When I said I was cancelling the blog, I just meant that I was giving Squarespace the boot. That place sucked. Here is a lot more space for me to stretch my creative wings. It&#8217;s the same great taste, but with a whole new package! With still hundreds of shorts left to address, we&#8217;d better get started!<\/p>\n<p>Dogs are some of the greatest animals on the planet! Hollywood seems to think so too. As all the biggest stars (at least of the 1940s) all seem to own one. What&#8217;s more, they look a lot like their owners too, making it easy to tell who is who. So what do these dogs do when their owners are out being caricatured in Warner Bros. cartoons? They decide to start a nightclub all their own! And everyone of the canine type is invited! Upon entering, patrons can drop their (fur) coats at the entrance. And one doesn&#8217;t need to worry about filling your belly: Dogwood himself is on hand making some tasty bone sandwiches, and cleanup is nothing to worry about. We&#8217;ve got Laurel and Hardy&#8217;s dogs on cleanup duty. (Our dishes wind up extra clean. Seeing as how Laurel&#8217;s pooch, keeps accidentally dropping what he just dried back into the sink.) A young dog tries to call home, but has to wait as there are quite a number ahead of him. Not to worry, there is plenty of entertainment to keep one occupied. Why not listen to Leopold Bowwosky conduct? His musicians are playing the Hungarian Dances. (Taking reading breaks when waiting for their part, and breaking violins when performing their part) But some aren&#8217;t taking things too seriously. Lou Costello&#8217;s dog can&#8217;t be bothered to stay with his instrument and will leave in the middle of a performance to get a drink. (And more amusing than that, acting like a jerk when people tell him to get back to work) He just might ruin the song too, as he&#8217;ll mistake any flies on his sheet music for actual notes. And our young friend is still waiting to call. But there&#8217;s only one ahead of him now! Some dog&#8217;s try to make connections. Bing Crosby&#8217;s dog is serenading the pet of Dorothy Lamour. But he can&#8217;t quite compete with Frank Sinatra&#8217;s dog. (Mostly because the latter&#8217;s singing is too irresistible for Bing&#8217;s pooch to try and top) With a fresh batch of music (and the occasional box of fleas) everyone is really getting into the dancing groove. Well, almost everyone. Our young friend is finally allowed to call home. Hope his voice is strong enough. Since dog&#8217;s can&#8217;t use telephones, he has to make do with a megaphone.<\/p>\n<p>Personal Rating: 2<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#8220;I&#8217;m a baaad bowwow.&#8221; Directed by Robert McKimson; Story by Warren Foster; Animation by Cal Dalton, Don Williams, and Richard Bickenbach; Backgrounds by Richard H.
