About this episode

Charlie the dog is so excited for the first walk of spring! The sights! The smells! The squirrels! His human, Jane, has to remind him that it's NOT okay to chase them, but when one of the squirrels steals his peanut butter treat, Charlie can't help himself. What kind of trouble will this very good boy get into?
