GUS, the guide dog

Synopsis

To make his dream of becoming a guide dog come true, Gus - an optimistic, mixed-breed pup with no pedigree who lives in a vacant lot - throws himself into gruelling training and seemingly impossible challenges, all while trying to earn the trust of those who doubt him simply because he’s a stray.

Five puppies peek out from under a wooden bleacher, with children’s sneakers dangling above. A girl in denim overalls walks a small dog in a harness towards a red-brick building with a guide dog statue at its entrance. A girl in a yellow striped T-shirt strokes a big-eared puppy walking along the top of a wall. A puppy’s reflection in a glass pane turns into a golden dog wearing a guide dog harness. A puppy, seen from behind, gazes at a wall covered in framed portraits of guide dogs with their people, lit by a beam of light. A puppy in a harness runs pulling a mop bucket while a golden puppy sits and watches. An adult dog and a puppy walk across a vacant lot at sunset. A puppy weaves between orange cones in a training gym. Close-up of a big-eared puppy looking up with shining eyes. A golden dog hugs a puppy, who closes its eyes, beside a window glowing with evening light.
