DreamWorks Animation to Develop FLAWED DOGS

DreamWorks Animation is going to adapt the childrens book Flawed Dogs: The Year-End Leftovers at the Piddleton 'Last Chance' Dog Pound into a CGI animated feature film simply called Flawed Dogs. The book comes from cartoonist/writer Berkely Breathed, and is filled with illustrations that tells the tale of canine "undesirables," promoting real-life adoption for families looking for new pets.

Story centers around a dachshund who must reclaim his place in the family after being wrongly exiled by a jealous show dog. 

Breathed will also be an executive producer on the film project, and is best know fro creating the comic strip Bloom County. He also wrote the book Mars Needs Moms which was recnetly adapted into a film over at Sisney. Breathed had this to say in a statement,

All my stories are sparked by a nugget of truth hiding in plain sight. In this case, it's that all animals dream… but only dogs dream of us.

Here's the full description of the book:

Bipsie had been bought to replace The dearly departed Sweetface A beauty in blues With some parts chartreuse She clashed with the whole bloody place.
