The story starts in 1939 New Orleans, Where a Dachshund named Itchy Itchiford searches a Dog Pound's cells for a dog by the name of Charlie (A German Shepherd mix). The Dogs (along with a few others Itchy freed) escape the pound by stealing the Dogcatcher Van, and smashing it through the pound gate. minutes later, as the escaped dogs head to their homes, Charlie and Itchy head for their hideout in the Louisiana swamps, which is a rusted Riverboat Casino, (Where the main event every day is the Cat Races.) currently run by Charlie's business partner, Carface Carruthers. Upon Charlie and Itchy's return, the patrons celebrate Charlie's return. (Can't Keep a Good Dog Down) Killer informs his boss, Carface of Charlie's return, and Carface, not wanting to share the profits with Charlie, tries to poison him with hemlock berries, but realized too late that he gave Charlie wild blueberries, but after giving Charlie a silver pocket watch, with no witnesses, Carface And his hench-dogs stuff Charlie in a trash bin and tosses it in the murky swamp water, where it sinks as Charlie drowns. Itchy, who came too late, runs for his life to hide from Carface, all the way to the Mardi Gras. During a parade, He imagines that the parade floats look like Charlie. Itchy, after crying loud runs for home.

Charlie wakes up and finds himself in heaven, where he encounters an ethereal and beautiful pink Whippet, Annabelle. Annabelle shows Charlie about Heaven and how much it can offer doing just about anything in Heaven, like eating whatever you want, turning into any dog breed you want, and to produce whatever your mind wants. Charlie enjoys this place, but, goes into despair, that he didn't get a chance to say goodbye to Itchy or his friends when he got murdered. Annabelle, then shows Charlie his life clock made of gold, which stopped, which is said to restore His life but will never return to Heaven, if activated. after a few distractions, Charlie hides His life clock in a cloud. (Let Me be Surprised) Charlie gives His silver watch to Annabelle, and Activates His life watch while dancing a tango with Annabelle and holding on to her, pulling the both of them to earth. After returning, Charlie and Annabelle get out of the swamp, accidentally startling a Moggy Cat, who was looking for His mate. Charlie promises the cat that he won't hurt him. Charlie then introduces himself, and the cat introduces himself as Tabasco, while Annabelle tries to keep herself from chasing Tabasco.

Reuniting with Itchy at His junkyard home, Charlie introduces Annabelle and Tabasco to Itchy. Tabasco, after a heated conversation, tells the dogs that he's spent over a week trying to break Praline, a Burmese Cat out of the casino. Charlie then tells Itchy His plan to get back at Carface, and he suggests making a plan to infiltrate Carface's Riverboat Casino to liberate the Race-Cats, including Praline. Before going, Annabelle berates Charlie for not only using the life watch to return to life, but, also for dragging her here too. Inside the vents, Charlie, along with Itchy, Annabelle, and Tabasco traverse the vents and locate the cages where the Race Cats are, including Praline. Tabasco frees the race-cats as everyone else comes across another room, once inside said room, they see Carface with a young girl talking to one of the race cats, saying that #62 has a flu, #78 has a broken bone, and that #18 is about to have kittens, making Charlie realize that the girl can talk to animals and that Carface is using this information to rig the games in His favor. Carface then tells his henchmen to not feed #18 anymore, and to drown the kittens in the marsh when they’re born. Charlie tells Itchy to assist Tabasco to exit with the race-cats as Charlie with the intent of getting back at Carface, frees the girl, who introduces herself as Anne-Marie as they race back to the junkyard, with the promise of finding her a home.

Later that night, after the rest of the race-cats rest in the junkyard cars, Praline stays in Itchy’s shed to give birth to four kittens, as Tabasco keeps watch to keep them safe. Soon, Anne-Marie at Itchy's urging, suggests going to an Orphanage, where someone might adopt her. Charlie, not wanting to lose His meal ticket, dissuades her saying that most orphanages don't have a kind environment, and if people learn that Anne-Marie can talk to animals, People would exploit her, treating her as a freak. As Anne-Marie was asleep, Charlie talks to Itchy about a plot to open Their own Casino and Housing, using the latter to keep Anne-Marie from getting suspicious. Praline thanks Itchy for the giving them a place to stay, but won't acknowledge Charlie, since German Shepherd is a dog breed that chases cats. While asleep next to Annabelle, Charlie has a horrifying dream, involving Carface putting Charlie through many deaths, and Charlie wakes up in a cold sweat.

The next morning, as everyone else searches for dropped money in the streets, Charlie steals only quarters from the town fountains, without being seen. Soon, with a total of slightly over $500 in change, Charlie hopes to use it to bet on the winning horse, after Anne-Marie is told by the other horses that Chawhee will win because it's His birthday today. knowing that underage gambling isn't allowed, Charlie puts on a trench coat with a long hat, a beard made of white yarn, Sunglasses and on a wheelchair, calling himself old man Barkin. seconds later, Anne Marie encounters a Man named Harold, who offer to help Charlie to the Betting Window. Charlie silently gives $500 to Harold to bet on Chawhee, which Harold has doubts, but with His help, Charlie bets the money seconds before the race began, and in the race, Chawhee crosses first, which won Charlie $25,000, causes him to faint from the excitement. Itchy, feeling that Harold should be rewarded, gave a confused Harold a cut of the prize money, $12,000.

In a montage, as Charlie continues winning money, in sports-betting, he uses some of the money to buy clothes for Anne-Marie, some doghouses for His friends, and a place to call home along with a casino of His own. Anne-Marie decides to leave since Charlie used the money to help His friends and no one else, but Charlie manages to convince Anne-Marie that They will, soon. Back at Carface's Casino, Which is suffering with a lack of customers, Killer tells His boss that Charlie is still alive, after Carface's Accountant, a Violet Whippet named Mauve, saw Charlie's pawprints in the vents, and reported that the Race Cats are still missing. Carface in a rage, attempts to kill off Killer by Piranha, but Killer, in a desperate attempt to save His own life, says he has a ray gun.

Then, Later, Charlie, Itchy, and Anne-Marie along with the cats, visit a dilapidated church to give food (Fully Cooked Salmon, Fried Eggs, Bread Bits, Blueberries, and Strawberries) to Charlie's first female friend, Flo, a Rough Collie, her newlywed husband, an under-confident Welsh Corgi named Delta, and a group of puppies they adopted. In the past, Charlie wanted to marry Flo, but turned him down, leaving Charlie broken-hearted, and the reason Charlie went down a road to avarice. Charlie introduces Flo's family to Tabasco, as Praline asks Flo if they can stay at the church. Flo accepted as Delta does the same. (What's Mine is Yours) afterward, Anne-Marie rests up in the top floor of the church, as Praline tends to her kittens downstairs.

That night, Charlie has another horrifying nightmare, this time, involving his past. After waking up, he sees Annabelle watch over Anne Marie, so Charlie asks what's wrong, and Charlie responded that since returning to Earth, he’s been having nightmares. Annabelle responds that as long as Charlie’s alive, the nightmares will not stop. Unknown to Flo overhearing the conversation, Annabelle said to Charlie that years ago, Annabelle's brother left Heaven to treasure His eternal life, not caring about what might happen the next time he dies. So, She hopes to find him before anything bad happened. but, during the conversation, Flo learned that Charlie died, and that Annabelle was a spirit. Then, Charlie, Itchy, Annabelle, And Anne Marie leave with Praline thanking Charlie for the temporary home.

Later, Charlie helps Anne-Marie find a home, then he asks Annabelle for advice, as the sun was going down at Audubon Park, Anne-Marie encounters Harold and Kate, who offer Anne-Marie a home, after learning She's an orphan. Anne-Marie takes the offer. Meanwhile, as Annabelle and a sorrowing Charlie head for the junkyard, Carface and Killer locate Charlie and shoot him for ten seconds. however, to Their surprise, They learn that Charlie is unhurt, as Charlie slips into a storm drain. They go to capture Annabelle, but they Run and let Annabelle be captured by the dogcatcher.

Unaware of Annabelle's capture, Charlie traverses the sewers and is attacked by a group of rats, and their leader, King Gator. As Charlie tries to escape, One rat bites on Charlie's tail, causing him to howl in a musical tone, making King Gator tell His rats not to hurt him, since he won't eat anyone with Musical talent. (Music is like Gold) after the musical number, King Gator lets Charlie leave the sewer in peace.

Later, Charlie visits Anne-Marie at her new home, which happens to be under construction. Charlie talks to Anne-Marie, wishes her the best of luck, then leaves for the church, before Charlie left, Anne Marie told him that Annabelle has been taken to the Pound, so, Charlie goes to rescue Annabelle, who is grieving as She remembers her past, leading up to her death, after a venomous snake bites her. (Such is Fate/Reprise of Let Me Be Surprised). Soon, after entering the pound, Charlie frees Annabelle, who was to be auctioned, and the both of them escape, heading for the Church. Minutes later, however, Carface and His henchmen, attack the church taking Charlie and the others to Carface's Casino. (Except Delta, who played dead to avoid capture and Tabasco and His kittens, who had escaped) Tabasco gets to Charlie's Place, right before one of Carface's henchmen got there, who got clobbered by the customers. Itchy, knowing Carface has gone too far, rallies the dogs and cats to head for Carface’s Casino to rescue Charlie and the others.

Inside Carface's Casino, Charlie And the hostages, are stuck in separate cages, Charlie asks for Carface to release His friends, and in exchange, Allows Carface to kill him In any way. Carface gladly agrees to killing Charlie, but refuses to release the hostages. (Green with Greed) Mauve, (Carface's Accountant) recognizes Annabelle as His Twin Sister, then tells Carface not to hurt His sister. as Praline calls out Carface's cruelty and calls him A heartless mutt. Carface, gets angry and orders His henchmen to drown Praline and orders Mauve to be put in the same cage as Annabelle. Tabasco sneaks in the Casino, cuts the power, and frees Charlie, who fights off Carface's henchmen, as Tabasco frees the hostages. with Anne-Marie, Flo, Annabelle, Mauve, Praline, and the Puppies freed, They exit the casino. however, the rusted walks break, with Anne Marie falling in the water. Soon, Charlie gets outnumbered, and one hench-dog bites Charlie's leg, causing him to howl in a loud tone, and King Gator comes to the rescue. Tabasco runs back to assist Charlie, and Carface's henchmen run for dear life from King Gator as Carface grabs Killer and uses him as bait to keep King Gator busy as he deals with Charlie. In the confusion, King Gator's tackling causes the casino to start to capsize, and an oil barrel falls on a ship engine, causing a fire. during the fight, Charlie sees Anne Marie in danger of drowning, kicks Carface into the water, tosses His life watch to Tabasco, as he gets Anne Marie on a floating piece of wood. As Carface kept Charlie from escaping, King Gator eats the both of them, as Charlie spoke, "And it couldn't have happened to a nicer dog." as the cats and dogs watch the casino sink, in the depths of the marsh, Itchy along with the cats and Dogs of New Orleans see Tabasco (wearing Charlie's life watch) and Killer rows an unconscious Anne Marie to safety, then Charlie's life watch slowly ticks to a stop.

A Few hours later, as Anne Marie woke up, She sees Itchy and Tabasco mourning Charlie, Anne Marie after realizing Charlie died, sheds a few tears for Charlie. One of her tears lands on Charlie's life watch, causing it to reactivate. seconds later, Charlie as a spirit returned as Annabelle and Mauve appear and tell Charlie that since he was willing to sacrifice His life to save Anne Marie, who mourned Charlie, is given a second chance at life and His place in heaven restored. Charlie, remembering that She hoped to have a family of her own, requests Annabelle to be restored, if She wants to. Annabelle, after She realized Charlie was right about Heaven lacking what the world of the living has, accepts it as She kisses His nose, with both of their bodies restored.

Months later, Tabasco's family are mousers of a cheese factory. Killer returns to His family, happier than he was in a long time. finally, Anne Marie is adopted by Harold and Kate as Itchy has an owner in Anne Marie. At Charlie's place, now belonging to Flo, becomes a shelter for lost and abandoned dogs, Charlie and Annabelle are at a small island south of Louisiana, looking at the night sky, as Annabelle says to Charlie, "A new chapter in our new lives will start soon", hinting that the two will become Parents, to a litter of puppies in a few days.
