When 16-year-old Andi and her younger brother, Bruce, find themselves in a foster home with a strict "no pets" policy, the siblings have to find a new home for their dog, Friday. The kids stumble into an abandoned hotel and begin transforming it into something truly magical: a home for their dog, as well as all the stray dogs in the neighbourhood! But the hotel soon arouses the suspicions of the police who want to know - who let the dogs in? Based on Lois Duncan's 1971 children's book, Hotel For Dogs, this live-action movie stars Emma Roberts, Jake T. Austin, Lisa Kudrow, Kevin Dillon, and Don Cheadle in a comedic adventure that shows how far love and imagination can take you.
