Every day, Lucy goes to school and leaves her puppy at home. But today, determined to find out what school is, he sets off on an adventure to go to Puppy School! The young dogs learn important skills such as scratching behind their ears, learning to sleep wherever they go, and most importantly, how to leave a scent trail - which comes in handy when our puppy finds himself separated from his friends... Can he follow the trail that'll lead him back home to Lucy?
The perfect story for dog-lovers, and fans of Oi Dog! (Kes Gray and Jim Field) and Dogger (Shirley Hughes).
