Storyline:

Penrod Schofield’s mischievous dog, Duke, is falsely accused of biting Penrod’s spoiled friend, Rodney. The real culprit is Snook, a dog belonging to Danny, the new kid in town who just coincidentally looks exactly like Penrod. Penrod and his gang of “junior G-men” want to hide Duke with a friend in a neighboring town, so they send Rodney on a wild goose chase with a messenger pigeon to get him out of the way. Duke is taken by the police before the gang can get him to the train station but escapes, and Rodney is captured by a real life “most wanted” gang for witnessing a payroll robbery. Penrod and his gang meet Danny and realize why Duke was blamed for the dog bite. When they go to the police to explain they learn of Rodney’s predicament. They receive a clue from Rodney via messenger pigeon but are unable to convince the police, so they (including Danny) go to find Rodney themselves. Duke has managed to follow Rodney to the robber’s hideout and gives away their location. The “junior G-men” rescue Rodney and capture the crooks.

User review:

Sixteen-year-old Billy Mauch (as Penrod Schofield) is having trouble with his dog Duke. The cute mutt is chewing holes in shoes, and tracking mud through the house. Worst of all, Duke is the main suspect when neighborhood trouble-maker Jackie Morrow (as Rodney Bitts) gets dog-bitten. Young Mr. Mauch thinks mother Spring Byington (as Laura) and father Frank Craven (as Frank) may put the dog to sleep. But, “Penrod” pal Philip Hurlic (as Verman Diggs) wants to spring the pooch from the pound.

Meanwhile, “Penrod” look-alike Bobby Mauch (as Danny Dugan) has arrived in town, with his Aunt Minnie and a Duke look-alike dog. When the boys go skinny-dipping, Bobby Mauch is mistaken for Billy. To make matters worse, gangsters have kidnapped Mr. Morrow… This second “Penrod” film benefits from the inclusion of both Billy and Bobby Mauch, who have a nice “mirror image” meeting. Most other scenes don’t take advantage of either their appeal, or the “twin” situation. It’s a cute kids movie.
