Dialogue
[last lines]
Russian Dog: [crying] Oh, what have I done? I've killed the little rabbit! I don't deserve to live! Ohh! I wish I were dead! Oh, I wish I were dead!
Bugs Bunny: Eh, do ya mean it?
[Bugs gives the dog a gun so he can shoot himself in the head (in the theatrical cut) or shoots the dog in the mouth (in the director's cut). The dog falls to the ground, Bugs plants a flower on his chest and dances away into the distance. Irises in, but the dog gets up and stop the effect]
Russian Dog: [to the audience] This shouldn't even happen to a dog. [Iris closes in on Dog's muzzle] Oww!
