When Red Dog (Koko) first arrives in the dusty Western Australian mining town of Dampier in 1971, he has no master and jumps into any lap or any car that wants him. But when American John (Josh Lucas) comes to town to work as the driver of a workers' bus, Red Dog befriends him.
The locals, like publican Jack (Noah Taylor) and hardman Peeto (John Batchelor) love him, except for the caravan park manger and his cat. John and newcomer Nancy (Rachael Taylor) become a couple and Red Dog becomes their much loved pet. So when John fails to come home one day, Red Dog waits for him ... and waits ... and waits. Despondent, he finally sets off to track John down on an epic journey.
A quirky and endearing tale about man's best friend, Red Dog is the true story of a dog that befriends a whole mining community until he chooses his own master.
