What happens

Odor of the Day is a 1948 Warner Bros. Looney Tunes cartoon directed by Arthur Davis. The short was released on October 2, 1948, and stars Pepé Le Pew. It is the only short in which he does not appear as a lover; it is also the only short in which he does not speak, save for one line at the end. This is also the second and last cartoon to feature Davis' character, Wellington the Dog, who previously appeared in Doggone Cats the year prior. The title is a play on the phrase "order of the day".
