Are you talking about Sir Winston, the red and white puppy at the beginning? If so, he was a Cavalier King Charles Spaniel, not a Cocker Spaniel. I think of CKCS as the ‘permanent puppy’ looking version of the Cocker.

How about _The Happy Colors Show_? That was another of Earl Sinclair’s programming masterstrokes.

You can see a sample of it [here](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:SMPTE_Color_Bars.svg).
