Ralphy is your typical North American city-living dog. He has structure and humans, but is afraid of his own bark and shadow--in fact, he's afraid of a lot of things, and because of that he struggles to find happiness.
While Ralphy is on a family trip to Panama, he is forced way out of his comfort zone. He experiences some pretty scary things, but also some beautiful and amazing things. Through his adventure, Ralphy learns to confront his fear and his bully, Grizz. He also meets some special friends along the way!
