Muttley Films is thrilled to announce that we were selected the winner at the Good Dog International Film Festival 2022.

I appreciate the recognition of Feature Film Screenplay (COOP).
It's great to see festivals/competitions with specific storyline themes, such as stories involving animals. Stories involving disabilities. Stories involving characters who overcome tremendous odds against them, etc..
Therefore, I highly recommend this competition for all screenwriters who are willing to share their (tails), involving humankind's best friend.
I look forward to submitting additional material in the future, including a potential follow-up story to Coop.

I was honored that my film "For the Love of a Dog" was selected as a finalist for this festival and exchanged a few messages with Any Slater, the festival director.
Unfortunately the festival did not take place as planned because of the pandemic. Otherwise I would definitely have attended.
