    Storyline

    Edit
    • Trivia
      Mr. Burns says in the episode that the puppy that stands up only on its hind legs reminds him of Rory Calhoun. George Meyer came up with the joke, but Matt Groening argued against it because he did not think the audience would know who Calhoun was. The writers decided to keep it in anyway, because it was later expanded into a key part of the episode's ending. Several years later, Groening stated that he was proven correct after pointing to discussions on the Internet about the episode asking who Calhoun was.
    • Goofs
      When Bart and Lisa go down the laundry chute, Lisa removes Bart's shoes and socks and throws his socks down the chute to get the puppies to go down and escape Mr. Burns. However, when Mr. Burns points his gun at Bart and Lisa after deciding he can't kill the puppies in the next scene, Bart's shoes are back on.
    • Quotes

      Lisa: What's Santa's Little Helper doing to that dog?

      Marge Simpson: Uh-oh.

      Bart: It looks like he's trying to jump over her, but he can't quite make it. Come on, boy! You can do it!

    When someone becomes an inconvenience, we just get rid of them?
    Santa's Little Helper mates with another greyhound and they have puppies.

    This is a strong episode with some great visual humour.

    The premise is reasonably good with another dog behaviour situation for the family to deal with before it turns into an amusing spoof of 101 Dalmatians.

    Some of the sight gags are great, especially what happens slightly off camera during the racetrack sequence, Homer having his potato chips stolen and the brilliant final shadow joke.

    All characters are used well by the writers and animators, particularly the Simpson family, all those canines and Montgomery Burns.
