A family of tourists lose their puppy. After a long night lost in the forest, the puppy is found by Peter, a young country worker who adopts him and takes him to his aunt and uncle's farmhouse. The adoptive country folks are totally baffled as to what kind of breed he is. Named 'Scruff' he lives amidst livestock, poultry, and a couple of other dogs called Sanda and Tricks, who has become family over the years.—Earl Robertson
