"You just have to be honest," Ann tells young Charlie, "and have faith in the truth." But Charlie's not so sure the truth won't just get all twisted up by the attorneys and used in court against Drum, his loyal dog and best friend ever, in this spirited film that is based on a true story. Still, Drum's accusers, including Charlie's own Uncle Lon, are getting their day in court, and they say Drum is a bloodthirsty monster who is killing their sheep, one at a time. Charlie knows they're barking up the wrong tree about Drum, an amazing dog who somehow seems to know he must do his darnedest to fill the void left when Charlie's mom died years earlier. But how can Charlie prove any of that? Maybe Ann was right. His only hope is faith in the truth - and a good attorney. (official distributor synopsis)
