Product Description
A heartwarming story from the dream team of Michael Sampson, Bill Martin Jr, and Floyd Cooper.
Jennifer barely has time to get to know the stray dog she has taken in before it runs off, only to be discovered many miles away on a golf course. The lovable blue heeler is taken in by two boys who name her Caddie and grow to love her as one of the family.
Soon after, Caddie surprises her new owners with a litter of puppies. When the boys place an ad for free puppies in the paper, Jennifer is reunited with the dog she thought she had lost forever. The problem now is, where does Caddie belong? The boys’ generosity and self-sacrifice shines through in their willingness to let Caddie decide where she belongs. Based on a true story, this moving tale of a stray dog finding a home will capture readers’ hearts.

A good book for young animal lovers June 27, 2004
An interest in golf and dogs drew us to this book. My boys (ages 9 and 4) love reading it and relate well to loving a pet and having that love returned. It was heartwarming when they brought home the stray dog from the golf course and provided her with a good home. The antics of Caddie's puppies are very true to life. Having the original finder of the stray dog (Jennifer) come at the end to adopt a puppy tied it all together well. However, the part that is a little odd is where Caddie (the stray) has to choose over Jennifer, whom she knew only a few days, and Jon and Josh, her current owners for what seemed like several months. Overall a good book with nice illustrations.
