The little pointy-nosed man and his dog are out camping one night, not knowing that the Pink Panther is on a tree branch just above them. He can't sleep because of the man's snoring, so he cuts loose the man's hammock with a knife, sending him flying straight to the river. When the dog hears the man's scream for help, he grips the knife in his mouth, and seeing this, the man blames the dog for what's happened. Later, the panther attaches the little man's hammock above the campfire, and sends the tent with the man in it floating down the river towards a waterfall. Every time the dog gets the blame, making the man hate his pet.

Simple and well acted, it has tension enough to knot the stomach.

It is encouraging that the film ends so strongly.Otherwise, it wouldn't have been a particularly memorable film

The Pink Panther gets a sleepless night when the pointy-nosed man and his dog are out camping out one evening, the man's snores keeping the panther up. So, the panther hilariously unleashes a host of counters including cutting loose the man's hammock with a knife, sending him flying into the river. He later also makes the man's hammock catch on fire. The man's poor dog, of course, is blamed for all this.Plenty of laughs here. The dog is quite adorable and the man, of course, is funny and entertaining when mad and when he gets the bad end of the rap when the panther plays tricks on him. One of the better ones with the Pink Panther.Grade A

The is an excellent Pink Panther cartoon, definitely in the top echelon. Even though it was frustrating at times, as this poor innocent dog kept getting blamed for things the Pink Panther did, justice prevailed in the end.Along the route, it's simply a story of the Panther exacting revenge for the Little White Guy interrupting his sleep out in the park. The PP is way up in the branches trying to sleep with the man and his dog set up camp below. Soon, the man is in his hammock snoring away. The snoring interrupts the Panther's sleep and the cartoon from that point is a series of events in which he gets back at the guy for his snoring.How the dog gets involved is the funny part of each skit in this cartoon. He's the star of the animated short. You'll just love this dog!

Pink Panther is out in the woods trying to sleep when the snoring of a camper (sleeping just below him by a tree) keeps him awake. Coupled with the fact that the camper's pooch is trying to protect the camper from Panther's ire towards his master makes for hilarious comedy.I've been going through the Complete Pink Panther DVD collection and this episode is definitely one of my favorites. This is classic Pink Panther. I love when the Panther is more of a supporting cast member rather than the lead. The leads are the camper and his dog and they are hilarious without revealing too much. I found myself laughing aloud in this one.

The Pink Panther is sleeping in the treetops in a secluded part of the forest when a noisy man and his dog set up their camp below him for the night. The camper is happy to hog all the comfort for himself and leave his dog out in the cold but his snoring is keeping Pinky awake.Obviously less than pleased at this intrusion, Pinky takes it upon himself to play tricks on the camper as he sleeps, leaving the dog to rescue him. Each time the camper awakens he thinks it's the dog that has sabotaged his sleep and scolds him for it. Promptly going back to sleep and snoring loudly.Not a particularly imaginative set-up but has a good reasonable amount of laughs to keep it going.
