Feeling responsible for the injured animal, she takes the dog home and nurses it back to health. However, she soon discovers that the dog is not just ordinary, but has been specifically trained to attack and kill black people.

Shocked and disturbed by this horrifying revelation, Julie decides to seek help from a professional animal trainer named Keys (played by Paul Winfield). Recognizing the dangerous potential of the dog, Keys takes on the challenge of retraining the white dog in an attempt to undo the ingrained racial aggression it has been subjected to.

The story delves into the complexities of racism, both in society and within the dog itself. Keys uses various techniques to recondition the dog's behavior, employing training methods such as classical conditioning, desensitization, and positive reinforcement. Throughout the process, the film explores the nature versus nurture debate, asking whether the dog can truly be rehabilitated or if its aggressive tendencies are innate.

As Keys and Julie work together to reform the white dog, they face numerous obstacles and encounters that test their determination. Additionally, the film portrays the underlying racial tensions and societal prejudices they encounter as they try to protect the dog from further harm.

White Dog is a thought-provoking drama that presents a challenging narrative, exploring profound issues surrounding racism, social conditioning, and the potential for change.
