Yakky Doodle is a series of animated segments as part of The Yogi Bear Show, produced by Hanna-Barbera Productions. Airing in syndication, it ran from 1961 to 1962, airing 32 episodes that spanned two seasons.
Yakky Doodle is a little duck who lives with his best friend Chopper the bulldog. Yakky is always the one goes into dangerous territory—especially in times when it is expected—and it usually comes to him falling prey to Fibber Fox. Luckily for him, Chopper swoops in to defends his "Little Buddy", and is always ready to pound Fibber or any other enemy if necessary.
