0:00:02 > 0:00:04# Oh, Waffle Oh, Waffle
0:00:04 > 0:00:08# Leaping around like a...frog
0:00:08 > 0:00:10# I just want to say one thing
0:00:10 > 0:00:15# You're such a clever dog
0:00:15 > 0:00:18# So many nights we're awake when you're woofin'
0:00:18 > 0:00:20# We still love you... #
0:00:20 > 0:00:21Everybody!
0:00:21 > 0:00:24# Waffle doggie!
0:00:24 > 0:00:28# Waffle doggie!
0:00:28 > 0:00:32# Waffle doggie!
0:00:32 > 0:00:33# You're such a clever dog
0:00:33 > 0:00:37# You're such a clever dog, you are
0:00:37 > 0:00:39# Whoa, oh, oh, oh
0:00:39 > 0:00:42# Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh. #
0:00:45 > 0:00:46Here we are.
0:00:46 > 0:00:49EVIE: It was the day of Waffle's first play date
0:00:49 > 0:00:52with Trevor and Violet at Mr Willow's house.
0:00:52 > 0:00:54- Do you need a hand with that, Evie? - No, thanks.
0:00:54 > 0:00:58And I had brought all the things that Waffle would need.
0:00:58 > 0:01:01Fact, it says in my book that dogs like to live together
0:01:01 > 0:01:05- in families called packs. - Ah, well, I'm sure Trevor and Violet
0:01:05 > 0:01:08would love to welcome Waffle into their pack.
0:01:08 > 0:01:12- WAFFLE:- Oh, pack! Play! - You must be polite today, Waffle.
0:01:12 > 0:01:15Yes. On a play date, you must say please and...?
0:01:15 > 0:01:17Thank you.
0:01:17 > 0:01:19- Oh, good boy.- Good boy.
0:01:19 > 0:01:21And when you burp, you say...?
0:01:21 > 0:01:23Excuse me.
0:01:23 > 0:01:25Good dog.
0:01:25 > 0:01:29- And when you leave, you say...? - Thanks for having me.
0:01:29 > 0:01:30Good boy!
0:01:30 > 0:01:32Hello, Brooklyn-Bells.
0:01:32 > 0:01:34Welcome.
0:01:34 > 0:01:36DOGS BARK
0:01:36 > 0:01:37Violet, Trevor!
0:01:37 > 0:01:39What a commotion!
0:01:39 > 0:01:42- Imagine if us humans said hello like that.- Yes.
0:01:42 > 0:01:44- HE BARKS - Hello, hello, hello.
0:01:44 > 0:01:46Hello, hello, hello.
0:01:46 > 0:01:49- HE BARKS - Hello, hello, hello.
0:01:49 > 0:01:51Hello, Mr Willow.
0:01:51 > 0:01:54Thank you so much for inviting Waffle today
0:01:54 > 0:01:57- for his first-ever play date. - Oh, he's very welcome.
0:01:57 > 0:01:59You're all very welcome.
0:01:59 > 0:02:01It's nice to meet you, Doug.
0:02:01 > 0:02:05- Now, into the garden. I've got a surprise for Waffle.- Ooh!
0:02:05 > 0:02:07Trevor, Violet!
0:02:11 > 0:02:13DOGS BARK
0:02:15 > 0:02:18Wow.
0:02:18 > 0:02:19Ta-da!
0:02:19 > 0:02:23- Mr Willow, you have a swimming pool!- Yes, indeed I have.
0:02:23 > 0:02:25And I thought it was such a nice day,
0:02:25 > 0:02:27the dogs could go for a dip in it.
0:02:27 > 0:02:30Violet, Trevor, show Waffle what to do.
0:02:30 > 0:02:32DOGS BARK
0:02:32 > 0:02:36Fact, swimming is a perfect way for dogs to cool off on a hot day.
0:02:36 > 0:02:38Agreed.
0:02:38 > 0:02:40- Now, who's hungry?- Oh, me. - Oh, me.
0:02:40 > 0:02:43- Wow, this looks fantastic, Mr Willow.- Yeah.
0:02:43 > 0:02:45- Look, Waffle's swimming! - Oh, yes!
0:02:45 > 0:02:49- Well done, Waffle! - Well done, Waffle.
0:02:49 > 0:02:53- And look, the salad looks like a dog's face.- Oh, yeah, yum.
0:02:53 > 0:02:56- Oh, I can't resist it. - Simon!- Oh, sorry.
0:02:56 > 0:03:00- There we go, it still looks like a dog.- OK, eat up, everyone.
0:03:00 > 0:03:04But before eating, I wanted to show Mr Willow
0:03:04 > 0:03:07all the special things that Waffle and I do together.
0:03:07 > 0:03:09Come on, Waffle.
0:03:09 > 0:03:11Waffle, come out of the pool.
0:03:11 > 0:03:14- Waffle, should we show Mr Willow our tricks?- Swimming.
0:03:14 > 0:03:16No, here, Waffle!
0:03:16 > 0:03:19I think all the dogs could do with a drink of water
0:03:19 > 0:03:22on a hot day like this. Trevor, Violet, Waffle,
0:03:22 > 0:03:24out you get. Drinkies.
0:03:27 > 0:03:29DOGS BARK
0:03:32 > 0:03:36Why did Waffle come out to you, but not to me?
0:03:36 > 0:03:41I expect he was just following what Trevor and Violet did, Evie.
0:03:41 > 0:03:43I've got your favourite bowl, Waffle.
0:03:43 > 0:03:44No, this one.
0:03:46 > 0:03:47Waffle, Waffle.
0:03:52 > 0:03:56Don't worry, Evie. He's just following the pack today.
0:03:56 > 0:03:59Come on, let's get you back in the pool, everyone.
0:03:59 > 0:04:01- Come on, dogs. In you go. - DOGS BARK
0:04:03 > 0:04:05Swimming, yay!
0:04:07 > 0:04:09Oh, no!
0:04:09 > 0:04:11THEY GRUNT
0:04:11 > 0:04:12THEY LAUGH
0:04:15 > 0:04:18- On that note, I think it's home time, everyone.- Yeah.
0:04:18 > 0:04:22Oh, what a shame. OK, all dogs ashore.
0:04:22 > 0:04:24Oh, that means you too, Waffle. Come on.
0:04:24 > 0:04:26It was such a lovely lunch, Mr Willow.
0:04:26 > 0:04:29Oh, yes, it was. Thank you, Jess.
0:04:29 > 0:04:30Oh, come on, Trevor.
0:04:30 > 0:04:31That's it.
0:04:31 > 0:04:34- Oh, Trevor! - SHE LAUGHS
0:04:34 > 0:04:36Come on, Violet.
0:04:36 > 0:04:39- Oh, no! - SHE LAUGHS
0:04:39 > 0:04:40Waffle!
0:04:40 > 0:04:43Waffle, I brought your favourite towel.
0:04:43 > 0:04:45- WAFFLE BARKS - Violet!
0:04:46 > 0:04:48Trevor!
0:04:49 > 0:04:51Mum?
0:04:51 > 0:04:54- Yes?- Does Waffle still like me? - Oh, of course he does, Evie.
0:04:54 > 0:04:58He's just having fun with Trevor and Violet, that's all.
0:04:58 > 0:05:00Fact, it says in my book
0:05:00 > 0:05:03it's good for dogs to spend time with other dogs.
0:05:03 > 0:05:07Waffle can visit us whenever he likes, and stay as long as he likes.
0:05:07 > 0:05:09Great, Waffle stay.
0:05:11 > 0:05:14Hey, Waffle could stay overnight, if that's OK with you all.
0:05:14 > 0:05:18His first play date could become his first sleepover.
0:05:18 > 0:05:20Oh, yes!
0:05:20 > 0:05:21No!
0:05:21 > 0:05:24We can't leave our Waffle behind.
0:05:24 > 0:05:27Evie, he's having a really, really good time.
0:05:27 > 0:05:28And like Doug said,
0:05:28 > 0:05:31it's important for him to be with other dogs.
0:05:31 > 0:05:34Waffle might like having two homes, like I do.
0:05:34 > 0:05:35I like OUR home,
0:05:35 > 0:05:38but I also like staying at my mum's flat.
0:05:38 > 0:05:40DOGS BARK Um... Erm...
0:05:40 > 0:05:42Ah, OK, then.
0:05:42 > 0:05:44You'll be just fine, come on.
0:05:44 > 0:05:47Thank you for a wonderful day, Mr Willow.
0:05:47 > 0:05:48Thank you, Mr Willow.
0:05:48 > 0:05:51See you tomorrow, Waffle.
0:05:51 > 0:05:53Come on.
0:06:05 > 0:06:06What's the time?
0:06:09 > 0:06:12It is five minutes and 20 seconds
0:06:12 > 0:06:15since you last asked me what time it is.
0:06:15 > 0:06:18Oh, come on, you two. Cheer up!
0:06:18 > 0:06:21We left Waffle behind so he could have some fun,
0:06:21 > 0:06:24and it's only for one night.
0:06:24 > 0:06:28Yes, but it doesn't feel right without Waffle.
0:06:28 > 0:06:32Yeah, that's what Doug said, and he still won't come out of his room.
0:06:35 > 0:06:37Let's do something as a family.
0:06:37 > 0:06:40How about we watch a film?
0:06:40 > 0:06:41We can't.
0:06:41 > 0:06:44Waffle hid the remote control.
0:06:44 > 0:06:46I really miss Waffle hiding things.
0:06:46 > 0:06:48Yeah.
0:06:48 > 0:06:51OK, then...
0:06:51 > 0:06:53Let's play a board game.
0:06:53 > 0:06:56But Waffle always brings me luck. HE SIGHS
0:06:58 > 0:07:00All right. How about reading?
0:07:00 > 0:07:02Doug can read his book to us.
0:07:02 > 0:07:06Doug! Can you come down, please, and read your book to us?
0:07:06 > 0:07:09- No!- He and Waffle are reading Treasure Island together.
0:07:09 > 0:07:13Doug'll never move onto the next chapter without Waffle.
0:07:13 > 0:07:16There must be something we can do together.
0:07:16 > 0:07:19Oh, sitting in silence.
0:07:19 > 0:07:22Let's all sit together in silence without Waffle.
0:07:29 > 0:07:31DOORBELL RINGS
0:07:32 > 0:07:34Waffle?
0:07:34 > 0:07:36Doug, come down!
0:07:36 > 0:07:37What? What is it?
0:07:39 > 0:07:42- THEY SIGH - Oh, it's only you, Mrs Hobbs.
0:07:42 > 0:07:43Charming.
0:07:43 > 0:07:46Sorry, sorry, I mean... Please come in.
0:07:46 > 0:07:49Is everything OK, Jess?
0:07:49 > 0:07:51I accidentally put my ear to the wall
0:07:51 > 0:07:54and I couldn't hear Waffle.
0:07:54 > 0:07:55No barking, no whining,
0:07:55 > 0:07:58not even asking Simon to throw him a ball.
0:07:58 > 0:08:00Is he ill?
0:08:00 > 0:08:03- He's not here today. - He's with our friend, Mr Willow,
0:08:03 > 0:08:06and his two dogs, Trevor and Violet,
0:08:06 > 0:08:09- and he's only staying for one night. - He might never come back.
0:08:09 > 0:08:11He's part of a new pack now.
0:08:11 > 0:08:13Really? Whee!
0:08:13 > 0:08:16EVIE SIGHS
0:08:16 > 0:08:18Oh, sorry.
0:08:18 > 0:08:21Don't worry, Waffle will soon be back.
0:08:21 > 0:08:22I know animals,
0:08:22 > 0:08:25and I know Waffle, unfortunately,
0:08:25 > 0:08:28and for all his faults, he loves this family very much -
0:08:28 > 0:08:31especially you, Evie and Doug.
0:08:31 > 0:08:34- Thank you, Mrs Hobbs. - And if you're missing a pet,
0:08:34 > 0:08:38you could always come next door and play with George.
0:08:38 > 0:08:40Except Thursdays.
0:08:40 > 0:08:45Oh, and Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays.
0:08:45 > 0:08:48Oh, and the weekends aren't good for us.
0:08:48 > 0:08:50Erm...
0:08:50 > 0:08:51Call ahead.
0:08:51 > 0:08:53Thank you. Thank you, Mrs Hobbs.
0:08:53 > 0:08:56- PHONE RINGS - Oh, it's Mr Willow.
0:08:56 > 0:08:59- Hello?- Hello, can you see me?
0:08:59 > 0:09:02- Yeah.- Is Waffle OK?
0:09:02 > 0:09:07Oh, yes. He's been having a lovely time playing with Violet and Trevor.
0:09:07 > 0:09:08I'll let him explain.
0:09:10 > 0:09:11Miss you.
0:09:11 > 0:09:12ALL: Aw.
0:09:12 > 0:09:14We miss you too, Waffle.
0:09:14 > 0:09:16Waffle, do you want to come home?

0:09:22 > 0:09:24No!
0:09:24 > 0:09:27- Don't worry, Waffle. We're coming to get you.- Right.
0:09:27 > 0:09:29There's no time to lose!
0:09:32 > 0:09:34Oh!
0:09:34 > 0:09:36I missed you, Waffle.
0:09:36 > 0:09:40- I'm so sorry Waffle didn't want to stay, Mr Willow.- Oh, not at all.
0:09:40 > 0:09:44- Waffle's welcome to come and play and sleepover another time.- Aw.
0:09:44 > 0:09:45Thanks for having me.
0:09:45 > 0:09:48Oh, good boy. Come on, let's go home, everybody.
0:09:48 > 0:09:51Come on. Come on.
0:09:51 > 0:09:54- Bye-bye.- Bye, all.- Bye!
0:09:54 > 0:09:55Oh, Waffle.
0:09:55 > 0:10:00- We missed you, leaping around like a frog.- Ribbet.
0:10:00 > 0:10:03We just want to say one thing.
0:10:03 > 0:10:05# You're such a clever dog... #
0:10:05 > 0:10:07Come on!
0:10:07 > 0:10:11# And so many nights we're awake when you're woofin'
0:10:11 > 0:10:12# But we still love you... #

0:10:26 > 0:10:29EVIE: So, that was the day we all realised
0:10:29 > 0:10:31how much Waffle was part of our pack.
0:10:31 > 0:10:34I don't mind sharing my wonder dog,
0:10:34 > 0:10:35just not too much.
0:10:35 > 0:10:38- Well done, you three. - HE BARKS
