About as much as I have interest in Oswald the Rabbit, I also developed some for Pooch the Pup. Both these characters have been featured in Walter Lantz shorts.
Pooch here is in his initial design, although he would change in the last three films. In the story, he delivers a piece of meat but the feline of the place runs off with it. The cat then puts a rope around his leg and pulls him around the house. But how Pooch ends up in that ride, the same would also happen to the cat.
The catchy musical score here was made by James Dietrich, who happens to be the same person who provided sound to those 1927 Disney Oswald shorts which were originally silent.
If there's anything that makes heroes popular, it's that they can win in the end but should have some mishaps in the middle.
