Synopsis

All the animals on the farm are sleeping happily – until Dog starts to snore! On and on, he snores through the night while the other animals grow crosser and sleepier by the minute.

Something has to be done. So the animals get together and make every noise they can think of to wake up Dog, but still he just keeps on sleeping – and snoring.

As the sun rises in the morning Dog finally wakes up, ready for another day. The other animals of course, are more than ready for a good day’s sleep.
