SYNOPSIS

Westley is a Corgi, a small dog with big ears, little legs, and tons of fluff. Late at night he’s woken by Teg, a Fairy, who dog-naps him and flies him off to her village. There he finds the Fairies haven’t only stolen him, but every Corgi they could find. Teg explains that their village is under threat and that in their legends, Corgis are best helpers of Fairy kind. She assumes they must be great fighters. The dogs agree to help but are useless as warriors. Instead, the dogs offer what skills they have, which is running, tugging, herding, and fetching. By doing what they’re best at, the Fairies and Corgis face their fear and discover it’s not the threat they’d assumed. After a huge party and an invitation to stay, Westley returns home at sunrise. Tired from his all-night adventure, but excited to play with his new friends again soon. Based on Welsh folklore, where Fairies and Corgis have a special relationship.
