The movie follows Lou, a beagle puppy who accidentally joins an elite canine intelligence agency (the "Dogs"). His mission: protect the Brody family’s newborn baby from the evil plans of Mr. Tinkles, a genius cat who wants to destroy the dog’s reputation and make cats the dominant species. With voice talent from Tobey Maguire (Lou), Alec Baldwin (Butch), and Sean Hayes (Mr. Tinkles), the film was a technical marvel for its time, blending animatronics and early CGI.

Led by the power-hungry Persian cat Mr. Tinkles (voiced by Sean Hayes), the cats plot to steal the formula and reverse its effects, making everyone allergic to dogs instead.

The film was notable for its time, using a mix of live animal actors, animatronic puppets, and computer-generated imagery (CGI) to make the animals appear to talk and perform stunts.

Lou , an inexperienced Beagle puppy adopted by the Brody family, is drafted into the dog secret service to protect the vaccine.
