An irresistible novel about women, men, and the dogs that own them. Thirty-nine year old Rachel is having a really bad year. After losing her job and breaking up with her boyfriend, Rachel has inherited her late aunt's house, her beloved border collie, and a crowded rescue kennel, despite the fact that she knows almost nothing about dogs. Still, considering her limited options, she gamely takes up the challenge of running the kennel. And as Rachel starts finding new homes for the abandoned strays, it turns out that it might not just be the dogs that need rescuing.

Juliet’s been in hiding - from her family, from her broken life, but most of all from the fact that Ben’s not around anymore. Her mother, Diane, has run out of advice. But then she insists Juliet look after her elderly Labrador and it becomes apparent that Coco the dog might actually be the one who can rescue her daughter. Especially when it leads to her walking dogs for a few other locals too, including a spaniel, Damson, who belongs to a very attractive man.... Before she knows it, Juliet realizes she has somehow become the town’s unofficial pet-sitter.

39-årige Rachel oplever sit livs krise. Efter at have mistet sit job, sin lejlighed og sin kæreste gennem ti år, arver Rachel et kæmpe hus på landet efter sin moster, dennes elskede border collie samt et overfyldt internat med herreløse hunde, selv om hun stort set intet ved om hunde. Og da slet ikke bryder sig særligt meget om dem. Trods sine begrænsede evner - og lyst - tager Rachel udfordringen op og forsøger at køre internatet videre i sin salige mosters ånd. Efterhånden som det lykkes Rachel at finde nye hjem til de herreløse hunde, viser det sig, at det måske ikke kun er hundene, der har brug for hjælp.
