Finding Joy

When they adopt an old dog from the local animal shelter, a little girl and her brother are excited to have a special new friend to play with. They embark on all kinds of adventures with Joy, romping through the snow and splashing in spring puddles. But one day, while the kids are at school, sweet Joy lays down for a nap and does not wake up.

Slowly, the family’s hearts begin to heal. Soon it’s spring again, and with a new season comes another furry friend in need of a loving home—MEOW!
