Synopsis by Sandra Brennan

This silent drama presents a fictional biography of the courageous canine Rin-Tin-Tin. The tale begins as an American lawyer arrives in Germany to help prevent his client from being cheated out of her estate by a German shyster. When the Yankee wins the case, the girl and her dog Rinty are filled with gratitude. Shortly after WW I erupts, the American returns to Europe as a pilot. He is shot down over Germany and crashes. As luck would have it, he is rescued by brave Rin-Tin-Tin and his mistress who works as a Red Cross volunteer.
