Hare Ribbin'

Robert Clampett. Hare Ribbin'. USA 1944

After all we've seen we're back to a chase. This time out our chaser is a Russian accented dog with a red bouffant. Lot of gags and some good back and forth, but here the most notable thing is the ending(s).

Yes, plural as the short ends differently depending on which version you're watching. The original one had the dog apparently shooting himself, while the director's cut had Bugs cutting out the middle man and shooting the dog directly.

Yeah, I can see why those got cut. A bit dark for 1944.
