Betina is afraid of everything and everyone, especially the Black Garbage Can, a notoriously dangerous dog. But when she rescues him from the thorn bush in front of the house, they become friends.

Together with the Black Garbage Can and the partridge Tek-tek, she lives in the hunting district of Dr. Mlinarič Godrnjavs, who is a thorn in his side because of the wild girl.
