A ship anchors at the South Pole and the skipper goes ashore and leaves the ship's mascot, a St. Bernard dog, to stand watch and guard the ship. Chilly Willy sees the ship and tries to get warm by its stove. The watchdog attempts to get rid of him, but Chilly manages to get the dog intoxicated from its own cask. The captain returns to find Chilly saving the ship from sinking, while the dog is found sleeping. Chilly is made mascot and the dog is tossed in the ship's jail.
