The story

thumb|thumbtime=20|So Quiet on the Canine Front (1931) As a loud orchestral rendition of "Over There" fills the soundtrack, the MGM lion is seen emitting three silent roars, followed by a title card listing the film's credits. Dog school prologue Scene 1: A class composed of 20 small and medium-sized dogs of various breeds, wearing jackets, shirts and stiff-necked collars, is instructed by a similarly dressed dog "professor" sporting round eyeglasses, with a 1910s bowtie cravat around the neck of his stiff shirt. The subject is anatomy, replete with a dog chart, focusing on "the south end of the backbone — for thereby hangs a tail".
