Cut Scenes
- Unshown in the 1980s - probably due to to the black-dialect Rochester voice, although no actual black character is shown. Censored today - a short moment in which a painted Pluto appears to be in blackface is removed.

From Ryan : Mickey is building a brand new doghouse for Pluto. In another shot, we see the old one all dilapidated (note that there is a sign that says 1926 on it before Mickey and Pluto were even created). I liked the genie's voice (sure it ain't Robin Williams, but who the H-E- double hockey sticks cares). I enjoyed the scene where Mickey was listening to the radio and ordered the genie to give Pluto a bath. As he changed the station, there was a cooking show and the announcer said to add two eggs. Well you can guess what the genie did. It isn't until the end of the short that you find out that it was all a dream, which was kind of disappointing to me when I first saw this cartoon.
From Dino Cencia : I like the image of Pluto with curly hair.
From Baruch Weiss : Mickey builds a doghouse for Pluto. Soon they discover a magic lamp that grants Mickey's wish and builds a dream dog house for Pluto, but it all turned out to be a dream. A fun cartoon with nice music.
From j.p.hope : I like this Mickey Mouse short because of the part where Pluto digs up a magic lamp, Mickey calls it a "DIRTY OLD TEAPOT". the lamp shouts "fool! ain't no dang old teapot!" Mickey asks "who said that?" the lamp answers "I did." Mickey is then startled and he and Pluto think the lamp is a ghost.
