In December 2014, a chocolate-colored dog with golden eyes is found wandering in Arizona's Yuma Desert. A kind-hearted man brings the lost dog to a rescue facility. Sadly, no one chooses to adopt the stray, whose desperate wish is for a family to love and cherish him. Soon, however, while he's at a second animal rescue, his picture is published in a local paper and-voila! A compassionate couple fall for him, name him Karl, and bring him to his forever home, one filled with unconditional love. Parents and children alike will be captivated by this tender, humorous look at Karl's now happy life-told from his point of view and with pictures of the real Karl, a handsome Boykin Spaniel.
