Comments

From Calvin Daprice : I saw this short for the first time on the "Ink and Paint Club" with the editing. One time, however, I was flipping through channels and I came across a little boy popping out of a jack-in-the-box on the Disney Channel. This was the "Mickey Mouse Club" and the announcement of an upcoming cartoon. I watched it and I saw the scene with the sleeping dog catcher holding a gun in his hands. So if you want to see the Disney shorts without all that pesky editing, the "Mickey Mouse Club" is the best place.

From Ryan : This really isn't one of my favorite shorts, but I still enjoy watching it. Like Calvin Daprice, I saw this short on the "Mickey Mouse Club." When the pound scene came on, I did see the sleeping dogcatcher with the gun on his lap.

From Baruch Weiss : There's another way to see all your favorite classic Disney cartoons without that pesky editing. It's called Video and DVD. Anyway this was a nice cartoon, but nothing new; the plot seemed similar to earlier cartoons!

I have seen "Canine Casanova" and would like to
