Little Orphan Airedale is a Warner Bros. Looney Tunes cartoon directed by Charles M. Jones and released on October 4, 1947. It was later reissued as a Blue Ribbon Merrie Melodies short.
The cartoon's story is about a dog that has just escaped from the dog pound and accidentally meets an old friend of his in a car he used as a hiding place. This friend tells him about the troubles he has had finding a new master (Porky Pig), and keeping him after that. In the end of the film, Porky throws both dogs out of his car and tells them he doesn't want a dog. When the first dog sees how his friend begs Porky to keep him as a pet, he decides to go back to the pound (even though he has a hard time getting back in).
