Alice and the Dog Catcher

Alice and the Dog Catcher is the sixth film in the Alice Comedies series.

Summary
Alice and the boys are having a meeting of the Klix Klax Klub when a tearful Tubby arrives and tells them that a dog catcher is driving through town collecting all the stray dogs. Alice, the leader of the club, tells a story. In Cartoonland, a dogcatcher is trapping a group of puppies. The last puppy, however, is wise to the dog catcher and evades him by ducking in and out of a rabbit hole. Eventually, he does trap the last puppy and takes them all to the pound. Alice arrives at the tearful home of the puppies, where the mom and dad convey to Alice what happened to their babies. When Alice goes to the pound, made to look like a prison, she is turned away by the guard. Luckily, a crate filled with bombs is conveniently located nearby. Alice throws one of the bombs into the pound and blows it up, making it rain puppies. Soon, all the puppies run home for a happy family reunion.

After hearing Alice's story the gang decide to set the dogs free. While the dog catchers are distracted the dogs are freed. Seeing this, the dog catchers chase after the children, leaving their vehicle unattended. Alice and Tubby decide to steal their car and take it for a joyride, which leads to a frantic chase. Alice and Tubby bail out of the car which keeps driving on its own with the dog catchers on foot still in pursuit. They catch up with their vehicle, but not in time to keep it from going down the side of a hill and crashing. Alice and the kids look down at the dog catchers and their wrecked vehicle, laughing.
