| ==Plot== | | === Main characters === |
| At the [[Spadina Road Animal Shelter]], Arthur pours food into a dog's bowl. After suggesting that Francine was always good at sports and Buster was able to make people laugh even as a baby, he explains that he learned he was good at handling animals when a group of dogs started playing with him at the park. [[Mr. Samuels]] thanks Arthur for his work at the dog shelter, when the phone rings. Arthur answers, and [[Buster Baxter|Buster]] explains that he nervous about taking care of his aunt's dog, named Carrot Cake. Arthur goes over to help him.

| At the animal shelter, Arthur gets a thorn out of a dog's nose, to which it happily licks him. Mr. Samuels suggests that he give Carrot Cake time to get used to him. Arthur sits in Buster's living room and stares at Carrot Cake chewing on a toy bone; despite watching for over an hour, she still does not approach him.

| | * [[Mr. Samuels]] |
| | | * [[Pal]] |
| Buster brings Carrot Cake to Arthur's house, although she likes D.W. instead. While Carrot Cake is sleeping on D.W.'s bed, Arthur sleeps in it overnight. After Carrot Cake wakes up, she runs out of the room, knocking over a dog gate Arthur had set up, and jumps out of the window. D.W. asks Arthur why he cares so much about getting Carrot Cake to like him; he answers that there also must be other dogs who do not like him, and that means he is not a dog person. D.W. points out that his logic does not make sense, and he soon agrees.

| Arthur finds Carrot Cake in the bushes with thorns in her nose, and gets D.W.'s help with removing them. Buster explains that Carrot Cake does not like most of the people in his aunt's household, and Arthur sympathizes with Carrot Cake. He brings her to the shelter, where she is treated again and licks Arthur as she leaves. Arthur goes to work at the shelter again, and the dogs react enthusiastically at his return.
