Society Dogs

A Screamingly Funny Two-Reel Comedy with "Brownie" the Wonder Dog

1921 · 17 min · ★ 9.0 · Comedy

The picture opens with Brownie in a tuxedo, eating an elaborate meal and finishing with the proper use of his finger bowl. It is all a dream, however, as he is but the assistant to an itinerant glazier who ties a stone to Brownie's tail and has him break show windows for his master to repair. The glazier combines business with a clothes cleaner and Brownie with his mud-smeared tail, rubs up against people and brings in plenty of business.
