Michael Maltese is named as a possible writer for this story as the dialogue and situations are "Maltese-ian", and reflective of an Augie Doggie cartoon - a series for which Maltese was the sole writer.

This story is a "plot-redirecting" of the Augie Doggie cartoon "Peck O' Trouble" (1960), where a wise-guy woodpecker plagues the father, rather than the pup. https://www.imdb.com/title/tt11490780/

Maltese has turned other Augie Doggie cartoon scripts into stories for Western publishing, such as this one. https://www.comics.org/issue/15214/#122657
