The Shaggy D.A. (1976)

In the enchanting sequel to the 1959 movie, the boy who once transformed into a dog due to an ancient, possibly cursed ring, is now all grown up. Wilby Daniels, a distinguished lawyer, finds himself entwined in the complexities of his family life and a promising political career. When his home is burgled and his pleas for help are casually dismissed by the police, Daniels decides to take matters into his own hands. Fueled by a sense of justice, he aspires to become the District Attorney, challenging the incumbent D.A., John Slade, who he believes is not only incompetent but also corrupt. However, his campaign takes an unforeseen twist when he suddenly begins to morph into an English sheepdog, a mystifying echo of his childhood transformations. The enigmatic ring, now a stolen artifact, seems to have reignited its magical curse when its ancient inscription is read aloud, triggering Daniels' shocking metamorphosis. Struggling to maintain his secret, Daniels embarks on a dual quest – to uncover the mysterious cause of his canine condition while evading the relentless local dog catcher. As he battles the bizarre and the bureaucratic simultaneously, Daniels' journey in "The Shaggy D.A." becomes a captivating tale of resilience and determination, wrapped in a cloak of enchantment and whimsy.
