Uncle Murray takes Puppy on a walk and loses him after an encounter with an amorous bulldog. Murray eventually rescues Puppy, as well as a trio of dogs that wins his heart. Bad Kitty occasionally interjects with facts about dog behavior and pet care. Black-and-white cartoons maintain the humor of the somewhat drawn-out narrative. Information about breeds and pet adoption is appended.
