Synopsis

Pudgy the Pup loses his bone on top of the coal bucket. Meanwhile, Betty Boop is preparing the wash tub for a dog bath. When Pudgy realizes what Betty has planned, he tries to get away. Betty has to pursue him through the house, including several laps under the living room rug. Betty finally gets Pudgy into the tub and washes him while singing the title song. Pudgy is all nice and clean, until he finds his bone, and knocks over the coal bucket to get it.
