Description

Begins with Martie a golden Labrador 'greeting' a black Labrador. Next we see the black Labrador with puppies, all black except one. Martie meets the pups. The rest of the film includes another dog gently placing a baby rabbit with own puppies, an blackbird on a windowsill and Martie showing an interest in an owl chick sitting in the hollow of a tree trunk. We see Martie with a gosling on the lawn and a blue tit in its nest. Finally Martie is seen eating from a dish and retrieving objects in the house including shoes and a newspaper for his master. Martie then 'watches' TV.
