Dog Daze is a 1939 Our Gang short comedy film directed by George Sidney. It was the 181st Our Gang short to be released. [1]
The gang must raise 37 cents to pay off Butch. They earn a dollar for taking care of an injured dog, which turns out to be a police station mascot. But a goat devours the dollar bill. The kids hit upon a sure-fire moneymaking scheme; they will "rescue" every dog in town, thereby collecting a dollar from each grateful owner. Naturally, the pet owners are upset when their pooches mysteriously disappear, and before long the gang is in hot water with the cops.
Also in the mix is the trained penguin belonging to a frantic vaudevillian. Porky releases the penguin, hoping the dogs will chase it up the block and away from them. However, the police notice the chase and bring the animals back. Nonetheless, the police reward The Gang with a new soap box racer. As soon as the kids start downhill, the dogs take off after them, bowling over their owners. The last shot is of the penguin walking directly into the camera lens. [2]
The Little Rascals is a 30-minute Saturday morning animated series produced by Hanna-Barbera Productions and King World Productions. It first aired on ABC on September 25, 1982.

Our Gang is an American series of comedy short films chronicling a group of poor neighborhood children and their adventures. Created by film producer Hal Roach, also the producer of the Laurel and Hardy films, Our Gang shorts were produced from 1922 to 1944, spanning the silent film and early sound film periods of American cinema. Our Gang is noted for showing children behaving in a relatively natural way; Roach and original director Robert F. McGowan worked to film the unaffected, raw nuances apparent in regular children, rather than have them imitate adult acting styles. The series also broke new ground by portraying white and black children interacting as equals during the Jim Crow era of racial segregation in the United States.
