Synopsis

Despite what's printed on the credits, Tex Avery had nothing to do with this cartoon - it's a Cinemascope remake of 'Wags to Riches' (1949), put together by others from his original artwork and production cels. Apart from the new Cinemascope backgrounds, it's identical to the earlier film.

Spike the bulldog's millionaire owner leaves his fortune to Droopy, but only if Droopy can avoid harm. Spike tries everything to get rid of Droopy, leading to a series of classic cartoon gags. It's a chase full of slapstick humor that kids will enjoy.
