Summary of The Shaggy D.A.
In this sequel to Disney's wildly successful THE SHAGGY DOG, Wilby Daniels (Dean Jones) has eliminated the pesky problem of periodically turning into a wooly sheepdog, thanks to the magic Borgia ring. Now, he's a successful lawyer, and he and his family are looking forward to a challenging election in which he's running for District Attorney. However, everything goes wrong when thieves steal the ring and Wilby once again changes back and forth from human to dog -- at the most inopportune times! Between keeping the transformations a secret, keeping up his election campaign, trying to secure the ring, and avoiding the dogcatcher, Wilby has his hands full!
