In A Doggone Christmas, internet dog sensation Just Jesse the Jack plays an amazing pup with telepathic abilities who has escaped a government facility and run straight into the loving arms of two young brothers. But the Washington brass won’t give up their secret weapon that easily, and with a no-nonsense special forces agent hot on the trail, the boys and their school buddies must hide the charming canine from helicopters and drones—and their mom and dad, who’ve forbidden them to have a pet. Can these kids, armed with only their wits, their bikes, and a strong bond with this special dog, save the day? We are delighted to present an exclusive clip.

“A Doggone Christmas” stars Dominique Swain (“Alpha Dog,” “Magik”), Rib Hillis (“General Hospital”), Lauren Parkinson (“Avengers Grimm”), Paul Logan (“Sniper: Special Ops”) and introduces “Just Jesse the Jack” Russell Terrier, as well as child stars Jolie Ledford, Walker Mintz, Jonathan Tysor, Jayden Hedden and Dilan Patton.

Just Jesse the Jack is a YouTube favorite with over 17 Million views on his own web channel. “A Doggone Christmas” will be his first movie and the start of a new franchise, with “A Doggone Hollywood” currently in post-production, and “A Doggone Mystery” currently in development, both set for release in 2017.
