Filmen kaster med glimt i øyet et blikk på hundeutstillingens verden. Konkurransen er beintøff når Fido og eierne kjemper om de gjeveste båndene. Og hundeeiere er ikke som andre eiere
Selgeren Gerry Fleck (Eugene Levy), som bokstavelig talt er født med to venstreben, og kona Cookie (Catherine O’Hara) har meldt på Norwich terrieren Winky i konkurransen. Det rike og nevrotiske ekteparet Hamilton (Michael Hitchcock) og Meg (Parker Posey) Swan frykter at weimaraneren deres, Beatrice, kan ha blitt traumatisert av å ha sett dem ha sex.
Scott Donlan (John Michael Higgins) og partneren Stefan Vanderhoof (Michael McKean) har tatt med seg sin elskede Shi Tzu, Miss Agnes. Troféhustruen Sheri Ann Cabot (Jennifer Coolidge) og hennes nære venninne og hundetrener Christy Cummings (Jane Lynch) håper at Christys puddel, Rhapsody in White, skal gå av med seieren for tredje år på rad.

Unit publicist Corey Taft (John Michael Higgins), talent agent Morley Orfkin (Eugene Levy), and producer Whitney Taylor Brown (Jennifer Coolidge) all smell the sudden potential for a sleeper hit. As the hopeful Purim team careens toward the end of production and the upcoming Award season, tenuous relationships and brittle dreams play out in unexpected ways...

When folk icon Irving Steinbloom passed away, he left behind a legacy of music and a family of performers he has shepherded to folk stardom. To celebrate a life spent submerged in folk, Irving's loving son Jonathan has decided to put together a memorial concert featuring some of Steinbloom's best-loved musicians. There's Mitch and Mickey, who were the epitome of young love until their partnership was torn apart by heartbreak; classic troubadours The Folksmen, whose records were endlessly entertaining for anyone able to punch a hole in the center to play them; and The New Main Street Singers, the most meticulously color-coordinated neuftet ever to hit an amusement park. Now for one night only in New York City's Town Hall, these three groups will reunite and gather together to celebrate the music that almost got them famous... (Cover)
