When a decoding device known as the BARKode goes missing, all fingers - and wet noses - the point at the mysterious black panther Sharposky, a sharp-clawed villain bent on destroying the Canine Intelligence Agency. Major Oddball has no choice but to convince his best CIA agent, 00K9, to come out of retirement and personally recover the BARKode from Sharposky's claws.

When a devious black panther known as Sharposky uses the psychic powers of the ancient mastodons to render CIA's Major Oddball powerless, the Agency's most trusted operative, Agent 00K9 must cut his Christmas vacation short to confront the wicked panther head on and prevent an attack on Knightsbury on Christmas Eve. It's sleigh bells and thrills with 00K9: Operation Christmas.

When Oddball, head of the Canine Intelligence Agency (CIA), learns of a villain named Sharposki and his elaborate plot to detonate a nuclear warhead to destroy the CIA and the whole galaxy with it, he has no choice but to call in Agent 00K9 to solve the case. Action, adventure, and comedy: 00K9 likes his tail shaken.
