After discovering that the other ponies have a pet play-date each week, Rainbow Dash decides that she should have a pet. Fluttershy offers her a variety of choices. Rainbow wants something that emulates her - she wants it to be a very fast flying, agile, cool, clever creature.
So they go through a variety of tests to see which animal meets her criteria. The last one is a race through a canyon.
When Rainbow is caught in an avalanche, all of the other animals are well ahead. She's trapped, with one of her wings pinned under a boulder. Eventually, the pet she had ruled out, a tortoise, arrives, and helps her get out. They cross the finish line together, and she names the tortoise Tank.
It's a fun episode. There are plenty of good sound effects, lots of interesting things to animate. But there isn't as much with the other main characters. This can be a little disappointing, since it's so fun to see Applejack throwing a stick for her dog, or Gummy the alligator latching onto Pinkie Pie in different locations.
