Lila has never failed to catch a dog. She's faster, smarter, and more prepared than anyone else at the marina - and she has the books, the hours, and the instincts to prove it. Dockside strays don't stand a chance.
So when a lean, fast, impossibly clever stray starts outsmarting every trap she sets, every plan she builds, and every chase she runs - something starts to crack. Not the plans. Her.
Because the dog isn't just uncatchable. It's teaching her that reading a situation is harder - and more important - than controlling it.
Dr. Love Dog: The Uncatchable Stray is a fast-paced, funny, emotionally intelligent middle-grade adventure (ages 10-13) about what happens when being really good at something isn't enough - and the only way forward is to stop trying to force outcomes and start learning to read them.
Perfect for readers who love:
- Mission-based stories with real stakes and a ticking clock
- Smart protagonists who fail forward - and figure out why
- Dogs that are genuinely, impressively intelligent
- Dry, deadpan humor that lands because the characters earn it
- Series with escalating challenges and real character growth
