Immy loves thinking about make-up and fashion so much that one day as she gazes at herself in the mirror, Dad reminds her that it is what is inside that is important. Mum suggests that it would be good for Immy to learn to care for a dog who needs a loving home, so one fine morning Dad and Immy set out to adopt one from the SPCA. Of course Dad expects her to choose the cutest dog she can find, but after she looks at a beautiful fluffy poodle, an elegant, sleek greyhound and a pretty pert sausage dog, he is pleasantly surprised when she declares that she loves an ugly old dog who looks just like a bear. Immy can tell that he is lonely and needs lots of loving care. And maybe Scruffy will enjoy all the attention she lavishes on him, as she sets out to make him the most pampered dog on the street
Sam is a lively boy who loves his family, but he doesn't know how to show his affection. He'll only hug his mum and dad. He won't even hug his brothers, or his grandparents. This makes his Sam's mother sad. Nonna suggests they get Sam a dog, because dogs know better than 'us how to cuddle.' Monty, the dog they adopt, hasn't been part of a loving family before, and he's not comfortable cuddling either. But Monty responds quickly to affection and teaches Sam that snuggling and hugging the people you love isn't that hard.
