Unlike most shows, the dog was just in the background but not on this show. Buck Bundy was a beloved member of the family which isn't saying so much if you knew the family. From his point of view, he sees Al as the lovable loser desperate for the right German cheesecake from Wisconsin. So he sends Peggy on Jefferson and Marcy's honeymoon and when they return with the wrong cheesecake. Al goes to find the right one. While this is going on, Buck brings home a new dog, a female, who almost ended her life. She gets the attention of everybody in the household. I don't remember why Peggy wasn't in this episode anyway. It's a good episode and funny too.
