Me'n Gus
An icon in the world of dogs tanks his life in a competition when he and his pure bred German Shepherd fall. Sudden termination, arrest, public scorn, and family abandonment is hero’s force majeure, but making his comeback with a sick shelter mutt and receiving redemption from dog kind… that’s the true Christmas miracle.

Amazon, have you called my famous canine philanthropist friends yet? Of course I've got the rights - Sia's in, Cher texted today. Who's getting Pamela Anderson at PETA? Gus called, he sez Kathy Bates agrees to prosecute the Animal Gobblers. All we need now is a billion dollars. Dear Holy Producer high above, Where's the beef? Holy Shit! The Cows want tickets; we're gonna need a bigger theater. The Chickens and Cats are organising a protest! Jesus take the wheel!
Date night, general audience, dog-loving bromance humor and an education in disguise for the masses is this warm holiday story. Inspired by Brian Bare and his good boy, Gus... and Netflix & Amazon documentary, Pet Fooled.
