Sock A Doodle Do is the three hundredth Looney Tunes theatrical short. It was released by Warner Bros. Pictures and The Vitaphone Corporation on May 10, 1952. It was produced by Edward Selzer, written by Tedd Pierce, and directed by Robert McKimson.
When Kid Banty, the World's Champion Fighting Rooster and Pin Featherweight Champ, gets left behind on a farm, Foghorn Leghorn learns that the little punchy rooster goes into a boxing frenzy whenever he hears a bell. He decides to use that knowledge to get back at the Barnyard Dawg after he pranks him.

Behind the scenes
- The title is a pun of the rooster's call, "Cock-a-doodle-do." This phrase would be used for two more title puns in later Foghorn Leghorn cartoons: Crockett-Doodle-Do (1960) and Cock-A-Doodle-Duel (2004).
Legacy
- Kid Banty's design was used for the unnamed banty rooster in the 1957 Merrie Melodies cartoon, Fox-Terror.
