The Dog Who Saved Christmas Page #2

with this mouse problem

we're having.

- Mouse:
Oh, no.

- That's not good.

Yeah, but Mom, we want a dog

for Christmas.

Yeah, a big fluffy dog

with long blond hair and floppy ears.

- Come on, Mom.

- Come on, Mom.

Okay, we will discuss this later.

Come on, you're gonna miss the bus.

Let's go, let's go.

- Say goodbye to your father.

- Bye, Daddy.

Have a good day, bro.

I'll help you get your jacket, okay?

I'll be right out.

Promise me

you will not buy a dog

before we've had a chance

to talk about it again.

I promise.

Thank you.

(dings bell)

- How are you doing?

- Hey.

- How are you doing?

- Good. Very good.

I'm George Bannister

and I think I'm ready to adopt.

Well, I'm Benny.

Nice to meet you, George.

(laughs)

You want to adopt a dog?

We are in the market

for a watchdog.

A watchdog.

Well, today we're running a special.

It's Christmas.

Why not be special?

You adopt one dog...

you get another one for free.

Oh, that's okay.

I think one dog's plenty, you know.

We're good.

It's a free dog.

Yeah, if I ever brought home

two dogs,

the wife would put me

in the pound.

(laughs)

We can use another dog

around here.

I'll tell you what I'll do...

how about I throw in

some doggy biscuits,

a rubber ball and a doggy bone?

Oh, that'd be great.

Okay, well, sign right in

and I'll bring you right around.

Yeah, we got one.

Yeah, get it ready.

On, level one.

You know, some people think

those are cookies and eat them.

They're doggy biscuits.

Come on.

That's...

that's something else.

(dogs barking,

gate buzzes)

Come on in.

Look, there's somebody

who can take me home,

if I could only bark

to get his attention.

Zeus, you're saying

you can't even bark?

If you can't bark,

you ain't got a chance.

The pound.

(laughs)

Isn't it a little excessive,

with the bars?

Well, it has to be, man.

We've got some of the most

highly-profiled dogs

right behind these bars.

I mean, they're mentally challenged

as far as who to bite.

So I separate them

from the family dogs, from the good dogs.

Hey there.

Buck up, boys.

One of us is going home for the holidays.

Oh, I hope it's me.

Please, kind sir,

please take me,

I beg of you.

There's all types of dogs

in here.

You gotta know what you're doing

when you're at the pound, man.

Well, I'm looking for a family dog

and, you know, one that's

nice but tough.

Tough?

Well, I think I've got

just the dog for you.

Yeah, we call this one the Bronx.

What do you know about the Bronx?

From what I know, it's tough.

Tough like me, tough.

Well, this one...

his mother was a boxer

and his daddy was a pit bull.

How they got together and made a dog...
