Just Dogs is a 1932 animated film part of the Silly Symphony series, directed by Burt Gillett.[1] It marked the first solo appearance of Pluto.[2]
The film opens with a group of dogs in the dog pound, howling Vernon Dalhart's "The Prisoner's Song".[2]
Pluto's cage-mate at the dog pound breaks out and lets all the other dogs out as well. In the park, the dog who helped Pluto earlier keeps following him too closely for Pluto's tastes, until he digs up a huge bone and gives it to Pluto (who doesn't particularly want to share). Soon all the other escaped dogs are chasing after the bone, so Pluto uses fleas and then shares it with the dog who helped him.
The short was released on December 4, 2001, on Walt Disney Treasures: Silly Symphonies - The Historic Musical Animated Classics.[3] [1]
