From the old Quick Draw McGraw cartoons?

Quick Draw would give Teabiscuit a dog cookie and he'd go and find something for him and afterwards if Quick Draw didn't give him a cookie he'd storm off with whatever he found for Quick Draw?

My mom says she doesn't remember Teabiscuit. She says she only remembers Quick Draw and Babalouie. :D
Teabiscuit was even funnier than Quick Draw was.

Does anyone happen to have a picture of Quick Draw's 2nd most faithful sidekick?

Teabiscuit was Porky Pig's horse in a 1939 episode, by creator Bob Clampett, "Porky and Teabiscuit'. By the way, that debuted the parchment "Warner bros." logo that was use dover the WB shield and use din 1939 (the early proto-Bugs "Hare-Um Scare-Um" codirected by namesake Ben Hardaway and Cal Dalton was anothe rto use that scrool logo.,)

Snuffles was Quick Draw's pooch.

Furthermore, "Teabiscuit", was a play on the famous racehorse "Seabiscuit".

However, yes, Quick Draw's dog was certainly not called "Teabiscuit". Also, if memory serves, Muttley acted that way sometimes.

That's the correct name of the dog in the Quick Draw cartoons. I even remember he guest starred in a Johnny Bravo episode. There, they complained he slowed down the pace of the show whenever he went into his biscuit snacking sequence in comparison to the much faster pace of the majority of JB shorts.

Don't remember such a BRAVO episode- just the one in which The Meddling Kids and Speed Buggy guested. It's hard to imagine anyone other than the late Daws Butler voicing Snuffles' various gutteral reactions to his beloved biscuits. But it's nice than the early CN originals remembered their H-B roots; DEXTER, PPG and BILLY & MANDY had occasional guest spots or cameos by the classic characters.

The "biskit-lovin' hound dawg" also appeared in a Snagglepuss cartoon, and over two decades later, an episode of YOGI'S TREASURE HUNT. In keeping with the durable partnership between H-B and Kelloggs, he was a mascot- along with Hokey Wolf(!)- for Canadian packages of Kellogg's Sugar Smacks and Apple Jacks. http://theimaginaryworld.com/cbarch.html.

The gag of an animal being bribed when given a certain item- and reacting ecstacially when given said item- was retained by H-B. In their titular series, Muttley would only save Dick Dastardly if offered a medal. In the Krazy Klaws segment of 1981's KWIKKY KOALA SHOW, Bristletooth's trigger was beef jerky. Throughout SCOOBY-DOO history, Scooby Snacks were required to get him to do anything brave or heroic. In A PUP NAMED, the Snack would evoke a Snuffles-like reaction.
