"Stop, or My Dog Will Shoot!"[1] is the twentieth episode of the eighteenth season of the American animated television series The Simpsons. It first aired on the Fox network in the United States on May 13, 2007.[1] When Santa's Little Helper rescues a lost Homer, he becomes a local hero and the Simpsons decide to enroll him in Police Dog Academy, where he is teamed with Lou and they become a crime-busting duo. Bart's excitement quickly vanishes after an incident with a jaded Santa's Little Helper, so to appease Bart's depression after the loss of his dog, Marge agrees to buy him a huge pet snake, which causes a life-threatening situation at Bart and Lisa's school. It was written by John Frink and directed by Matthew Faughnan.[1] Friend of the show Stephen Hawking makes his third guest appearance on the show as himself,[1] while Maurice LaMarche does the voice of the Horn Stuffer.[1] Rudy Giuliani makes a guest voice appearance as himself, although not in the original airing.[1] The fan-favorite song "Freak On a Leash" by metal band Korn is featured when Santa's Little Helper is trying to find Homer in a cornstalk maze. The episode was nominated for a Writers Guild of America Award.[2]
