# | Film | Director(s) | Producer(s) | Original release date | Notes |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
1 | Dumb-Hounded | Tex Avery | Fred Quimby | March 20, 1943 | Droopy's first appearance, here named Happy Hound. He would not take on his more familiar name until the next cartoon in the series, The Shooting of Dan McGoo. |
2 | The Shooting of Dan McGoo | Tex Avery | Fred Quimby | March 3, 1945 | With the popularity of Happy Hound in Dumb Hounded, the character returns, but with a new name: Droopy Dog. This name stuck. |
3 | Wild and Woolfy | Tex Avery | Fred Quimby | November 3, 1945 | |
4 | Northwest Hounded Police | Tex Avery | Fred Quimby | August 13, 1946 | Director Tex Avery parodies the processes of cartooning and cinema: in one sequence, the fleeing wolf runs so fast that he has to hold onto the sprocket holes of the film frame just to keep himself in the picture. |
5 | SeƱor Droopy | Tex Avery | Fred Quimby | April 9, 1949 | The American-born Lina Romay who appears in live action in this cartoon should not be confused with an actress with the same name who appeared in several porn and horror films in the 1970s and 1980s. |
6 | Wags to Riches | Tex Avery | Fred Quimby | August 13, 1949 | Remade as Millionaire Droopy (1951). Droopy and Spike's master dies and his will is read. The will states that his fortune goes to his favorite dog. Spike's jaw drops to the floor when he hears that the favorite dog is Droopy. In the event of Droopy's death, the estate will revert to Spike. Spike's subsequent attempts to get rid of Droopy then go hilariously wrong. This cartoon includes the TIM.....ber tree gag. |
7 | Out-Foxed | Tex Avery | Fred Quimby | October 12, 1949 | |
8 | The Chump Champ | Tex Avery | Fred Quimby | November 4, 1950 | |
