The segments centered around the misadventures of a dachshund father-and-son team. Doggie Daddy (voiced by Doug Young) tried to do the best he could at raising his rambunctious son Augie (voiced by Daws Butler). Augie, who loved his father, would often refer to him as “dear old Dad.” Their mutual iration included Daddy gently chiding, “Augie, my son, my son”, when he would disappoint his father; and when his son would say or do something that inspired pride, Daddy would turn to the audience and say with a grin, “Dat’s my boy who said dat!” 542552
The segments and characters were similar to the Spike and Tyke cartoons William Hanna and Joseph Barbera produced during their theatrical animation careers at MGM in the 1940s and 1950s.
