Comments

From Ryan : I enjoy this short, but it isn't one of my favorites. In this short, Pluto has to deal with a turtle who keeps coming into his house. Then, Butch the bulldog invades it and the turtle bites butch, making him run off in agony. I do get a good chuckle at the end where the turtle has his own bed right under Pluto's. The turtle has some bones to munch on as well.

From Baruch Weiss : I too enjoyed this short, but it's not one of my favorites either. I've seen this plot before in the 1945 classic "Canine Patrol".
