Northwest Hounded Police is a theatrical cartoon released by MGM in 1946. It was directed by Tex Avery and is remarkably similar to an earlier cartoon featuring the same characters, Dumb-Hounded. The film features two of Avery's reoccurring characters, Droopy and the unnamed wolf. The plot of the cartoon focuses on a chase between an escaped convict, the wolf, and Droopy. The scenes have a very repetitive story; the wolf continually runs away and hides only to have been beaten to his hideout by a lackadaisical Droopy.
