Storyline

Beaver brings home a chihuahua that Whitey found rummaging through his garbage can. By looking at the well kept manner of the dog, Ward and June can tell that it isn't a stray and that they'll help Beaver place a classified ad in the newspaper to find its real owner. Although Beaver abides by his parents directive, he deep down hopes that the owner does not come forward so that he can keep the dog. A Mrs. Bennett telephones, perfectly describing the dog as her Poncho. Learning this news, Beaver decides to take Poncho to school instead of letting Mrs. Bennett take the dog back. The dog at school gets Beaver into trouble. When Ward and June ultimately find out what Beaver has done, he gets into even more trouble. But Beaver's explanation to Mrs. Bennett offers a little more insight for Ward and June on how they should deal with the punishment for Beaver. Written by Huggo
