It's a Dog's Life is a 1955 film.

Soundtrack

In 2011 Film Score Monthly released the complete scores of the seven Lassie feature films released by MGM between 1943 and 1955 as well as Elmer Bernstein’s score for It's a Dog's Life in a collectible package titled Lassie Come Home: The Canine Cinema Collection limited to only 1000 copies.

Due to the era when these scores were recorded, nearly half of the music masters have been lost so the scores had to be reconstructed and restored from the best available sources, mainly the Music and Effects tracks as well as monaural ¼″ tapes.

The score for It's a Dog's Life was composed by Elmer Bernstein. It was released in its entirety and in stereo, as it comes from the three-track magnetic film era.
