Dug(2021 Film)

Dug is a 2021 3D computer animated coming-of-age movie created by Pixar Animation Studios, and released by Walt Disney, as a semi-prequel to Up. It revolves around the supporting character of Dug in his past life before meeting Carl Frederickson and Russel. Dug has always been a disgrace to his pack with Alpha, Beta, and Gamma, so he has to find a way to fit in with the rest of the group on "The Spirit of Adventure".

At the beginning of the movie, Dug was adopted by Charles Muntz, and was taken into a blimp, and was greeted by the crew members(dogs) of "The Spirit of Adventure". Charles Muntz tells Dug that there is this special bird(Kevin) that will bring good luck to all the dogs on the airship. After time goes by, the dogs starts ignoring Dug because he was "idiotic" as described by Alpha, the main antagonist of the movie. Dug was an outcast, but still kept his spirits high as he wishes every birthday that he would have a new master, and finds out his wish came true when he meets an old man with a floating house, which is Carl Frederickson, and an 8 year old boy named Russel. Dug's life was heavily affected by the odd couple, and has gained potential to overpower Alpha. The ending of the movie is similar to the ending of Up, but focuses more on Dug's perspective.
