Leghorn Swoggled is a 1951 Merrie Melodies short directed by Robert McKimson.
Title[]
The name is a play on "leghorn" and "hornswoggled".
Plot[]
Little Henery the Chicken Hawk wants to trap Foghorn Leghorn for his dinner, and Barnyard Dawg then says he will help Henery to catch Foghorn on one condition - that Henery find him a bone. Henery's efforts to find the dog a bone involve obtaining cheese for a mouse and a fish for a cat, with Foghorn's help! Once the dog is given his bone, he uses it to knock Foghorn out, so that Foghorn can be carried away by Henery on a toy train.

Censorship[]
Two gags centered on choking were cut when this cartoon aired on ABC's The Bugs Bunny & Tweety Show:[1]
- When Henery Hawk catches Foghorn by the neck with his lasso, Foghorn's line, "I've lost my voice. I can't sing. It's like being choked on a rope" was cut down on "I've lost my voice".
- The scene of Foghorn Leghorn spanking Barnyard Dawg and making him chase him up a ladder and onto a pull-up bar, where Barnyard Dawg swings from his rope and gets his underside repeatedly painted was cut off after Foghorn Leghorn spanks him and runs.
Goofs[]
- After Barnyard Dawg is punched in the face with a boxing glove camera, the screen briefly freeze-frames for one second before it resumes playing as normal.
