Yilkes, this is another one of these dark-humored "cartoons," although I admit I like my fair share of them. Some are a little mean-spirited or edgy but this is okay. It seems to me, though, that somewhere I have seen this "guard dog" in another animated short which is flat-out hilarious. I can't think was it is called, however. I know the dog looks very familiar.
In this "Guard Dog," the short, fat and protective-of-his- master canine gets his wish: a walk in the park by his owner. However, this park is the "Park From Hell," as every innocent creature the dog spots suddenly turns into a killer. Whether it's a little girl and her jump rope, or a squirrel, a bird, grasshopper, butterfly, or even a flower, "nature" in this particular park devours the dog's owner. Some of it is really sadistic, like a squirrel pouring gasoline down the throat of the dog owner! He was definitely the most sadistic creature in the park.
What's really odd is that the owner gets demolished and assumed killed every time, but seconds later he's back out walking his dog with another creature ready and waiting for him. He finally does expire, and how that happens is ironic. I'll leave that up to you to discover.
Yeah, this is a little shocking at time, so beware.....this is no cartoon for little kids. If you are familiar with Bill Plympton and his strange animated efforts, you'll know to expect anything crazy! You will be entertained.
