The film takes place in Coolsville, Ohio and begins as the cast is introduced on the school bus. Shaggy is a nerdy outcast who is frequently picked on by a jock, normally by getting tripped every morning on the bus. Fred is the quarterback of the football team and the jock’s friend, but disapproves of him picking on Shaggy. Velma is an outcast geek, and Daphne is in the drama club. At school, Shaggy’s trouble is trying to get his locker door open results in him falling in a trashcan and rolling into the Principal’s office, though this is clearly not the first time.
Principal Deedle suggests that Shaggy try to find some friends and says he should take up a hobby like his: philately (stamp collecting). Meanwhile, a talking Great Dane named Scoobert trying to get adopted at an adoption fair, during which he is reluctantly adopted but ruins the chance by pouncing the man and licking him. At the end of the fair he’s crammed into a cage and loaded into the back of a pickup truck. Scoobert falls out and begins to wander through a graveyard, but a strike of lightning resurrects a pair of ghosts. In a blind panic, Scoobert runs off and leaps into Shaggy’s house. They instantly become great friends, and Shaggy nicknames the dog “Scooby”.
