The Picnic is a 1930 American animated short film directed by Burt Gillett and produced by Walt Disney.[2] It was first released on October 9, 1930, as part of the Mickey Mouse film series.[3] It was the twenty-third Mickey Mouse short to be produced, the eighth of that year.[4]
The cartoon is notable as the first appearance of a pet dog called "Rover", an early version of a character that was renamed Pluto six months later, in the April 1931 cartoon The Moose Hunt.
