Dog City is an animated children's television series that mixes cartoon animation with Muppet-style puppetry. It was produced by Nelvana Limited and Jim Henson Productions in association with Channel 4 in the United Kingdom and the Global Television Network in Canada. The show ran for three seasons on Fox Kids, from September 26, 1992, to November 26, 1994, and Canadian viewers kept seeing it on YTV until 2000. Its premise blends detective fiction with police comedy. Eliot Shag, a German Shepherd animator played by Kevin Clash, draws the adventures of Ace Hart, a cartoon German Shepherd private detective voiced by Ron White, and the two often talk to each other about the trouble the stories run into. The series grew out of Dog City: The Movie, an hour-long live-action television film made for an episode of The Jim Henson Hour in 1989, and the puppet cast built for that film carried over into the series.
