the frontier West. Who suddenly disappears. Jake is left with his cousin who threatens to shoot Jim Ugly for killing sheep. Jake is sure the dog, who is an excellent tracker, is innocent and runs away hoping it will lead him to his father. He discovers that a bounty hunter and some actors are searching for his father, too, because they believe he has stolen a fortune in diamonds. For seventy-five cents a night and the sound of applause Jake plays the role of William Tell's son. Bravely standing tall while apples are shot from the top of his head. As Jake gets closer to finding his father he begins to make friends and to understand Jim Ugly. Maybe the smart, loyal dog deserves a better name.
