After a run of bad luck, gambler "Lucky" Vincent owes over $12.000 to the gangster Solly Kramer. Lucky is rescued from Solly's thugs by a born-again Christian named Daniel Hughes who has a team of trained Doberman pinschers. When Lucky goes undercover at a circus, he convinces Daniel to create an act for the dogs and join him, which he does. Then when Solly's gang plan to rob the armored car that has the circus's box office money in it, the dogs spring into action to foil the plot. (official distributor synopsis)
