Dog Was, The Movie. A new screenplay
Title:  Dog Wash, The Movie

Logline:  Barber Shop meets Must Love Dogs.
Love, misunderstandings, the Russian mob, and fun swirl around a West Hollywood dog grooming shop.

Synopsis:
Vicki, an attractive thirtysomething, owns a popular dog grooming shop in West Hollywood. Her fiancé, Tommy, heads a struggling rock band, and they can't marry until he gets a recording contract.
A colorful assortment of neighborhood characters try to help the frustrated couple. Among these are Drake, wealthy real estate developer, Vicki's best friend and landlord, and important figure in the gay community. There is Dimitri, a highly ambitious Russian immigrant, Drake's best salesperson, and fiancé of Christina who is Drake's sharp-tongued office manager. And Dimitri's prospective clients, Nikita and Lavrenti, mysterious recently arrived immigrant brothers who may or may not be connected to the Russian mob much to Drake's discomfiture.
Romantic and business relationships and misunderstandings are resolved with the help and/or interference of various human and canine friends. The finale is a Bollywood/Mamma Mia-type musical number at the Pride Parade. 

A draft script of about 90 pages is available.
