Aye. And they're very expensive.

You will not be permitted

to play with it.

But they're mighty sweet.

And very, very soft.

Just a cute little bundle.

Of trouble.

Yeah. They scratch,

pinch, pull ears...

But shucks.

Any dog can take that.

It's what they do to your happy home.

Move it over, will you, friend?

Homewreckers, that's what they are.

Look here.

Who are you to barge in?

The voice of experience, buster.

Just wait till junior gets here.

You get the urge for

a nice comfortable scratch,

and, "Put that dog out!

He'll get fleas all over the baby."

You start barking

at some strange mutt.

"Stop that racket.

You'll wake the baby."

And then!

Then they hit you in the room

and board department.

Remember those nice,

juicy cuts of beef?

Forget them.

Leftover baby food.

And that nice,

warm bed by the fire?

A leaky doghouse.

- Oh, dear.

- Do not listen, lassie.

No human is that cruel.

Of course not, Miss Lady.

Why, everybody knows

a dog's best friend is his human.

Come on now, fellas.

You haven't fallen for

that old line, now have you?

Aye. And we've no need for mongrels

and their radical ideas.

Off with you, now.

Off with you!

- OK, Sandy.

- The name's Jock.

- OK, Jock.

- Heather Lad of Glencairn to you!

OK, OK, OK.

But remember this, Pigeon.

A human heart has only so much

room for love and affection.

When a baby moves in,

the dog moves out.

Let's see. That'll be about...

Oh, well.

Darling?

There isn't any way we can tell

what it's going to be, is there?

I'm afraid not.

Nobody ever knows for certain.

AII we can do is hope.

Darling, are you sure

you want watermelon?

And some chop suey too.

Chop su...

AII right, darling.

That's the cutest thing I ever saw.

- Those booties!

- That bonnet.

- Isn't it just too adorable?

- Don't you love showers?

I've never seen you

look more beautiful.

Isn't she radiant?

That's what I told Bill yesterday.

"Darling looks positively radiant.

Why, in all my days," I said,

"I've never seen anyone as radiant."

Jim, you look terrible.

Absolutely horrible.

I never saw you look worse.

Cheer up, Jim. Old Doc Jones

has never lost a father yet.

Yes, Aunt Sarah, it's a boy.

A boy. And...

What's that?

Eyes?

What colour are they?

Well, oh, gosh.

I forgot to look.

A boy.

It's a boy, it's a... Doctor!

Doctor, it's a boy!

Yes, yes, I know.

A boy.

Oh, boy, oh, boy!

It's a boy, it's a boy,

it's a boy!

Hello? Hello, Jim?

Are you there, Jim?

Central, we've been cut off..

Hello? Hello?

Hello!

What is a baby?

I just can't understand

It must be something wonderful

It must be something grand

Cos everybody's smiling

In a kind and wistful way

And they haven't even noticed

That I'm around today

What is a baby, anyway?

What is a baby?

I must find out today

What makes Jim Dear and Darling

Act this way?

Oh, my little star sweeper

I'll sweep the stardust

For you

Little soft fluffy sleeper

Here comes a pink cloud

For you

Little wandering angel

Fold up your wings

Close your eyes

And may love be your keeper

There, now.

Little star sweeper.

Dream on.

Well, that should do it.

We've got enough here

to take us halfway to China.

Darling. Darling!

We haven't much time.

Jim, I just can't leave him.

He's still so small and helpless.

He'll be all right.

Now come on. If he wakes up

we'll never get away.

Jim, I feel so guilty

deserting him like this.

Nonsense.

Hey.

What's the matter with Lady?

She thinks we're running out on him.

Don't worry, old girl.

We'll be back in a few days.

And Aunt Sarah will be here.

With you here to help her...

There's the old girl now.

Coming, Aunt Sarah.

Coming!

Sorry I'm late, dears.

Hope I haven't kept you waiting.

- Let me take your things.

- No.

No fussing.

I know my way around.

On your way.

Mustn't miss your train.

Have a good time,

and don't worry about a thing.

Goodbye, dears. Goodbye.

Goodbye.

Now to see that big nephew of mine.

You adorable little...

Good gracious!

What are you doing here?

Go on, now. Shoo, shoo.

Scat. Get out of here.

There, there.

Aunt Sarah won't let

that dog frighten you anymore.

No, no, no.

Rock-a-bye, baby on the treetop

When the wind blows

We are Siamese if you please

We are Siamese if you don't please

Now we looking over

our new domicile

If we like we stay

for maybe quite a while

Do you seeing that thing

swimming round and round?

Yes.

Maybe we could reaching in

and make it drown.

If we sneaking up upon it carefully...

There will be a head for you

A tail for me

Do you hear what I hear?

A baby cry.

Where we finding baby

there are milk nearby

If we look in baby buggy

there could be

Plenty milk for you

and also some for me

What's going on down there?

Merciful heavens!

My darlings.

My precious pets.

That wicked animal.

Attacking my poor,

innocent little angels.

Good afternoon, ma'am.

What can I do for you?

I want a muzzle.

A good, strong muzzle.

Oh, yes, ma'am.

Now here's our latest.

Combination leash and muzzle.

Now, we'll just slip it on like this,

and... No! No, no, no.

Nice doggy.

No, don't wiggle.

Steady, now.

Now... Now, now.

Careful, you little...

Watch out.

- Careful, doggy.

- Come back!

Get over here, I say.

Come back here.

Hey, Pige, what are you doing

on this side of the tracks?

I thought you...

Wh...?

You poor kid.

We've got to get this off.

I think I know the very place.

Come on.

Well, here we are.

- The zoo?

- Sure.

No, no. This way.

Follow me.

- Oh.

- What's the matter, Pige?

- We can't go in.

- Why not?

- Well, the sign says...

- Yeah, well, that's...

- That's the angle.

- Angle?

Look. We'll wait for the right...

Here we are now.

Just lay low.

- Hey, you!

- I beg your pardon.

- Were you addressing...?

- What's the matter? Can't you read?

Why, yes,

in several languages.

Oh, a wise guy?

AII right, now, what's

this creature doing here?

- He's not my dog.

- He's not?

Go away. Get down.

Go on.

Why, certainly not, officer.

I suppose you'll be tellin' me next

it was the dog that was whistling?

I'm certain I don't know.

Oh! So I'm a liar now, am I?

Well, you listen to me.

Resisting an officer of the law.

You're gonna pay.

Pull a knife on me, will you?

Trying to assassinate me, you are.

Carrying concealed weapons.

Come on, Pige.

The place is ours.

We better go through

this place from A to Z.

Apes.

No, no.

No use even asking them.

They wouldn't understand.

They wouldn't?

Too closely related to humans.

Alligators.

Now there's an idea.

Say, AI, do you suppose you could

nip this contraption off for us?

Glad to oblige.

Whoa. Whoa!

If anybody ever needed

a muzzle, it's him.

Timber!

Pigeon, look out!

Now what harebrained idiot would...

Hey, look. A beaver.

There's the answer to our problem.

Let me see here.

Six-foot-six

and seven-sixteenth inches.

Pardon me, friend.

- I wonder if you'd do us a little...

- Busy, sonny. Busy.

Can't stop to gossip now.

Ward Greene

Ward Greene (1892–1956) was an American writer, editor, journalist, playwright, and general manager of the comic syndicate King Features Syndicate. He is known for overseeing the works of Alex Raymond and other writers and artists at King Features Syndicate. He also wrote books such as Death in the Deep South, 1936 (adapted as the film They Won't Forget, in 1937) that, according to reviewer William Rose Benet, "reveals with startling clarity how the law works and how the press works after a particularly horrible and brutal murder." His "Happy Dan, the Cynical Dog" (1945) was the basis for the Disney film Lady and the Tramp released in 1955. Greene also wrote under the pseudonyms Frank Dudley and Jean Greene. more…
