Dog's Best Friend Arthur

# Every day when you're walkin' down the street

# Everybody that you meet

# Has an original point of view

-# And I say, hey!

-Hey!

# What a wonderful kind of day

# If we can learn to work and play

# And get along with each other

# You gotta listen to your heart Listen to the beat

# Listen to the rhythm The rhythm of the street

# Open up your eyes! Open up your ears!

# Get together and make things better by working together

# It's a simple message

# And it comes from the heart

# Oh, believe in yourself

# For that's the place to start

-# And I say, hey!

-Hey!

-What a wonderful kind of day

# If we can learn to work and play And get along with each other

# What a wonderful kind of day, hey! What a wonderful kind of day, HEY! #

Hey, DW!

-Hey!

-Whoa!

CRASH!

Welcome to another exciting episode of Pet Owner Whisperer.

Taking care of a pet owner is a big responsibility.

You must make sure your pet owner has a healthy diet.

Huh?!

Exercise is very important for them.

They may resist you at first, but you must be assertive.

Ah!

ARTHUR SCREAMS

And always remember you must reward your pet owner

when they follow instructions.

ARTHUR LAUGHS

What are you doing?

I was just showing the audience how to care for your pet owner.

But Arthur is my pet owner.

Why didn't you use Alberto?

He wasn't around and I just happened to be in your yard, so...

PAL BARKS

AMIGO SIGHS

The most important thing, however,

is to let your pet owner know who's in charge.

Thank you for agreeing to look after Amigo while I'm away.

-No problem. I'm sure you'll do great at the hockey championships.

-Thanks.

Come on, boy. Let's try one more time.

Let's impress Arthur.

AMIGO GROANS

Ah. I've been trying to teach him to catch that ball for weeks now.

See you, Alberto.

Don't worry about a thing. Good luck.

Amazing! How did you teach him?

What can I say?

I'm really good with dogs.

Up, Amigo.

One leg.

No legs.

Amazing!

Huh?

Amigo?

Welcome to our humble abode, old chap.

Allow me to take you on a tour of Reid Manor.

It was my old dog bed.

There might even be a few leftovers under there.

Thank you, my friend,

but the floor is fine for me.

Really?

All right. Suit yourself.

Dry food is served throughout the day.

Wet food is served only in the evenings.

I think tonight is lamb and rice.

Dry food and wet food?!

Increible!

Over here.

This is confidential information, but here is exactly where you

want to sit at breakfast - the corner between Kate and Arthur.

Neither of them can resist the puppy face.

Thank you, but I've been trained not to beg at the table.

Oh. Well, oh, no, it's not really begging.

I simply show up at the right place at the right time.

Amigo!

Has Pal been getting you settled?

We're so happy to have you for the weekend.

It is I who am honoured to be your guest.

Oh, I almost forgot.

From our garden.

Oh, you shouldn't have.

Isn't he the perfect gentleman?

Yes, well, we mustn't dawdle.

There's still more of the house to see. Come, come.

PAL GASPS

What's going on? This ball almost hit me.

Don't look at me.

He threw it.

Ti-poo-patch-de-mall, Amigo.

What does he want?

I think he wants you to catch the ball.

Why? It's dirty.

Who knows why humans do anything?

He did it. He did it.

It's only the second day and I taught him the trick.

Ah, the simplest things make them happy.

They're just like puppies.

Ice-bob! Who-packed-a-mall?

Good boy, Amigo. Good boy.

-PAL GASPS

-What?

But I was the one who told him what to do.

Good boy!

Good boy!

Good boy!

Good boy!

Good boy!

Good boy!

No, Pal. That's Amigo's ball.

HE GASPS

It was terrible. Amigo got 47 "good boys".

I didn't get one.

And for what? Playing catch!

Oh, any dog can do that.

-It sounds to me like you're a little jealous.

-Jealous?!

PAL LAUGHS

How absurd. Why would I be jealous of Amigo?

It could be because he's so strong

or polite or generous or the fact that...

OK, OK. That's enough.

I can see that you've fallen under his spell as well.

Oh, Pal, don't be silly.

Oh, I am so tired.

That game is fun, but Arthur never gets bored of it.

How nice for you.

AMIGO GASPS

Nice catch, Pal. Good boy.

Nice catch, Pal. Good boy.

LAUGHTER IN DISTANCE

Oh, I knew it would happen sooner or later.

The little rag doll has finally lost his vittles.

Oh, be quiet, Nemo.

I'm not in the mood.

Well, I haven't seen you this down

since I buried your ham bone in kitty litter.

What's wrong?

PAL SIGHS

Arthur likes Amigo better than me.

I can't imagine why.

Perhaps it's because Amigo's so strong

or polite or generous or...

OK, OK, I get it.

Well, cheer up, mopey.

-There's an easy solution.

-There is?

Of course. Just make yourself look better.

Oh, wait, that's impossible.

You'd better make Amigo look bad instead.

That's what I would do.

But...that's so devious.

I know, that's why I like it.

ARTHUR GROANS

PAL GASPS

AMIGO SNORES

PAL LAUGHS

Oh, we'll see who's a good boy now.

For destruction of footwear, I order you to the pound.

Goodbye, Amigo.

I'll send you rawhide every week.

BUZZER

Hello, boy. How is it in there?

All we eat are vegetables and there are baths three times a day.

PAL GASPS

I don't know how much more I can take.

I'm innocent, Pal.

Time's up, liver lips.

Move along or it's the cone for you.

BUZZER

Oh, I can't go through with it.

TOY CLATTERS

ARTHUR GROANS

Who's that?

Oh, bad dog.

It was the worst scolding I've had since the Thanksgiving incident.

Oh, and sneaker doesn't taste half as good as turkey.

Never take the advice of a cat, Kate.

-May I stick my head in that hole?

-Be my guest.

But why did you want to get Amigo in trouble in the first place?

Because I thought it would make Arthur like me better again.

Oh, Pal, of course Arthur likes you better than Amigo.

No, he doesn't.

Ever since Amigo arrived it's "good dog, this," and "good dog, that."

All I ever get now is, "Heel! Sit! Stay!"

Oh, poor Pal.

Goodbye, old boy.

I wish you and Amigo all the best.

OWL HOOTS

Oh, be quiet, you silly owl.

Hoo-hoo-hoo. Who cares already?

Amigo? What are you doing here?

-I decided to come home a little early.

-But why?

Because I have upset you.

I don't want to come between you and Arthur.

He likes you better.

But you can't leave. I'm running away.

No, don't run away. Go home.

Absolutely not. I insist you go back.

You are too late, my friend,

I have already left.

Oh, dear.

Maybe neither of us should run away tonight.

Mira, look at the floor.

Amigo, relax, we're dogs.

They expect us to make a mess every now and then.

THEY GROWL

THEY SNORE

ARTHUR GASPS

What happened in here?

Hey, boy. Did you have a good time?

He wasn't any trouble, was he?

Er, well, no.

At least not until the end.

Hey, I've got a surprise for you.

Hey, Amigo. Let's impress Alberto.

PAL BARKS

Huh? What? But!

I know. I know, Arthur. Pal is talented.

You're a lucky guy. Come on, boy, let's go home.

AMIGO BARKS

Oh, I love having guests over for the weekend.

-You do?

-Oh, yes.

They always bring out the best in you.
