While watching television, four dachshunds learn that the new president of the United States is in the process of filling his cabinet. Because dogs don't completely understand human beings (which is understandable!), they think that the president's cabinet is where the nation's supply of dog biscuits is kept. Children, as well as adults, will "howl" with laughter as they join the daring dachshunds planning a cross-country journey of historic proportions!
