Lucy : Towser, what's going on? What is it? What's all the gossip?
Towser : 'Taint no gossip, Lucy. It be all the way from London.
Lucy : You don't say!
Towser : Fifteen puppies stolen!
Lucy : There's no puppies around here, not since Nellie's last litter and they all are grown.
Towser : Well, then we'd best send the word along. It be up to me to reach the Colonel! He be the only one in barking range.
Lucy : You'll never reach him at this hour.
Towser : Well I can try! I'll bark all night if I have to.

Captain : [neighing lowly] Hmm-hmm-hmm. Hmm... sounds like old Towser. It's an alert. Sergeant!
[He speaks louder to wake up Sergeant Tibbs, a tabby cat sleeping on his back]
Captain : Sergeant Tibbs! I SAY, SERGEANT!
[He neighs loudly to wake up Tibbs]
Seargent Tibs : [screeches, then promptly salutes] Who? What? Oh, yes, Captain!
Captain : Barking signal. It's an alert. Report to the Colonel at once.
Seargent Tibs : [respectfully] Yes, sir. Righto, sir. Right away, sir!
[Tibbs hops off Captain's back and scurries along the barn rafters to find Colonel. He reaches an empty barn stall with plenty of hay scattered on the floor and looks for Colonel]
Seargent Tibs : Colonel? I say, Colonel! Colonel, sir? Colonel?
[Tibbs yelps as he is lifted on his superior's head buried inside the hay]
Seargent Tibs : Colonel?
Colonel : [waking up] What? What? Who goes there?
Seargent Tibs : Sergeant Tibbs reporting, sir.
Colonel : Tibbs? Tibbs? Oh, yes, Sergeant Tibbs!
Seargent Tibs : Colonel, sir...
Colonel : Now, look here, Tibbs. What's the idea of barging in at this hour of the night?
Seargent Tibs : But, Colonel...
Colonel : Hold on, Sergeant. You hear that? Sounds like an alert.
Seargent Tibs : [sighs] Yes, Colonel.
Colonel : Well, we'd better look into it. Come along, on the double!
Seargent Tibs : Yes, sir. Righto, sir.
[Tibbs follows Colonel to the stall next to Captain's stall, just as Captain himself hears the last of the message]
Captain : It's old Towser down at Withermarsh, sir.
Colonel : By Jove, yes! So it is. Well, I'll see what he wants. Ahem!
[barking]
Colonel : Woof, woof, woof! Woof, woof, woof!
[Back on the hill a good distance away from the farm, Towser receives the response from Colonel with Lucy holding up his left ear]
Towser : It'd be the Colonel. The old boy himself!
[chuckles]
Towser : He wants the message.
Lucy : You'd better make it loud and clear or he'll never get it.
[Towser then barks the message about the fifteen stolen puppies]
