Plot Outline: Two kids secretly take in stray dogs at a vacant hotel.
Plot: Animals are strictly forbidden at Andi and her little brother Bruce's foster home. But for Friday, the adorable dog they secretly care for, they're ready to risk everything. They finally find him an ideal shelter, a huge abandoned hotel that Bruce transforms thanks to his engineering genius. In what has become an incredible paradise for dogs, Friday is soon joined by all kinds of furry friends, so many in fact that their barks alert the neighbors…and the local pound, who can't understand the disappearance of all the stray dogs. Andi and Bruce will have to call on all their friends and all their imagination to stop the hotel's secret from being discovered.
Movie Quotes: Andi: You know, I think we might be in a little over our heads.
Dave: It's four-six; we're out dogged.
Crazy Credits: We know about 2 Crazy Credits. One of them reads:
The credits scroll over a journey through the mine down a mine train/tram tracks.

Continuity: When Bruce first checks in Henry near the beginning of the movie, he writes Henry's name in green. Later when Bernie is reading from the check-in book, Henry's name is in red.
Trivia: There are 13 entries in the trivia list – like these:
- When Andi (Emma Roberts) is looking for a dress for the party, she tells her brother Bruce (Jake T. Austin) if he could create her a dress, “then you'd really be a wizard”. Jake plays a wizard in the Disney TV series "Wizards of Waverly Place" (2007).
- At the nearly end of the movie when the “twin dogs” appear, Andi tells the people that they're names are Sebastian and Viola, after characters in Shakespeare's Twelfth Night.
- The novel upon which this movie is based was first published in 1971.
