What Is Rufus About?
The premise of Rufus without spoilers.
After moving to a new school, Manny struggles to make friends. He finds a magical collar and, on a whim, puts it on his dog, Rufus. Suddenly, Rufus transforms into a boy, leading Manny to enroll him in school. Rufus's goofy, dog-like behaviors—chasing squirrels, eating with his hands, and even catching a soccer ball with his mouth—unexpectedly make him the most popular kid. Manny grapples with jealousy but ultimately learns the importance of a dog's unwavering loyalty.
