What the Show Is About
The story of Pup Academy begins with a man named Charlie. He runs a secret school for puppies in a hidden world. At this special academy, puppies learn how to become amazing dogs.
Charlie's grandson, Morgan, moves nearby and starts helping him. Morgan's job is to help teach three puppies: Spark, Corazon, and Whiz. They need to learn quickly because something big is happening! The special connection between humans and dogs, which comes from the Canis Primus constellation (a group of stars), is starting to disappear.
There's an old prophecy, a kind of prediction, that talks about a boy and a stray puppy. The Dean of Graduates, or D.O.G. for short, has to find this special stray puppy. This puppy is the key to saving Pup Academy and making sure the bond between humans and their canine friends lasts forever.
