"Good morning, class. Today we are going to learn about Earth Hounds. Earth Hounds have fangs at the front and a waggler at the back. To find out which is which, hold a sausage at both ends." Dr Xargle is instructing his class of small fellow aliens on the nature and habits of the earth creatures known to us as dogs.

The doctor and his class of aliens take another trip to Earth - this time to study the hilarious antics of man's best friend, the Earth Hound.
