It would have fun to see him attempt this routine and his friends' reaction to it- which obviously was not favorable. <br /><br />A kid watching this cartoon might not think much of a anthropomorphized dog-kid hanging out with 'human' kids, but watching it as an adult I do find it a bit odd.

Lee is right-on in his observation above! <br /><br />Doggie Daddy did have another job – as a watchdog (or, perhaps more accurately, a security guard) which Augie once wanted to emulate. The title of the particular cartoon eludes me, because these are not on DVD for me to review.<br /><br />If there is any criticism to be made, it is that Augie is inconsistently characterized – sometimes as a boy-genius and sometimes not. Though, maybe there was an “evolution” of sorts that I just failed to observe because I have no way of viewing the cartoons in any sort of order, or totality. <i>…Thanks again, Warner Home Video!</i> <br />Joe Torciviahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00421096229407174474noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5403931334822730200.post-44505498700398568382014-10-18T08:22:48.732-07:002014-10-18T08:22:48.732-07:00I can’t help but think if this were “Yogi’s Gang” ...<i> I can’t help but think if this were “Yogi’s Gang” or some such ‘70s cartoon dreck, the “be yourself” message would be unsubtly and didactically hammered into viewers in the least entertaining manner possible. </i><br /><br />The difference between Joe Barbera having to make the network boys happy (especially network boys who'd like to become network men, and move into meaningful prime-time entertainment and news programing) and Joe Barbera simply trying to make Kellogg's and Leo Burnett happy (just make sure the box of Gro-Pup is animated into the Snuffles sequences and you're good to go). <br /><br />This is a nice cartoon to end the reviews of the series on, because it shows the difference between the late 50s-early 60s H-B efforts, which were only trying to entertain the viewer and attract as many viewers as possible, and they way things had gotten a decade later, where if you were going to revive the characters (or, a few years later, Tom & Jerry) it had to be justified in some socially responsible way, either via fun-killing messaging or de-fanging most of the theatrical-based bits that made the original TV cartoons enjoyable in the first place.J Leehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15175515543694122729noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5403931334822730200.post-58237123979677289162014-10-18T08:16:04.091-07:002014-10-18T08:16:04.091-07:00Achacha.!

Farewell Doggie, wherever you are..:) I noted that Doggie and Augie had one ear in those scenes...Maltese, of course, also used a soft shoe by Mama Bear in the WB short "A Bear for Punishent" (ironically, also a last short, for the Three Bears),1951).Pokeyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15936757752447320636noreply@blogger.com
