Dog Gone People is a 1960 Warner Bros. Merrie Melodies cartoon animated short directed by Robert McKimson.
[4] Elmer is voiced by Hal Smith, as Arthur Q. Bryan had died the previous year.
The main plot revolves around Elmer doing a favor to his boss by watching his dog, Rupert, during an out-of-town trip ... the catch being that Rupert behaves as though he is a human and expects to be treated accordingly, and that Elmer must do everything he can to not offend his guest or risk losing out on more than just a work promotion.
Elmer Fudd is tasked with caring for his boss's dog, Rupert, under the promise of a potential promotion.
From misunderstanding Rupert's preferences to inadvertently causing chaos, Elmer finds himself in a series of humorous predicaments.
