First appearance of the Barnyard Dog (whose unspoken real name, according to the model sheets, is George P. Dog).
Foghorn Leghorn was closely based on Sen. Claghorn, a blustery, windbag Southern politician on radio's "The Fred Allen Show"--played by Allen's announcer Kenny Delmar--whose trademark lines included, "Somebody, Ah say, somebody knocked," "That's a joke, son," and "Pay attention, boy!".
