In the film the White Dog Kristy drives through the Los Angeles hills late at night when she hits a white German Shepherd dog. She decides to adopt the dog since the chances of the dog being claimed within certain time frame is slim before he is put to sleep. One day the dog disappears the dog has made his way into town and while sniffing about is disturbed by a road cleaning truck. At the wheel a black man smoking a cigar, the Shepherd goes into the vehicle through the passenger window. The driver struggles against the ferocious dog, as it attacks viciously against him. In another scene the dog attacks a black actress on the set of one of Julie's jobs. Her boyfriend pleads to give up the dog. So she visits a professional animal training center to help her dog with these cruel behavior attacks. She meets Keys a black animal trainer who soon realizes... "that dog is not an attack dog...it's a white dog!" which means that it has been trained to attack black people on sight. The film then follows the attempts of the altruistic animal trainer in his quest to re-condition the ferocious white dog.
This film was different from any that I have seen. Many would have given up on that dog and put him down due to the attacks; Julie on the other hand had a soft spot for the "white dog" and tried to cure him. The director used a dog to illustrate hatred on black people through a white dog which is ironic. It was a racy film and interesting to see how the plots where set up.
