Plot:
Owen Baker is a 12-year-old loner who has been
working as the neighborhood dog-walker so he can earn the
privilege of getting a dog of his own. His hard work pays off
when his parents, Mr. and Mrs. Baker, let Owen adopt a scruffy
mutt he names Hubble. Both boy and dog get more than they
bargained for when Owen wakes up one morning to discover he can
understand every word Hubble says-- including the ominous phrase:
"Take me to your leaders." Owen learns that dogs came
to Earth thousands of years ago to colonize and dominate the
planet. Hubble (who is really named Canid 3942) has been sent by
the powerful Greater Dane on a mission from the Dog Star Sirius
to make sure dogs have fulfilled this destiny. Despite the best
efforts of Owen's rag-tag group of neighborhood dogs to convince
him otherwise, Hubble soon discovers the awful truth about Earth
dogs: "You're all pets!" Now Owen (a boy who never had
a friend) and Hubble (a dog who never needed one) must work
together to prepare the neighborhood dogs for a visit from The
Greater Dane--or all dogs will be removed from the planet! The
fate of Earth dogs hangs in the balance, and it's up to Owen,
Hubble, and their canine companions to save man's best friend.
Rating
5 out of
10
Rated
for
some mild crude humor.
Notes:
It got a "5" because of the cast and the boxer
dog(Wilson).I just like it when he says "playa".
Bottom Line: RENT!
