I had assumed the Jazz Ramsey mystery movie would follow the book series by the same name and, to some degree, it does. This movie is based on the plot of the second book in the series, The Secret of Bones: A Jazz Ramsey Mystery Book 2, but uses the German Shepherd breed from the first book.
They do make it clear in the movie that Jazz trains cadaver dogs setting the stage for a different dog or dog breed to be used if Hallmark decides to make it into a series. Although, let's face it, they are not likely to find a more handsome lad in all the world!
I suspect they used the German Shepherd because that is the breed most of us associate with police dogs, but cadaver dogs include the Border Collie, Labrador Retriever, Belgian Malinois, Coonhound, Beagle, Doberman, English Springer Spaniel, St. Bernard, several other shepherd breeds and of course, the Bloodhound. These breeds are chosen due to their anatomical & behavioral traits and go through hundreds of hours of training. They are very impressive and dedicated dogs.
Jazz Ramsey: A K-9 Mystery Movie Synopsis
|
Jazz Ramsey has been invited to Astor Academy (high school for girls) to give a demonstration of the remarkable abilities of the cadaver dog she is currently training to the school's Forensic Science Club. She is allowed to set up her presentation in a rarely used room on the 3rd floor of the school.
In preparation, she hides two human bones in the room for Zeus, the cadaver dog, to find. When the club members are assembled, Jazz gives Zeus the order to find, but he uncovers more then the hidden bones.
Zeus finds a real, complete dead body that has been hidden under the floor. Because of the glasses and the clothes on the body, Jazz and the headmistress believe it is Bernadette Quinn, a retired teacher that was not very popular.
There are a lot of secrets discovered during the investigation. The ending was rather surprising, which makes this movie the perfect mystery!
Jazz Ramsey: A K-9 Mystery is not currently available on
Amazon. Because it was so recently released, it is only available on
the Hallmark Channel or on a streaming service that offers Hallmark
movies. I watched it on Frndly TV.
