Tramp gives Scamp "the facts" on good dog-behavior and staying out of trouble. Ditto for Dachsie and his puppy nephew Speedy. Tramp and Dachsie nap in the park, confident that the pups will adhere to "the facts". The pups do just that, but the list of "facts" was far from complete allowing Scamp and Speedy to innocently wreak havoc in the park, while believing they are behaving properly. Tramp and Dachsie find themselves in the dog pound, taking the blame for the pups' unintended mischief.
