"A nutrition film for children, in which a playful litter of pups from the kennels of the Royal Canadian Mounted Police are used to demonstrate the ralationship of sensible food to energy and growth. Half the litter is fed properly and half on food lacking certain elements. The difference is soon apparent. The film explains the nutritional values of the foods in a balanced diet."

"Que doivent manger les enfants, les adolescents, les femmes enceintes et les vieillards ? Comment composer un menu 'dans le vent' ? Au cours de ce film, des chiots ont été utilisés pour démontrer les effets de la malnutrition. Chacun apprendra quels aliments contiennent les vitamines essentielles à la santé et retiendra que 'l'on est ce que l'on mange'."
