Director Joe Camp recaptures the magic from his original "Benji" (1974) for this refreshingly retro, low-budget charmer about a boy who rescues a mongrel pup from his dad's harsh breeding policies and some bumbling dogcatchers. Nick Whitaker, Chris Kendrick, Christy Summerhays, Nate Bynum, Lincoln Hoppe, Randall Newsome, Duane Stephens.
