Fran Garrison's all in a tizzy because her prize Dachshund, Danke, is having pups, and she has hopes of one of the pups becoming a champion. But at the vet's, her husband Mark is talked into letting Danke wet nurse a Great Dane pup that's been abandoned by his mother. And Mark wants to keep the Great Dane. But Brutus has this problem: he thinks he's a dachshund and he's too big to be a lapdog. But when Fran ridicules Brutus one too many times, Jim's got a plan to prove to everyone (and Fran) that a great Dane can be far more than just an ugly dachshund. Written by Kathy Li
Despite being an old movie, this is very cute and likable. For its time, it has good production value. It is a tad predictable at times, but still adorable and fun to watch. I would recommend this movie to anyone who wants to watch a funny and cute story, while seeing some adorable puppies along the way. The acting is very good as well and doesn't seem as staged as it is in some other films.
