The episode opens with Madeline and her group of friends, the 12 girls living in a boarding school in Paris, learning about an upcoming dog show in town. All the girls seem to be excited about the chance to see the dogs and the different breeds in the show, but Madeline's dog Genevieve is not allowed to join in on the fun. The headmistress of the boarding school, Miss Clavel, tells Madeline that having Genevieve run around during the show is not appropriate.

Madeline, however, is determined to find a way for Genevieve to attend the show. She seeks the help of Pepito, the brave young boy who lives next door, and together they come up with a plan. The two of them decide to dress Genevieve up as a show dog and sneak her into the competition. They work hard to make Genevieve look presentable by bathing her and putting a bow on her head.

Things do not go as smoothly as they had hoped, however. After sneaking into the show, Genevieve starts running around and disrupting the competition. The judges are not impressed by the little dog’s behavior and demand that she be taken off the premises. The kids’ plan had backfired, and now they are in trouble.

Madeline comes up with another plan to get Genevieve back into the show without being disruptive. While all the judges are looking elsewhere, Madeline sneaks Genevieve into the competition and shows off some of her dog-training skills. The judges are impressed with Genevieve's abilities and award her a prize.
