** When we first meet Copper, Chief is excited, thinking that he's getting a treat. Upon learning that the surprise Slade is talking about is actually a puppy, Chief is dismayed and annoyed. He does all he can to ignore the pup, even pushing him out of the way of the barrel where he sleeps. When does Chief melt? When Copper curls up on his leg and falls asleep. Chief lays down his head and gives a small smile as he falls back asleep.

* The moment of Widow Tweed squirting milk into Todd's mouth from the cow's udder was based on a moment from Creator/DonBluth's childhood. As a boy, Bluth was tasked with milking his family's cows, and a feral kitten that lived in the barn would come during milking time. Bluth fed the kitten by squirting milk in its direction, and the cat learned to catch the milk in its mouth.

* When the spring thaw arrives, Slade, Copper and Chief drive home from their hunting trip. While Chief is (understandably) jealous about Copper and Slade's close relationship and upset that he's riding in the back as opposed to the front seat...Slade tells Chief to cheer up because without him, Copper wouldn't have turned out to be such a fine hunting dog. Emphasized by Copper giving Chief a lick and then joining Slade in a howling session. Say what you will about Slade...but it's clear the love he has for Chief and Copper is true.

* After the fight with the bear, it seems that Amos Slade will become an UngratefulBastard and blast the wounded Tod away. However, Copper, who earlier tried to kill Tod, stands up for Tod and pleads to Slade to be reasonable. This causes Slade to [[HeelRealization realize what he's about to do, and after he spends a moment feeling shameful about himself]], he spares Tod's life.

** And again, Copper stopping before making another small smile and resting near Chief in the ending [[spoiler: presumably for sensing Tod's scent (who is looking at him from the distance with Vixie) and being glad that his friend is still around]].
