Arliss Coates

Arliss Coates is the tritagonist of the film Old Yeller and its sequel Savage Sam. He is the younger brother of the protagonist (and book's original narrator) Travis Coates. He is a curious little boy who adores Old Yeller from the beginning, as he feels the need for a good hunting dog.

Arliss was played by Kevin Corcoran in both films.
