Marmaduke

Marmaduke is a Great Dane living in Urban Kansas with a cat named Carlos. His owner Phil (Lee Pace) works for Bark Organic dog food, and is very strict (in Marmaduke's eyes). One day Carlos tells him that he overheard Phil, and that they have been transfered to Orange County. They move into their new house where they meet Phil's boss, Don Twombly. Don's goal is to get Bark Organic in every Petco in the country. They meet at the dog park where Marmaduke meets a beautiful dog name Jezebel (Fergie), whose boyfriend is Bosco, a controlling and violent dog with his two minions Thunder and Lighting. Bosco intimidates Marmaduke, who does not want to fight. He then meets Mazie (Emma Stone) who develops a crush on Marmaduke. He also meets Guiseppe, a Chinese Crested dog who is afraid of everything, and Raison.They get together at night and crash a party for pedigrees only, and are scared away by Bosco. Marmaduke then asks Mazie to help him get a girl, whom she presumes is herself, but is actually Jezebel. Marmaduke then has Carlos pretend to be lost in the dog park, and "fights" him. He then enters a surfing contest Phil put together for dogs, and beats Bosco, who is a surfing champion. They get in a dog fight, which appalls the Petco executives.He then takes Jezebel on Mazie's dream date, which the latter watches from afar. While the family is on Don's boat, Marmaduke throws a party, with most residents of the dog park coming, save Mazie, Guisseppe, and Raisin. Bosco crashes the party and discovers it was Carlos at the dog park. He then exposes Marmaduke, who loses his pedigree friends. He is left with no friends and a destroyed house. When Phil discovers the house in a wreck, he locks Marmaduke outside for the night. Marmaduke runs away, and leaves Mazie a toy that she gave him earlier in the movie. Mazie goes to Marmaduke's house, and Carlos tells her Marmaduke never returned. She then goes looking for him. In the morning the family discover him missing, and search for him too. Marmaduke in the meantime has met Chupadogra, a English Mastiff who is feared throughout Orange County for presumably killing his owner. In reality, he ran away to lead the pack but they abandoned him. He has spent the time alone in the woods with nothing but a blanket and his old water bowl,which reads "Buster".Buster/Chupadogra tells Marmaduke to return to his family, and then distracts a dog catcher. Marmaduke leaves, but gets lost. Mazie and the family find him at the same time, but Mazie falls into the sewers after the street below her collapses. Marmaduke jumps in after her and Phil tries to retrieve him, but the fire department tries instead. The fireman saves Mazie, but loses Marmaduke in the raging water. By this time Phil has been fired for missing the meeting for the last chance with Petco. Phil then goes to the dam that the sewers lead to, and finds Marmaduke in the raging waters. He jumps in after him, and begs Marmaduke to let go of the stick he's holding onto, and let the waters carry him to Phil. He reluctantly does, and is saved. Several kids got that on video, and put it on Youtube. Since it had almost seven-hundred thousand hits,he is re-hired. Phil then thinks about moving back to Kansas, but the entire family disagrees. He and Don are thinking of ideas for commercials, having gotten Petco. They ask each other about if the dogs could talk to each other, and even dance. It shows Marmaduke, Jezebel, Mazie, Guisseppe, Raisin, and Buster, among others, dancing and singing What I Like About You, which turns out to be the commercial. In the end, Marmaduke and Mazie are dating, Marmaduke and Jezebel are friends, Buster has presumably gotten a family, and all is well.
