Harry, a white dog with black spots enjoys playing in the sprinklers, climbing trees, and especially doing tricks. His first adventure is with an overturned trash can, and eventually he is picked up by a garbage truck and carried to a far away dump. Many adventures later he returns home, a dirtier, wiser dog. Based on the book by Gene Zion.
