Five irresistible dogs and a zany parrot live together under the protective roof of Miss Lilly's House of Pets. These scruffy but adorable dogs are the best of friends, a real team. Who needs money when you've got your friends ... and the security of Miss Lilly's mansion? But then a sudden mega-inheritance turns these pups into a pack of pampered Millionaire Dogs.

Originally produced in Germany by producer Dr. Michael Schoemann, the film was packaged in the United States by Doug Zwick of Pop Twist Entertainment (Los Angeles).

!!Tropes
* AntiHero: The motorcycle gang are all Type I due to the case that they like to watch underground dog fights, but when they find out [[spoiler: Sherman is trapped in there]], they immediately rescue [[spoiler: him]] from harm and were the ones to carry [[spoiler: Miss Lilly's coffin during her funeral]].
* CreepyTwins: The nephew and niece, Ronnie and Hannie.
* CoolOldLady: Miss Lilly
* TheDeterminator: JD's rescue of the other dogs when he rides a motorcycle across an ocean to save Bella.
* DirtyCoward: Ronnie
* FiveManBand
* FurryConfusion: The dogs and parrot are owned by people, yet we can see a goose as a doctor and also a motorcycle-riding gang consisting of a chimpanzee, a vulture, and a wildcat.
* GentleGiant: While mischievous at times, Sherman comes off as this.
* GratuitousSpanish: Emmo the parrot speaks this.
* GroinAttack: Sherman delivers one to Ronnie with a ball.
* HerrDoktor: Dr. R.R. Quack the goose.
* HugeGuyTinyGirl: Sherman and Velvet.
* InadequateInheritor: Ronnie and Hannie.
* {{Jerkass}}: Both of the twins and most of the dogs, except JD, when the money goes into their heads.
* KilledOffForReal: [[spoiler: Miss Lilly dies immediately when attempting to finish reading LittleRedRidingHood, and it's completely on-screen.]]
* LovableRogue: JD
* NeverSayDie: Instead of trying to kill the pets to claim their aunt's fortune, the twins tried to make sure the pets would stay out of her home for two whole days so they would invoke an old law that states that, if a pet who inherits something stays out of their home for forty-eight hours in a row, the inheritance would go to the benefactor's/benefactress' next of kin.
** Though it's also averted since the dogs say kill and dead a few times
* PassedOverInheritance: Miss Lily's nephew and niece.
* PetHeir: Miss Lily's pets. 
* TheSmartGuy: Chuffie.
* ToothyBird: Made very noticeable with Emmo.
