Synopsis/Details
This is a ½ hour comedy cartoon with real-life actors.
Nickelback, a one-year-old Labrador Retriever is brought into the home of Lori and Walter to keep their Labrador Retriever, Zoey, company while they are at work. Nickelback has an unusually large head and is a little slow in his thinking. Zoey is smart and quick thinking.
Nickelback is frightened of his new surroundings but with Zoey’s help, he adjusts.
Nickelback snores when he sleeps and sleeping with his legs in the air gives the appearance that he is dead. The first night in his new home Lori sees this and believes he is dead.
Romping around the back yard the two dogs encounter the two mischievous ground squirrels, Ed and Eddie.
Ed and Eddie find their fun in teasing the dogs by sneaking into the house at night and jumping on them and spitting water on them.
The dogs retaliate by pooping next to their burrow and digging up their entrance hole.
Follow Zoey and Nickelback as they go through the daily lives of dogs.
