Trivia

At the drive-in theatre, ticket-taker, Burton was ordered to chase DC, away by the drive-in manager. Burton's chase of DC ended when he fell in a Volkswagen, that had the top roof open with two dummies, one dressed as a male and the other one was dressed as a female. See more »

Goofs

Revealing mistakes: After D.C. jumps out of the window from being paw printed, Zeke applies the paper to his forehead. For one, the print on his forehead is crooked, but when you see it on the paper its perfectly straight. Also there was a second paw print right beside copied one, which should have left something of a mark on the paper. See more »
