The title is a pun on Red Skelton's "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.[5] 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").
