Chuck Jones recycled some classic Road Runner gags in his Ralph Wolf & Sam Sheepdog series. You'll see what I mean in 1960's "Ready, Woolen, & Able".
Notice the car Sam drives. It gives Mel Blanc an excuse to use the vocal effects he created for Jack Benny's Maxwell on the radio, and, still later, for Speed Buggy.
Technically, Ralph would be Wile E. Coyote's cousin. It's too bad there was never a crossover.
Rating: A.

In his (sort-of) autobiography book "Chuck Amuck" Jones stated that he considered Ralph Wolf to merely be "Wile E. Coyote in another role", which is likely why there was never a meeting between the 2 of them.
Despite the change in the colors of the eyes & nose. Hmmmmmm.
