Summary

Pathe synopsis: At Benson, Oxfordshire, they train dogs, cats, pigs and a whole variety of animals as four-legged film stars. We watch them learning the all-important lesson - discipline that enables them to get on together, foxes and birds sharing a meal with cats. And at Bexley, Kent, we see other trained animals rehearsing their fascinating acts - dressed up like dolls.
