A colorful array of characters compete at a national dog show.

The tension is palpable, the excitement is mounting, and the heady scent of competition is in the air in Christopher Guest’s (This is Spinal Tap, Waiting for Guffman) hilarious mockumentary. Follow the story of five dogs whose owners are determined to win the coveted "best in show" ribbon at the Mayflower Kennel Club Dog Show, even as their various eccentricities threaten to bring their ambitions to heel.
