Recounts the antics of big, lovable Clifford when he was a very small puppy.

Emily Elizabeth has just finished her best painting ever for the school art fair. Suddenly, by accident, Clifford runs through the paint and right across the painting!! Clifford befriends Bibi, a seeing-eye dog who recently moved into the building.

It's the first snowfall of the year and it seems like everyone in the apartment building has a set tradition for the occasion except Norville. Clifford can't keep up with super-athlete Flo, but he doesn't care, as long as he's having fun.

As he tries to help set up for a big Cinco de Mayo party, Clifford begins to doubt that he has any special skills to offer. It's a beautiful first day of spring AND the official opening day of the Courtyard Volleyball season!

Clifford and Emily Elizabeth have a great time playing with the "sock spiders" but Daffodil feels left out. It's another day at the dog run. As per usual, each pup brings a toy to share with the other dogs, but Jorge is reluctant to share.

The beginning of the new school year brings new neighbors for the Howards. The kittens, Flo and Zo, are staying with the Howards while their owner is away for the weekend.

When an older dog, Tricksie, moves into the apartment complex, Clifford and Jorge unsuccessfully try to get her to join in their dog games. Clifford misses Emily Elizabeth when she attends her first sleepover.
