I've have been trying to find the name to this 70's show all over the place and even the big retro TV sites can't do it.

This show starred a german shepard who would ride around with this guy in a jeep, and they would solve crimes and stuff.  It was kinda like the Hulk in that they never really stayed in one place two long.  The guy's jeep had this military style mobile phone, which in the 70's was pretty cool.

Does anybody remember this show besides me?

The Littlest Hobo(had a german shepherd, aired partly in the 70's, but as far as I can tell, no jeep)?

The Roy Rogers Show(had a german shepherd and a jeep, but it had other characters, and it aired in the 50's)?

Run Joe, Run(had a german shepherd, solved crimes and stuff, aired in the 70's...I don't see anything about a jeep, but it looks like this could be the show)

Gilgy, was that clip for real? I mean, I've heard of Run, Joe, Run, but:

"A dog...wanted for something he didn't do!"

...there's a helluva difference between "a crime he didn't commit" (The Fugitive, The Incredible Hulk) and "something he didn't do." What, dig up a flower bed? Chase a cat? Pee on the couch? 

(Never mind. Fishy's link explains, and even has the "crime he didn't commit" reference. Yiiiiiiii!)

Why are shows always about a guy on the run for a crime he didn't commit, where are all the shows about people on the run for crimes they did commit?
