Wanted: new homes...When the strays from a local dogs' home are matched with brand new owners, it turns out it might not just be the lost dogs who need rescuing. Helen's ex-husband has given their children a puppy. The kids are in love, but she's the one stuck training the impossible Labrador. She's nearly at the end of her tether -- until then the puppy bounds up to a handsome doctor...Meanwhile Kirsten and Johnny are happily married, even if it's not been so easy since they started trying for a baby. But can owning a neurotic basset hound really make up for not having a child? And Ambrose and Winnie just fear that they're too old for a new dog. But there's life in them yet, as a loyal dachshund will teach them. As the new owners' paths cross, their lives all become interwoven and linked. Just as they -- and their dogs -- learn lessons about loyalty, companionship, and maybe even some unconditional love...
