On the way back to his ship, Popeye befriends a little puppy that has a can tied to his tail. The abandoned puppy insists on following the sailor despite the latter's warnings that dogs are not allowed on his ship. After many attempts, Popeye evades the canine orphan and is on his way again, when dogcatcher Brutus nabs the pup. Each time Popeye gets the dog free, Brutus captures it again. Finally, with the aid of his spinach, Popeye rescues the dog. In the end, Popeye takes the puppy with him by tying a raft (with a doghouse on it) to the back of his ship.
