Starring alongside Pratt are Kristen Wilson as Lisa Dolittle and Norm Macdonald as the voice of Lucky the Dog. This is the third film in the Dr. Dolittle series, and the first film not to feature Eddie Murphy as Doctor Dolittle, or Raven-Symoné as Charisse Dolittle, although they are mentioned in the film.
Plot
Maya (Kyla Pratt) has evolved considerably from the first film. Though she was formerly an antisocial 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 (Kristen Wilson) sends her and her dog Lucky (voice of Norm MacDonald) to a dude ranch named "Durango", so she can find herself. The ranch is owned by Jud (John Amos), and his son Bo (Walker Howard). 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 reveal 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.

Reception
Critical response
Although a relative success in DVD sales, the film was not well received by critics.
Of the three reviews given at Rotten Tomatoes, two were very negative:[2] one critic, Scott Weinberg, said "Cheap-looking, atrociously written, and delivered with all the energy of a breach-birth bovine, Dr. Dolittle 3 is all kinds of terrible." David Cornelius of eFilmCritic.com described the film as "not so much poorly made as it is lazy and cheap." Emily Ashby of Common Sense Media said of film: "Positive messages throughout tween-friendly animal comedy."
