Dog (The Three Bears)

The Hunter's Dog is the secondary antagonist of the 1939 Terry Toons cartoon short, The Three Bears, being a dimwitted dog who helps his owner poach animals for their furs.

History
After Goldilocks arrives at the three bears' house, the Papa Bear wants her out. However, she is allowed to stay due to Baby Bear and Mama Bear's convincing, but Papa is still not happy about it.

The hunter and his dog arrive nearby, with the dog sniffing the trail of the bears. The dog picks up their scent, and lets his master know how many they are and how big they are. However, after the dog becomes confused and loses the scent (due to the bears having run all over the place), the hunter gets on all fours and sniff them out himself before angrily switching back with the dog.

The hunter and the dog reach the three bears' house and break their way in. The bears hide as Goldilocks confronts the hunter, distracting him by feeding him some spaghetti for lunch, then throwing his gin in the fire. The dog sniffs out the bears and calls his master to them. However, Papa and Goldilocks beat the hunter up. They throw him into a piano, then all take turns hitting him with instruments and their fists. They toss him into a drum and roll him away, and the dog grabs his shirt and pulls the unconscious hunter away.

The bears celebrate, with Goldilocks having proved her worth.

Internet Popularity
The cartoon became a meme in late 2017 and early 2018, mainly for Papa Bear's thick Italian accent and his comedic line "Somebody touch-a my spaghett!". As such, the dog was also recognized as another humorous addition to the already funny cartoon.

Personality
The dog is dimwitted, but not as much as the hunter. It is loyal to its master and helps him no matter what, and seems always happy to help out, even when his owner is mad at him. It is also cowardly, and runs away from danger when it comes around. This cowardice, however, helps it from suffering the same fate as is master.
