Night in the mining town of Dampier, Western Australia, the most loved and infamous dog of the entire Pilbara region, Red Dog, lies in the backroom of the town’s only pub, dying. Slowly through the night, people gather in the pub and they swap stories of Red Dog’s life, his rise to fame, his glories and tragedies.
Red Dog had first hitched a ride into Dampier some ten years earlier with publican Jack and wife Maureen (Noah Taylor and Loene Carmen). He also endeared himself to (almost) everyone who crossed his path. However, it was not until Red Dog came across John (Josh Lucas) that he settled down. But tragically, John’s life was cut short. Red Dog could not accept that John was gone and set out to find him.
Back at the pub, Red Dog, unnoticed, weakly wanders off into the night. As his friends in the pub realize that he’s gone, they stream out into the dawn calling him to come back, to come home. But Red Dog is already heading towards a final journey, into legend.
