Plot

Pluto spots Dinah the dachshund and is smitten, but she ignores him. He uses a giant bone to steal a kiss, and hides behind a mirror, but still no luck.

Sinekatalog’s take

A smitten dog tries every trick to win a dachshund's attention, from stolen kisses to hiding behind a mirror. The gags are charming and the pace quick. A cute classic cartoon for fans of mid-century animation.Sinekatalog’s own editorial review – not a user or critic quote.
