Troy, "the new kid in town," is comforted when he adopts a new dog at the shelter; Tilly is afraid of dogs and Buddy is happy at the shelter, but somehow the two bond. Each short story by a different popular author is connected through the Pawley Rescue Center, which places dogs with their families. Some of the stories lack a strong emotional core.
