AJ Goes to the Dog Park will release in select theaters July 25. Check out a new trailer for the film below.

In humdrum Fargo, North Dakota, an ordinary man named AJ (AJ Thompson) wakes up on the right side of the bed every day. Content with his mundane existence, his simple routine consists of buttering cinnamon toast for breakfast, eating dinner with his married best friends, and visiting his favorite dog park with his beloved chihuahuas, Diddy and Biff. AJ rejects any interruption to his tranquility, including a promotion at work – offered by his boss who happens to be his dad, but still. Unfortunately, the despotic local mayor has converted his dog park into a “blog park” – where happy dog walkers have been replaced with corporate stooges hunched over their laptops.

Thus begins a chain reaction that completely upends AJ’s existence as he trains to embark on an unforgettable odyssey to fight, fish, scrap, scrape and sap things back into place. Toby Jones (Regular Show, OK K.O.! Let’s Be Heroes!) brings the zany, gag-driven joy of cartoons to this surreal, no-budget testament to the average Joe.

AJ Goes to the Dog Park was written and directed by Toby Jones, best known for his work with Cartoon Network. Jones’s childhood friend, AJ Thompson stars in the cinematic gem as a mediocre man on an odyssey to protect the comforts of his routine life. The film, shot in Fargo with local talent in front and behind the camera, features a new original song by Rebecca Sugar (“Steven Universe”, “Adventure Time”) and a guest sequence directed by Owen Dennis (“Infinity Train”).
