In preparation for the release of Soul on Disney+, Arun and Patricia decide to do a spinoff of PixMix called PixMinis where they look back on a Pixar short every day until December 25th.

In this episode, they look back on the 2009 Pixar short Dug\'s Special Mission which was available as a bonus feature in the Up DVD and Blu-Ray. The short focuses on Dug, the dog who was part of Charles Muntz\'s dog tracking pack to locate the rare bird at Paradise Falls. It takes place before the events where Dug met Carl Frederickson and Russell where he messes the chances of Alpha and his dog pack to locate the bird and he is placed in locations where he wouldn\'t get in the way. However, wacky hijinks ensue and Dug causes more trouble than helps.  Similar to Jack-Jack Attack and BURN-E, it takes place during the original plot of Up. How does this short stack compared to the others? Listen and find out.
