Badly drawn dog is fed up with his looks, so he decides to visit his friend, Doodle the Poodle. But on the way, he sees an artist's studio and here - the fun begins. The artist rubs him out - legs, head, even sketchy eyebrows, and starts again. The results are hilarious: the first style which the artist uses is cubist. Looks good - but on his way to Doodle the Poodle's house, Badly Drawn Dog finds that walking in a straight line is just impossible - never mind playing football. Pop art and post impressionist follow. Finally of course, Badly Drawn Dog goes back to his friend - the child who drew him in the first place. Boy... is he glad to be back to normal.
