A hunter trains his dog to retrieve sticks and gently carry eggs in his mouth; but the dog refuses to retrieve the wounded birds for his master. Instead the dog takes the ducks to a place where they can heal and carries sticks back to his master who soon discovers what the dog is doing. When the hunter finds out, he is ashamed and he helps nurse the birds back to health and then sets them free.
