Official Synopsis
Dr. John Dolittle has everything a man could want: a thriving career, a

to sign the biggest financial deal of his life. In short, Dr. Dolittle
has the world by the tail. But then something very strange begins to
happen: much to his shock and dismay, the good Dr.'s long-dormant
ability to talk to the animals is unleashed. Now, when Dolittle hears
the call of the wild, he can answer. And in no time at all, he finds his
perfect life heading straight for the doghouse. But Dr. Dolittle's new
