It's a Dog's Life
1955 · Movie · 88 min · ★ 4.3
This comedy tells the classic American tale of a terrier who rises from the dogfights of the Bowery to compete as a show dog on the Upper East Side of Manhattan. All along, he keeps looking for his mother--and for the father who left them both. In a tale told entirely by the canine star, Wildfire, we see how the world looks when It's a Dog's Life.
