How to live with animals and look after them.
Introduced by Di Fisher.

Unruly dogs bite the postman and attack the neighbour's cat, damage the furniture and foul the garden. A trained dog is a far happier one and a better companion.
Stanley Dangerfield demonstrates how good training for puppies begins with the five commands 'sit,' 'stay,' 'down,' 'heel,' and 'come.'
And a five-year-old Border Collie called Meg shows that it's never too late to teach a good dog new, tests of obedience.

Starring Marius Goring
with Ann Morrish
and Victor Winding, Michael Farnsworth, Sally Nesbitt

A man falls overboard from a ship arriving in the estuary near Hull. He is washed ashore dead. Because of injuries sustained in the water he is unrecognisable.
It's amazing how a single situation like this can lead on to the most complex crimes. The most careful planning can go awry so easily, and only an expert can interpret the facts with which he is presented.
