What's the name of this cartoon?


I think it was an old Looney Tunes cartoon where this big dog was ordering other animals around to bring him meat but they always forgot the gravy, and he ate so much he couldn't move and they put a funnel in his mouth and poured a whole jug of gravy down it. Does anybody know what the name of this cartoon is?

It's called Chow Hound.

And the zookeeper had a strange voice that sounded like Howard MacNear (y'know, "Floyd Lawson the barber" from "The Andy Griffith" show later, imitating Sterling Holloway!)
