*** This comment may contain spoilers ***
The interesting thing about the Harvey cartoons is that while they attempt to be one plot (Baby Huey disrupts baby ducks who then have to revere him when he saves them from the fox), eventually they seem to develop a strange second string of plot (Baby Huey is oblivious to the fox in one assortment of cartoons, but in another set, he realizes it is the fox and challenges and defeats him).
Casper scares everybody in his cartoons, save for babies or unhappy animals, but in several, when the baby cries because Casper has left, the frightened mother will have to have a change of heart and ask Casper to come back.
In this one, Casper scares everybody except for Zero the worthless watchdog.
Casper makes several attempts to see if Zero is another type of dog, hunting, guard dog or whatever, and finally they realize Zero is a watchdog (especially when Casper scares the crook away).
Lackluster happy ending results.
