Mister Bud has a schedule. Things like wake-up time, nap time, snooze time, and shift-position-and-rest-some-more time are carefully planned. And everyone in his house follows his schedule. Then disaster: A strange dog comes home at make-a-fuss time and throws off the whole schedule! Zorro is his name. And he is bossy. Mister Bud and Zorro want nothing to do with each other- until they discover they like the same things. Everything becomes more fun with two...as long as everyone follows the schedule. Playful text and illustrations from a master animator give these two pups such personality, they'll melt the hearts of dog-lovers everywhere.
