Can Scrapper make it up to them, or are dogs and squirrels destined to feud forever?

Scrapper, Darla, and Mitts are having a party in the forest, complete with dog treats and the remote control to Scrapper's family's television. 🤣 But when Scrapper happens upon a squirrel's secret stash of acorns, a strange new bond happens. Very interesting.

We loved this one. It was fun to see the interactions between the pack and the squirrels, and I love that it ended in a friendship that I'm sure we will see throughout the series.
