Hooper
Hooper is a Boston terrier who lives in Chapel Hill in 1915. He likes to sing and do back flips and is a very loyal friend.
Hooper's best buddy and Pal is Preston Epps, a member of the UNC Glee Club. Hooper wants to sing along with them but no one appreciates his voice. They all keep saying, “Hush, Hooper.” But when the Glee Club Quartet invited to sing "Hark the Sound" for the inauguration of UNC's new president, Hooper will have a chance to prove that he can find the pitch.
