The first appearance of Terrytoon's forgotten Terry Bears characters.

A favorite plot at the studio: a character running around the house being terrorized mostly by his own imagination. A sure-fire setup for freak-out animation by Jim Tyer, Carlo Vinci, Conrad "Connie" Rasinski (the director, after whose dog "Pago" was named) and Paul Sommer.

The Terry Bears have trouble hibernating when the radiator breaks. The trouble increases when Papa Bear decides not to send for a pluber and to fix the radiator himself. The Cubs try to help but they break the water valve and flood the house. Papa nearly freezes in his attempts but the Cubs save him and fix the pipes. (imdb)

Papa Bear is off for a relaxing day of fishing at the lake, but he is followed by his little cubs, who proceed to make his day miserable. They catch more fish than he does and use unconventional ways to do it, and they are also responsible for him getting dunked in the water several times. (imdb)

Pompus Papa Bear takes his Terry Bears cubs on a camping trip and, since he claims to be an expert camper, he sets out to give the cubs the benefits of his camping skills. He immediately proceeds to spend his time going from the firing pan to the fire, while the cubs prove that they are the expert campers. (imdb)

The Terry-Bears hear howling and waken their father, who is also frightened. A big dog comes in, and the cubs want to keep it but Papa Bear kicks it outside. The kids get the dog back inside and Papa decides to get rid of it and takes it away in his car. A traffic-cop is knocked down and gives chase. Later, the Terry-Bears are happy when the dog returns on his own, wearing a policeman's cap, while Papa Bear is in court giving an explanation to a judge. (imdb)

Papa Bear wants to spend his paycheck on something foolish, but the Cubs think he should purchase some interest-paying defense bonds.

After watching a television commercial, Papa Bear decides to take up gardening but has more than his share of problems. The little bears give him a bag of 'speedy-grow' in stead of weed-killer, and the weeds thrive and take over his garden. Worms are feasting on his tomato crop, and the anti-worm spray he uses engulfs him rather than the vines. (imdb)

Papa Bear gets extremely tired of his oversized dog Pago causing problems- so much that he is ready to execute him. Of course, he becomes soft-hearted and lets the dog go, only to be treated to another more frustrating experiences as a result of the antics of Pago and his three cubs.

Papa Bear, his cubs and the Hound Dog go duck hunting and, as usual, the experts (Papa and the dog) have nothing but misadventures, while the amateur hunters bag all the ducks. When Papa returns home, empty-handed, angry and frustrated, he throws the ammunition into the fireplace, followed by a barrage of bullets firing upward through the chimney and bringing down a flock of ducks that were flying overhead.

The Terry Bears, to Papa Bear's distress, try to train their hound Pago to be a rabbit dog. When Papa takes Pago hunting, the rabbits prove to be smarter than both him and the dog.
