Welcome to the town of Barksdale, where the canine residents
strive for perfection. Every shopkeeper claims to be the "best
groomer" or sell the "best biscuits. " And at Barksdale Academy,
the pressure is on every year for one pup to be named Best in
Show.

Nova, Duke, Harley, and Peanut have never won Best in Show... which
is okay with them! But they have to work together to pass their
Agility Exam, because either the whole pack passes or the whole
pack fails.

Nova has convinced her pals to train, but on her practice course,
Duke is afraid to climb the high ramp, Harley keeps chasing squirrels,
and Peanut can't make it through the hoops. Nova's not doing
much bettershe's so excited she keeps knocking the whole course
over!

Will the pups make the grade, or are they doomed to be Underdogs
forever?
