Heckle and Jeckle, the talking Magpies, are running rampant and causing much havoc in a supermarket mush to the dismay of the proprietor. Seveal wild chase ensue, with the store owner on the short end of most of them, until all three are caught inside of a giant soap bubble and carried skyward. The bubble bursts, and H & J are returned to the cartoonist's inkwell.

Answering a call for dogs to contribute to the war effort and join the "W.O.O.F.S." a small white puppy falls in with the others at a training facility manned by Gandy and Sourpuss. To clean them up, Gandy removes their fleas with a vacuum cleaner labeled "Flea Internment Camp". While the rest go through exercises and drilling, the puppy isn't big enough, so he's washed out. Moping around the beach, he sees a German submarine land and three fat pig Nazis emerge, one looking like Hitler. The pup alerts Sourpuss and the dogs, and a shootout ensues, the Nazis holed up in a shack. They toss out a bomb, but our hero tosses it back, blowing up the structure, and leaving the pigs as three hams with a swastika imprints. The pooch is truly patriotic, and gets a flag-waving medal ceremony.

Papa Bear, his cubs and the Hound Dog go duck hunting and, as usual, the experts (Papa and the dog) have nothing but misadventures, while the amateur hunters bag all the ducks. When Papa returns home, empty-handed, angry and frustrated, he throws the ammunition into the fireplace, followed by a barrage of bullets firing upward through the chimney and bringing down a flock of ducks that were flying overhead.
