Spike is trying to become the head of "Man's Best Friend Society" and promises to protect people at all times and not have anything to do with cats. He then finds Tyke playing with a cute little kitten and makes him promise to stop. When the kitten finds out what is going on he dresses up like a baby to get Tyke to play with him. When Tyke sees through the disguise and smacks him Spike thinks he is hitting a baby. Snowball runs away so that Spike won't see through the disguise and ends up in a pond. Spike saves him but the disguise comes off and the other dogs don't want anything to do with him because he saved a cat. An adult sees him save the kitten and makes him the honorary president of the pussycat protective association instead.; Mrs. Jones yells at Spike and Tyke for digging in the yard and tells them to get out of the yard. They try to help people so that Mrs. Jones won't be mad at them anymore, but every time they try the people misunderstand and get them in trouble with Mrs. Jones. When their last idea backfires and the police bring them home Mrs. Jones tells them to do whatever they want but to stay in the yard.; Spike and Tyke are heading home for supper but stop to help a dachsund that can't keep up with the rest of his family. When they finally get home they find out that the cat ate their food because he didn't think they were coming. They go to the dog they helped and he helps them to look like one big dachsund so that he can eat with them.; Spike and Tyke find out that a postman is going to hand out doggie treats to keep dogs from bothering them so they go to each house on his route getting treats. They even try to get rid of the dogs that are already at the houses, but the postman figures it out and won't give them anymore. Since he won't give them the treats Spike and Tyke trick him and eat the rest of his treats. When the postman tells Mr. Jones what happened he makes Spike and Tyke make the rest of the dogs on the route leave the mailman alone.; Jerry and Tuffy try to take a pumpkin out of Tom's pumpkin patch but he says they have to pay for it. They agree to pull weeds for it and work until they are exhausted. Tom then tells them that they can have a really little pumpkin. They accept it but say they will leave it attached to the vine until it is larger.; Spike is getting tired digging a hole so Tyke shows him an open manhole. They drop their bones in but are chased away by an angry worker with lumps on his head.
