Fred Randal enjoys being Farmer Fred, host of the local television station's farm report show. But still, the job is less than exciting—until Lady, the pint-sized cow, turns his life upside down. The station plans to use Lady's plight—she's adorable, lost and without a protector—to increase ratings, with Fred presented as her protector and spokesman.
But Lady has other ideas. She's unpredictable, irrepressible, and maybe even a little scary. Still, with her help, and antics, Fred and Lady achieve nationwide recognition. But then, unexplainable things begin happening, and it appears that Fred just might have the proverbial tiger by the tail. But it's such a cute tail, and it's attached to a sweet little lady, who just might make it worthwhile to hang on and see what happens.
Poor Fred. If only he knew.
