Rex further proceeds to assist a 12-year old boy, Shane Fahey (Josh Hutcherson). The dog helps the boy’s father, Connor (Bruce Greenwood) a veteran fire chief and becomes mascot of a hapless fire station which turns the station into the city’s finest. And now Shane becomes his reluctant new master. But Shane’s behavior changes on discovering Rex’s stunning skills, which the firefighters put to use during rescue calls and makes Rex its mascot.
