Bernie, the large, energetic sheepdog, is taken to Doggy Day Care to help him learn to behave. But Bernie has been raised on the farm. He's covered in fleas and has never had any shots. Dot, the day care director, finds this dog more than she can handle. Dot's own dog, Sweet Fifi, a tiny poodle, really takes a shine to Bernie. Dot has a difficult decision to make!
