Summary

Arthur gets a puppy and names him Pal, but training his pet turns out to be much harder than he had imagined.

Plot

In the intro, Arthur is playing with his new puppy. He tells the viewer he never got the chance to name him. He said it have to be just right for the puppy because a name for him can effect the way he thinks of himself and how he will grow up. He thoughts of names like Champion, Bionic Puppy, but wont name the dog after his friends like Buster, Francine, and definitely not Binky. So he decide on the name Pal.

Soon they went into the kitchen and D.W. is there getting a drink. She see Arthur writing Pal's name on his bowl. She suggest that Arthur should name Pal "Fredrick" because looks like one. Arthur doesn't like that name, and said that Pal likes his name and to prove it, he calls his puppy. Pal runs to Arthur, but only to go to his bowl. D.W. thinks Pal not very smart, but Arthur say that Pal is a genius and D.W. comments he hides it very well. Arthur said he is once Pal is trained soon, which D.W. said she will be in college by then and bet Arthur a million dollars. Pal goes to the living room, and Jane calls Arthur from the living room saying the rug is getting wet. Arthur quickly grabs Pal to go outside and D.W. follows along asking if Arthur wanna bet 12 million dollars.

Arthur is outside taking Pal on a walk. He soon see Francine on her bike and they greet each other. He tells her that he name the puppy Pal. Francine said he look more like a Steve, but Arthur doesn't think so. Pal began to chew on his leash and Francine asks Arthur does Pal do anything beside that. Arthur said not yet but will teach Pal some tricks soon, but for now he just house training him. Francine advise Arthur to train Pal quick because her cousin had a dog she couldn't train; and her parents made the dog go live on the farm, which scares Arthur a little, and Pal bit Francine wheels.
