Meet Louie. He' s a dog of very fine taste. He knows every chef in town, and each day he wanders the city, visiting his favorite restaurants. It' s a good life, except. . . Louie is all on his own. What Louie wants more than anything is a family. But try as he might, Louie can' t seem to find a family that' s right for him. At the beach, he meets a little boy and his mother. . . but they' re eating green jello salad and sardine sandwiches (Louie' s least favorite foods!). At his favorite sushi restaurant, Louie spies a father and daughter with an open seat at their table. . . but their cat chases him away. At the park, he meets a nice family having a yummy barbecue, but when they invite him to play frisbee. . . Louie just can' t keep up. Where-oh-where will Louie find a just-right family of his very own?
