Trivia:
At the dinner party given by the gangster, there is a butler walking across a room behind a doorway. The butler was Michael J.R. Gill who was working with the catering staff hired for the film. After the filming, he actually served the food used in the scene to the cast and crew. Gill was not an actor, but was actually a real English butler and for seven years was butler to British actor Laurence Harvey, prior to his death. more
Goofs:
Continuity: During the movie Dooley is playing a game when he is on stakeout. In the background you can see the Mustang emblem on the steering wheel. Later in the stolen police car when he is playing a game while tailing Lyman, the Mustang emblem is in the background again. more
Quotes:
Dooley: Alright, let's get one thing straight: The woman is mine! Now we're both members of the animal kingdom. You know that and I know that. And we both know that this thing is really primal. So if you think you're such a badass you just try that one more time and you're gonna end up in a pet cemetary! You remember the movie Old Yeller? You remember when they shot him in the end? I didn't cry! Now come on! more

Good rainy day movie, 2 May 2007
7/10
Author: MacgyverColumbo from United States

If your sitting around have nothing to do go to watch a movie well this is a pretty good one to watch. This is my second favorite James Bulushi movie after Real men. I love the way the movie starts with them shooting up Bulushi's car they always seem to be shooting up his cars in these k9 movies. It's decent action movie with some funny moments. Hey some big dogs humping my Aretha,Oh! I feel good. Belushi's girl friend in this movie is extremely hot I give her a 10. The dogs pretty good in the movie even though I don't really like that type of dog. All around it's a good movie. Bulushi never ends up beating that weird little game he's always playing.
