Wiki.

Yankee Dood It is a 1956 Warner Bros. Merrie Melodies theatrical cartoon short directed by Friz Freleng and written by Warren Foster. The short was released on October 13, 1956 and features Elmer Fudd and Sylvester.The title is a pun on Red Skelton's famous "I Dood It" line from the Mean Widdle Kid routine.

Yankee Dood It was the last of three cartoons to be underwritten by the Alfred P. Sloan Foundation, which also underwrote By Word of Mouse and Heir-Conditioned. All three are available on the second disc of Looney Tunes Golden Collection: Volume 6. This cartoon is also one of the few cartoons where Sylvester has no speaking lines (except for "Ah-ha!" and "Sufferin' Succotash").
