!!Tropes:
* AccidentalKiss: Tom and the bulldog kiss when the cat collides with him.
* AttackTheTail: This happens to Tom, courtesy of the two instances of the mouse trap below.
* BullyBulldog: The bulldog, who would later be known as Spike, is the main antagonist of the cartoon, chasing and trying to attack both Tom and Jerry.
* CuckooClockGag: As he is running from the bulldog, Jerry takes refuge in a cuckoo clock, whose bird pops out with him on it, giving the dog two chances to jump up and bite at him, only to miss. Then, when Jerry tries to get down from the clock, he ends up having to go back in when the bulldog ambushes him. The bird pops out with Jerry again, and this time, the dog manages to destroy the bird with a chomp from his jaws.

* LiteralAssKicking: Jerry does this to the bulldog in order to get him to chase him and run into the trap.
* MouseTrap:
** As Tom waits for Jerry to come out of his mouse hole, the latter comes out of an electrical outlet behind the cat and places a mouse trap near his tail, trying to get it caught in the trap. When Tom's tail keeps moving to avoid getting snapped, an impatient Jerry decides to grab it and place it on the mouse trap himself, with predictable results.
** Later, at the end of the short, Tom sits down, relieved that he and Jerry have gotten rid of the bulldog, only to get his tail caught in another mouse trap hidden behind a curtain.
