Summary
Thirteen-frame comic strip. Pinkey is hired to take a pushcart of food to the hotel. As he is walking he asks his dog Buck if he would like to eat the contents of the wagon, but before Pinkey can misbehave, two men come over and open the cart. Buck bites their feet. They run up a tree and leap from a branch just as a car is passing. Buck catches one criminal by the seat of his trousers and the passing motorist punches the other. The motorist buys Pinkey and Buck lunch, so the sausage cart is long forgotten.
