K-9

James Belushi stars as an unorthodox narcotics cop who teams with an independently minded police dog in the action-comedy K-9.Headstrong Thomas Dooley (Belushi) is one step away from nailing a prominent socialite in a $50 million drug bust. He's branded as too crazy to partner with and no one will work with him except Jerry Lee, a superbly trained German shepherd police dog with the best nose in the drug-busting business. The unconventional pairing pleases neither partner but after a series of shootouts, stakeouts, brawls and romantic misadventures, they develop a grudging respect for each other. It's a heartwarming, fast-footed adventure about an unlikely and unbeatable police team that will have you rooting for man's best friend.
