Overview

A rough and tough bulldog named Spike sets out with his admirer, a small dog named Chester, to rough up a cat. They encounter Sylvester and chase him into a junkyard, where a black panther that escaped from a zoo just happens to be hiding out. Every time Spike goes into the junkyard to thrash Sylvester, he is clawed into pieces by the panther, which he, in a dark maze of crates, thinks is Sylvester. Chester has no problem pummelling Sylvester before Spike's eyes, which convinces Spike that Chester must be tougher than him.

Spike got handled so hard its... Okay actually I shouldn't make that joke, this is a kid's short. Uhhhhhhhh this is cute and funny with some solid gags. Not a lot to say beyond that.

After being omitted from the Looney Tunes Golden Collections, this short deservedly found its way onto the last disk of the last of the Platinum Collections. It's one of my favorites because of the interplay between Spike the Bulldog and Chester, his adoring sidekick. Actually, Chester is the benefit of the old switcheroo, a panther that has escaped from a zoo is hiding in the same alley as Sylvester and tough-dog Spike is unwittingly being roughed up by the panther instead of Sylvester. The way that Chester beats up Sylvester and twirls him up and over the fence while cans and garbage fly is pure Freleng, timed with music and sounds to perfection. The short, terse vocal delivery by Mel Blanc when performing as Spike is hilarious. Spike comes off as a tough mobster sort and the way he speaks is absolute gold.
