The story

Youngsters Wheezer and Dorothy live with their wicked stepmother (Blanche Payson) and her bratty son Sherwood – whom they derisively call "Spud". Their father seems to be long gone, though Wheezer tearfully observes that since he said he'd come back for them, "I know he will". The two-tier class system among the people in the house is reflected by its canine residents: Spud's posh police dog Nero is described by mom as "a pedigreed animal" and has the run of the house, while Wheezer's dog Pete "is nothing but an alley dog" and is banned from entry.
