Plot
Lucky Vincent is a gambler who, after a stretch of bad luck, owes more than $12,000 to mobster Solly Kramer. Lucky is rescued from Solly's goons by Daniel Hughes, a revivalist ex-con and his team of five trained Doberman Pinschers. After going undercover at a circus, Lucky persuades Daniel to work up an act with his dogs and join the carnival; when Lucky discovers that Solly and his gang intend to rob an armored car hauling the circus's box-office take, Daniel and his canine friends step forward to help thwart the plot. Along the way, Lucky also finds time to make romance with a beautiful circus performer named Justine Pirot.Cast
