Corona, CA (July 1st, 2016): James Remar, Lea Thompson, Sherry Stringfield, Christina Moore and Allison Paige star in The Dog Lover – a dramatic thriller about a passionate animal rights activist who goes undercover at a dog-breeding facility, where the owner is suspected of inhumane treatment of animals.
Based on headlines with echoes of today’s extreme campaigns by a variety of humane groups across the United States, and the subsequent push-back by animal lovers and breeders, The Dog Lover is about a passionate belief that goes wrong. It’s not just the animals that can suffer, but their human guardians as well.
James Remar and Lea Thompson play the dog breeders, Daniel and Liz Holloway. Allison Paige plays Sara Gold, the animal rights activist. Christina Moore plays the head of the national humane organization and Sherry Stringfield plays Jackie McConnell, the town’s Animal Control Officer.
Directed by Alex Ranarivelo, the film was shot on location in Petaluma, Northern California and has a running time of 101 minutes.
On Demand. July 8 – DVD Release in Wal-Mart – July 12
