Overview: A devoted Bichon pup helps his teenage owner and her uncle unleash their true potential in a wild quest for personal identity that romps through the worlds of dancing dogs and holistic doggie healing

Doggie Boogie dances into the hearts of its audience by fusing the wackiness of Best in Show with the thrills of Flashdance and the comic-book villainy of 101 Dalmatians. This family film answers the question, “Why does my dog look at me that way?”

Cassie’s teenage dreams of becoming a Vet are crushed by her mother, who has become a slave to the world of personal injury law and is forcing Cassie to follow in the family legacy. Peter Wolfe, her dog-dancing Uncle, dreams of winning a national dog dance title but is blocked by his guilt over a tragic dog dancing accident.

Gertrude Spinner, a ten-time dog dance champion and keeper of the legendary Dog Dance Bible, will do anything to stop them. But supported by a colorful cast of dog dancers, holistic healers and enchanting dogs, Pijo uses the lessons of Barkananda (‘healing bliss’) to provide Cassie and Peter with a fresh start as they dance through life’s twists and turns.
