 1989 by BRB International and Wang Film Productions in Taiwan.

Synopsis In 17th century France, young Dogtanian travels to Paris to fulfill his ambition to become one of the King's Musketeers. There, he meets the three musketeers, Aramis, Athos and Porthos, and with them he begins his adventure fighting against the evil plans of Cardinal Richelieu. It also follows Dogtanian as he falls in love with Juliette, niece of Monsieur Bonancieux and trusted maid of the queen, and befriends a mouse named Pip.

Notes

• Very few of the English voice cast reprised their roles for The Return of Dogtanian. The few exceptions are Rebecca Forstadt as Juliette, Steve Kramer as Pip and Mike Reynolds as Widimer. Due to these cast changes, online credits often mix up who voiced who in which series.
• The Sony VHS releases of the series give its name as Dogtanian and the Three Musketeers and have a different version of the theme, with the same lyrics as were later used in The Return of Dogtanian.
