Basic Premise

Corneil is a genius dog: not only can he read and write perfect English, but he is much smarter than most people. Since he's so smart, he knows that life doesn't get any better than being a pampered pet, and so he does anything he can to keep his owners from realizing his phenomenal skills. This plan begins to go awry when his owners hire the pinheaded Bernie Barges to "dog-sit", and Bernie learns about Corneil's secret. Though the two frequently bicker, they form an uneasy friendship, and Corneil finds himself using his brainy powers to bail Bernie out of various scrapes.

Most episodes are driven by Corneil's reluctance to let anyone know that he is intelligent and capable of speech. The only person who does know is dogsitter Bernie, whose uncle minds the apartment of Corneil's wealthy owners. Bernie found out about Corneil's speaking abilities by accident, and unfortunately he is somewhat lacking of intelligence and mostly devoid of morals. All this puts Corneil in an uncomfortable position - as Bernie often takes it upon himself to 'be the voice' of Corneil, capitalising on Corneil's reluctance to communicate and ignoring Corneil's requests.

Characters

Corneil: Corneil is a dog that can talk due to his high I.Q. of 250,^[1] and with his sense of extreme intelligence, he comes up with most of the plans that make the show a success. In the English version, he is voiced with a distinct Yorkshire accent, although (for obvious reasons) this is never referred to in the show.

Bernie: Bernie is Corneil's dogsitter and will always go along with what Corneil says due to his strong record of making mistakes that Corneil fixes before anyone has an actual chance to notice. Bernie often tries to blackmail Corneil to help him with a task that he does not enjoy, such as homework or chores, but these attempts always seem to fail.

John and Beth: John and Beth are Corneil's masters who leave Corneil with Bernie whenever they go out.

Uncle Rico: Uncle Rico is Bernie's Uncle and lives with him in the same apartment building as Corneil and his owners. He works as a janitor for the building.

Romeo: A jock and a classmate of Bernie's. Romeo plays the role of the cool, tough guy.

Martha: Another classmate of Bernie's. Martha is intellectual and often skeptical of Bernie's claims. Bernie seems to have a slight crush on her.
