The following scenes were deleted from the short release due to time constraints:
*The opening pan of the snowy area.
*Pluto emerging from his doghouse headquarters and scratching himself as he heads off.
*Pluto clinging to the snowy cliff by his hind legs and trying to keep his keg from slipping away.
*All scenes between Pluto staring in surprise at Salty and Pluto, in chasing after Salty, falling off a cliff and landing in the icy water. Cuts include the following:
**Salty wanting to play with Pluto.
**Salty walking along underneath Pluto, confusing the latter as he hears the seal but not see him.
**The chase through the ice cave.
*The scene of Pluto in the icy water is shortened, cutting out him bumping his head against the ice and discovering a domed bit of ice over a hole in the ice surface.
*Salty looking through the ice to see Pluto swimming by tiredly.
== Trivia ==
*This is the first Pluto cartoon to have the post-1947 Pluto theme music in the opening titles (although, technically, it was first heard in the commercial short A Feather in His Collar). This theme music contains Mickey Mouse's voiceover (voiced by either Walt Disney or Jimmy MacDonald) saying, "Hey, Pluto!", along with Pluto's barks in the middle of the music. This theme would be used for the rest of the Pluto series (and one Mickey cartoon, Mickey Down Under) until its end in 1951 (although it would be used one last time in Pluto's Party, another Mickey cartoon). The music is also heard during Pluto's segment of Fantasy on Parade, as seen in the 1966 Wonderful World of Color episode, "Disneyland Around the Seasons".
* This is also the first cartoon to feature an updated Pluto sunburst opening headshot, which had the headshot redesigned to look cuter and match more closely to his standard 1940s design, and the headshot facing sideways as opposed to in front, which'd be used in subsequent Pluto cartoons until 1951.
** The opening card for the Pluto cartoons in Mickey Mouse Works is loosely based on the "Pluto" opening card from this short, albeit with a brighter cyan color background and Pluto's collar recolored green.
