Rock-a-Bye Bear
Directed by Tex Avery
Produced by MGM Cartoon Studio, Quimby-Hanna/Barbera
A lighthearted cartoon comedy built on slapstick chaos and job-competition rivalry, where a dog must keep a hibernating bear undisturbed while fending off a scheming rival.
Spike gets a job running the house for a hibernating bear. Only problem is that same bear is VERY noise-sensitive, and Spike's got a rival that wants his job.
