Augie Doggie and Doggie Daddy are Hanna-Barbera cartoon characters who debuted on The Quick Draw McGraw Show and appeared in their own segment of that show. The segments centered around the misadventures of dachshund father-and-son team. Doggie Daddy tried to do the best he could at raising his rambunctious son Augie. Augie, who loved his father, would often refer to him as "dear old Dad." Their mutual admiration included Daddy gently childing, "Augie, my son, my son" when he would disappoint his father; and when his son would say or do something that inspired pride, Daddy would turn to the audience and say with a grin, "Dat's my boy who said dat!" The segments and characters were similar to the Spike and Tyke cartoons William Hanna and Joseph Barbera produced during their theatrical animation careers at MGM in the 1940s and 1950s.
The voices of Doggie Daddy and Augie Doggie are Doug Young who impersonates Jimmy Durante and Daws Butler.
