What seemed to be a boring, rainy afternoon for two delightful Dalmatian dogs quickly reveals an extraordinary adventure to a marvelous new world. Oliver and Elizabeth, the two Dalmatians, find a curious opossum emerging from a hole in their backyard. The hole is in reality a tunnel in which the befriended opossum leads the two dogs down into and through to the other side. Once they climb out of the tunnel they discover a vast and beautiful forest. The opossum takes them into the forest and to a ramp that spirals upward around a colossal tree to a city in the tree tops; a safe haven for animals, Woodville. Woodville is ruled by a great bald eagle known as King Opulent. Under his rule is a wide variety of animals living together in a peaceful community. However, one animal Woodville does not have is dogs. Not only are there no dogs in Woodville, dogs are believed to be myths. Once Oliver and Elizabeth follow the opossum into the city they quickly become an overwhelming attraction. They encounter many animals, including one untrusting skunk. Through their sticky interaction with the skunk they learn that dogs have quite a negative reputation, as depicted in the well-known Woodville fairytales. Oliver and Elizabeth can only hope, in this "peaceful community," that this gigantic mob of animals will show them some compassion and allow them to return home safely (Full Color Version)
