It's one doggone lucky pooch, a sweet and savvy talking golden retriever, Bailey, who inherits a billion dollar fortune from his devoted owner, Constance Pennington. His shy guardian Ted, a renowned animal behaviorist and the only one who can speak "Doggish," becomes attracted to Marge, an environmental and animal activist. Marge works at the Animal Rights and Research Foundation (ARRF) and is the single mother of a 12-year-old girl named Sam. At the same time, Bailey leaps head-over-tail in puppy love with Sam's dog Tessa, a super smart border collie. The titular heads of ARRF, Dolores and Caspar Pennington, incensed that their aunt's fortune has gone to her beloved dog, plot to recoup the millions in order to fuel the outrageously profligate lifestyle they have supported by embezzling money from ARRF. It's one hilarious "faux paw" after another until Bailey suddenly disappears. Then only Sam, her friend Max, and the dogs themselves can solve the mystery in this delightful family comedy.
