Dr. 3/info/dolittle" target="_blank">Dolittle 3 is a 2006 American direct-to-video fantasy comedy film and the third film in the Dr. 3/info/dolittle" target="_blank">Dolittle series. It stars Kyla Pratt, the original daughter in the remake series, as Maya. Starring alongside Pratt are Kristen Wilson as Lisa 3/info/dolittle" target="_blank">Dolittle and Norm Macdonald as the voice of Lucky the Dog.
This is the first film not to feature Eddie Murphy as Doctor 3/info/dolittle" target="_blank">Dolittle nor Raven-Symoné as Charisse 3/info/dolittle" target="_blank">Dolittle, although they are mentioned in the film. 17 years later, it was revealed in a 2023 interview that the reason they did not return was because Murphy was too uncomfortable playing the father of a grown adult daughter.




Plot


Maya has evolved considerably from the first film. Though she was formerly an anti-social individual who was more interested in her science projects, Maya has transformed into the typical teenager. Like her sister Charisse, she inherits their father John's capacity for communicating with animals (she is a part-time veterinary assistant), her life has changed drastically on all fronts. She often ends up in trouble with her parents, while her friends think she has gone insane.
With John away on business, Maya's mother Lisa sends her and her dog Lucky to a dude ranch named "Durango", so she can find herself. The ranch is owned by Jud, and his son Bo. While at the ranch, Maya, who desperately tried to keep it under wraps so as not to arouse suspicion, uses her talent to "talk to the animals" in order to save Durango from being taken over by a neighboring dude ranch.
Maya is at first reluctant to show her ability to others, fearing rejection from her friends, but eventually does so. With her help, the Durango ranch enters a rodeo competition with a $50,000 award, and wins it. Also, she shares her first kiss with Bo and finally wins his heart.
