DOGS! Waiting to Be Loved!

The Premise

DOGS! is a family-friendly live action film in the tradition of Beverly Hills Chihuahua, where the dogs are the stars. Featuring original songs by Broadway composer Norman Thalheimer and Grammy-winning songwriter/ producer Charlie Midnight, DOGS! offers an uplifting story for the entire family.


Set in a rescue shelter, the movie is told from the dogs’ point of view. The film opens as they are getting ready for their “big audition” – Adoption Day when folks tour the facility to pick out a pet. The dogs have mixed emotions about the day. Will they be lucky, chosen to live in a real home and be loved, or will they end up as the next dog to be “put down” merely because no one cares?

Meet the Characters...

ANGEL The Golden Retriever...

ANGEL The Golden Retriever...

ANGEL The Golden Retriever...

is a loving service dog to paraplegic vet Mark. But due to a tragic misunderstanding, they’ve become separated. Now depressed and confused; Angel is the only dog in the shelter who doesn’t want to be adopted, he just wants to go home!  

PENNY The Pit Bull Terrier

ANGEL The Golden Retriever...

ANGEL The Golden Retriever...

Many Pit Bull Terriers are abused for dog-fighting, and PENNY is such a dog. Dumped on a street corner bleeding, Penny wakes up in the shelter, relieved to have clean water, food, and her wounds stitched – and no one pushing her into a ring.  

REX the German Shepherd...

ANGEL The Golden Retriever...

REX the German Shepherd...

 terribly misses his cop pals and his search and rescue missions as a K-9. He wants to go back to work, not “sit in a yard like a useless piece of junk,” so he ran away before he could be forced to retire. 

FIFI the French Poodle

CHURCHILL the English Bulldog...

REX the German Shepherd...

 Once a stunning, pampered French Poodle, FIFI is not so pretty anymore. Gray from age and blind from cataracts, Fifi fears she will never be loved again. Is everyone too blind to see her beautiful heart? 

CHURCHILL the English Bulldog...

CHURCHILL the English Bulldog...

CHURCHILL the English Bulldog...

 gruff yet kind, like everyone’s favorite coach, he keeps the other dogs in line. He considers the shelter his “forever” home and has no intention of leaving. “They’d be lost without me,” he insists, and he’s probably right!  

MITZI the Maltese

CHURCHILL the English Bulldog...

CHURCHILL the English Bulldog...

 Bought from an unethical pet store,  Mitzi contracted heart-worm, a condition her former owner said was “too expensive to treat.” So he dumped the scared little puppy at the shelter.  

HEINZ the Mutt...

MARK The Disabled Veteran

VIVIAN the Volunteer...

skateboards into our hearts. Found half-dead from starvation in an alley, covered in fleas, Heinz can’t remember the last time someone pet him.  

VIVIAN the Volunteer...

MARK The Disabled Veteran

VIVIAN the Volunteer...

 is the only human who plays a significant role in the film because she is the one who helps the dogs through the shelter system to find their “forever home.” Vivian is a single woman in her late 20s-early 30s who appreciates dogs, as she recognizes that dogs give humans unconditional love. 

Vivian represents the dedicated volunteers everywhere who donate their time and energy to save every dog.

MARK The Disabled Veteran

MARK The Disabled Veteran

MARK The Disabled Veteran
