DOG’S LAND

DOG’S LAND
By Alex Olguin

GENRE: Comedy, Animation
LOGLINE:

In a neighborhood where cats push dogs out of their homes, an idealistic dog creates Dog's Land, a garbage-built sanctuary for dogs like him. But when a memory-altering invention is twisted into a plan to turn dogs into mind-controlled servants, he must face the cat who started it all.

SYNOPSIS:

Spot is a happy-go-lucky dog who once lived a perfect life inside his home, until an accident involving Luna, an adopted cat hiding a deep-seated trauma, gets him permanently kicked out by their oblivious owner, Aubrey.

After a year of failed attempts to get back inside, Spot finally gives up. If he isn’t wanted in the house, he decides to stop asking for permission to belong. Driven by his longing for home and identity, Spot creates Dog’s Land, a wild, garbage-built playground where dogs can be dogs freely, without rules and without asking.

As Dog’s Land grows into a secret haven for dogs, a darker plan unfolds on the other side of the fence. Led by Poppy, a diva-like and manipulative cat, a group of felines plots to erase dogs’ memory and reeducate them as slaves using a memory-altering device invented by Aubrey herself to help people remember things. At Poppy’s side stands Luna, torn between loyalty, fear, and unresolved pain, while Napoleon, an unhinged hamster manipulates Poppy pushing the plan to fulfill his personal agenda to control anyone bigger than him, even humans.

When Spot and Luna are forced into direct confrontation, their personal trauma becomes inseparable from the fate of their homes, forcing them to stop Napoleon and save the only thing that connects them, Aubrey.

Unique concept, Alex Olguin! I think your logline could be tightened up some, and I suggest adding Spot’s goal. Something like: In a neighborhood where cats and dogs clash over privilege, a dog driven from his home creates a place where dogs can live free. When the cat who took his home plots to erase dogs forever, he ____________ (his goal and the stakes).
