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]

Plot

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 of the other escaped dogs are chasing after the bone. Pluto's former cage-mate uses an army of fleas to get it back and then gives it back to Pluto. Pluto then decides to share the bone after all and they enjoy it together as the cartoon fades out.
