A Dog Is a Love Sponge

"A Dog Is a Love Sponge" is the second song from "Dog Days." It is sung by an off-screen Kitty about how to treat dogs and how they can be "man's best friend." Throughout the segment a raccoon boy takes in a dog.

This is the one "Danger Rangers" song not to show any of the characters singing.
