When Gnipper is imprisoned in Beanotown dog pound, Dennis sets up a dramatic plan to rescue him by sending Gnasher into the dog pound under false pretences. However, when Gnasher does not come home with Gnipper, Dennis takes it upon himself to rescue them both by posing as a misbehaving dog. Dennis is seized and sent to the dog pound, where he realises exactly why Gnipper and Gnasher have not come home—the dog pound is a dog palace where all the pampered dogs get whatever they want. After spotting Dennis, Gnasher is ecstatic to be reunited but trouble arises when the kennel warden arrives. She loves Gnasher, and does not want to see him taken away. Despite the sausages on offer, Gnasher makes his choice clear, and together, the three of them escape from the kennel to go home.
