Timmy is given charge of taking care of a litter of Irish Setter puppies but expects Lassie to take care of them, too. When she is less than enthusiastic, Timmy gets in a snit, and then makes a royal mess of things when he takes the puppies to an open field to "exercise" them and they end up running off. (Whatever was in Paul's head suggesting Timmy take 5 rambunctious puppies to a huge field all by himself, and let them loose?)
