The story of how Charlie Brown found Snoopy

 

At the Daisy Hill Puppy Farm, a litter of eight beagles are born to a dog called Missy: Snoopy and his siblings Spike, Belle, Olaf, Molly, Rover, Andy, and Marbles. The puppies spend their time on the farm enjoying food and playing music with each other, but sadly await the day they will all be separated as they are sold by the farmer to new owners. Meanwhile, Charlie Brown, depressed from a recent defeat in baseball, expresses a desire to his sister Sally to have his own dog.

Snoopy is the first puppy to be sold, to a girl named Lila (previously seen in Snoopy Come Home). The other puppies follow, with Olaf being the last one. The farmer and Missy believe that the puppies have gone off to permanent, better lives. Snoopy and Lila bond easily, but after owning him for some time Lila learns that the landlord has changed the rules in her apartment complex, forbidding the ownership of dogs. Heartbroken, she is forced to take Snoopy back to the farm. The farmer assures Snoopy that they will find him a new home, through Snoopy is clearly affected by the separation from Lila.

Charlie Brown discovers an ad in the paper placed by the Daisy Hill Puppy Farm, and travels there with Linus. Charlie Brown and Snoopy meet for the first time, and quickly bond. On their way home, Linus informs Charlie Brown that Snoopy was previously owned by someone else. Charlie Brown declares it does not matter as Snoopy is now his dog. He quickly learns that Snoopy is a rather unusual dog, from sleeping on the roof of his kennel to taking up human activities like sports.

Five years later, Charlie Brown and Sally notice that Snoopy misses his family, and decide to organize a reunion at the Daisy Hill Puppy Farm. They send out invitations to his siblings, who all agree to attend, bringing their instruments along. When they get to the site of the farm, however, they discover that it was sold for redevelopment and is now buried beneath a parking garage. Though Charlie Brown and Sally are saddened, the siblings are happy to be together again and choose to go on with their reunion, playing their instruments together as they did when they were puppies.

At the end of the reunion, Charlie Brown wonders aloud how Snoopy's siblings will get home. Snoopy adapts his World War I flying ace persona and proceeds to fly all of his siblings home on his kennel. An incredulous Charlie Brown asks Linus how this is even possible, to which Linus replies, "Well, he's your dog, Charlie Brown.".
