Overview


That's My Pup! is the 76th MGM Tom and Jerry cartoon.

Plot[]

Spike is teaching Tyke the three important rules of being a dog: being man's best friend, burying bones and how to chase cats, which Spike says is his specialty. Observing Tom chasing Jerry and waiting by Jerry's mouse hole, Spike has the perfect cat to chase in, Tom. He sneaks up behind Tom and barks ferociously. Tom is quite literally frightened out of his skin and climbs a tree to get away from Spike, shredding off most of its bark in the process. Spike accosts Tom and warns him in more friendly than usual way that when Tyke starts barking, Tom starts climbing in order to give the little pup some self-esteem. However, the screen moves up to Jerry who is eavesdropping on the conversation. But when Tyke barks and covers his eyes, Spike throws him up the tree and Tom smashes through several branches before halting halfway up. Now, both Jerry and Tyke take it in turns to bark at Tom.

Tom gets Jerry who whistles, Tyke appears and barks at Tom. No results; Jerry bites Tom's thumb causing him to scream. Tom is about to kick Tyke until Spike appears, so Tom puts Tyke down and climbs up the tree with his toes. After Tyke leaves, Jerry barks at Tom who speeds up. He comes at the tree, with long necked and he chases Jerry once again. Suddenly, Tyke finds Tom, who hides in the bushes, again and bites his tail pulling him out. Tom traps Tyke in the bucket and escapes.

Tom gets a cloth that looks like his tail and ties it into a flagpole. When Tyke bites it, he is sent into the flagpole, while pulling him up, his tongue is out and runs away. Tyke yelps for help until Spike arrives. Spike calls on Tyke to check if he is all right. When Tyke barks for help, he falls down on top of Spike, who comes to the conclusion that Tom is responsible for Tyke as he becomes angry after his son told him he did it. Spike paints the flagpole with grease and barks at Tom who begins climbing up the flagpole. However, the amount of grease causes him to be slowed down and struggled climbing up too. Spike then allows Tyke to bark in his place while Tom continues trying to climb up the greasy pole. By nighttime, Tyke was still barking away while Tom still climbs in fear with no avail. At his doghouse, Spike says, "That's my boy doing' that" and goes to sleep with Jerry joining him.
