The Pooch (1932)

Budd Fine: Budd - Dog Catcher

Quotes 

• Budd - Dog Catcher : [Sadistically]  Your dog is dead.

  [Stymie reacts with shock and anguish] 

  Co-Worker at Dog Pound : It's OK, Sonny. Your dog isn't dead.

  Budd - Dog Catcher : What do you mean?

  Co-Worker at Dog Pound : I've been trying to tell you, there ain't no gas in those cylinders.

  [So saying, the co-worker opens the door to the chamber. Petey is in there, still alive. He comes out and chases the cruel dog-catcher away] 

• Stymie : [on the verge of crying]  Please don't take my dog, Mister.

  Budd - Dog Catcher : Well, where's his license?

  Stymie : He ain't got no license, he's just got fleas.

  Budd - Dog Catcher : So YOU'RE the one who let those dogs loose, huh?

  Stymie : Yes, sir, but I'm sorry.

  Budd - Dog Catcher : Just for that, if you don't have $5 at the dog pound in a half an hour, I'm gonna KILL that pooch.
