Production notes
Davey was a young boy who went on adventures with his dog Goliath. Goliath could talk and helped Davey and the family out in sticky predicaments. Sponsored by the Lutheran Council of Churches, the show's religious morals were very apparent.

The stop-motion process used for filming was called "Pixillation," a method also used for Clokey Productions' earlier series "Gumby."

Are You Lost?
For this wonderful little 15 minute short of Davey and Goliath, Davey is having a surprise birthday party. While Sally and Mom prepare Davey’s birthday party, Dad takes Davey and Goliath to the fair. While Dad, Davey and Goliath are enjoying the fair, Davey has a question, “Do people get separated from God?” Prior to this question, Dad had told Davey that they would have to be careful that he, Davey and Goliath do not get separated while they are at the fair.
You know what happened? Davey, Dad and Goliath were having so much fun at the fair that while Dad was purchasing some popcorn, Davey and Goliath wanders away. Davey and Goliath decide to ride the Ferris wheel. After a few more rides without Dad, Davey and Goliath stop having as much fun and realize that they are scared and lost. Dad continues to search for Davey and Goliath. Finally, Dad, Davey and Goliath find each other and Davey tells his father, “You came looking for me and Goliath, but does God also look for us when we are lost?” Dad tells Davey that God will continue to search for us when we are lost because He loves us so much. That statement alone reassures the viewer of the love of God.
