Nevertheless, Lily and Doggy quickly become fast friends. Sure Doggy doesn’t eat his dog food, can’t do any dog tricks, and never ever does what Lily tells him, but this rambunctious “pup” still steals Lily’s heart.
However, Lily’s mommy knows that every lost dog has a home of their own with people who miss them dearly. So Lily creates a “Found Dog” poster about their fantastic day together. But what happens if someone actually claims Doggy?
