"Put
out of the house for chewing the rug, then in the
doghouse again for letting two scruffy strays scatter
his family's garbage, Baxter despondently runs away
from home. As he mopes out of their yard, however,
he is stopped by Grandpaw, his wise patriarch, whose
story about learning to say "NO" to bad
things, being your own best friend, and believing
you are special, motivates the young pooch to turn
his life around. Blatantly preaching against breaking
rules, drinking liquor, and smoking cigarettes,
this dramatically shot show effectively barks out
valuable messages on self-esteem to younger children."
