Description: A teenage genius (Wesley Eure) invents a robot watchdog to bail out his girlfriend's (Valerie Bertinelli) father's (Conrad Bain) home-security business. Faster than a speeding pit bull and able to leap tall fire hydrants in a single bound, this powerful pooch is programmed to sink his teeth into crime. But when the company's rivals hear about C.H.O.M.P.S., they hire a pair of prowlers to destroy him.
