Teen idol movie star Valentine Van Loon is in town for some personal appearances. However she cancels those appearances until the love of her life, who is missing, returns: her shaggy-haired dog, Boo Boo. Dobie wants to find Boo Boo if only for the eternal gratitude i.e. love, of the beautiful Valentine. Herbert wants to find Boo Boo if only for the $500 reward money. What Herbert is unaware of, but what Dobie knows is that Maynard has found Boo Boo. Maynard wants to return the dog to whoever the rightful owner, but Dobie has to convince him to allow him to return the dog. Meanwhile, Herbert, using his own tactics, seems only to attract this small dog, who just won't leave him alone. Can Dobie, Herbert or Maynard get what they want? Only at a publicity event orchestrated by Valentine's aggressive agent Speed Pulitzer will we find out.
