Dash, Strong Dogs, and the Preacher-Man

In the 1870s, Copperton, a town divided by racism and dominated by the misconception that God appointed the white man the superior race, receives a special gift in the form Dash, a blue-eyed Aussie puppy born under Sirius, the Dog Star.
Appointed by God, Dash, with his friends Strong Dogs and Ernest Fletcher, form a trio destined to unite Copperton under a banner of peace and love - even in the face of evil and hate - and to spread this message to the world.
