Dog Agency

Tatum from @hi.this.is.tatum, one of the TikTok and Instagram's most beloved "talking" dogs, stars in this heartfelt and humorous story about a charismatic canine's journey home. The millions of fans who love Tatum's distinctive quirks and hilarious voice are in for a treat with this uplifting adventure from The Dog Agency, as are fans of feel-good fiction by Victoria Schade, Annie England Noblin, and Bruce Cameron. AN EXCERPT FROM TATUM'S DIARY: "Here's a few fings I learned on my vacation . . . beef jerkey is delightfoo, hikin is just walkin but for a long time, and if you get into someone's truck they don't know where you live also you have to tell them you're in the truck. Also I fink maybe I wasn't on vacation?" *** The late May air is filled with the rich scents of a Maine spring, and Tatum, a sweet, rust-colored rescue dog, is enjoying a trip to the hardware store with his dad when a heavy thunderstorm blows in. Frightened, Tatum scampers off to hide-and buries himself beneath a blanket on a nearby truck. When Tatum wakes, hungry and confused, he's hours from home. The truck's kind owner promises to get him back to his family, but that'll be no easy feat. Tatum lost his collar during his travels, and with power out because of the storm, the local vet can't scan for a chip. But Tatum, with his deep golden eyes and trusting gaze, has a knack for making friends-and for letting humans know exactly what's on his mind. While his mum and dad do everything they can to track him down, the people Tatum meets on his journey are just as eager to do their part to get him home. And in turn, Tatum has a way of nudging everyone he encounters to overcome hurdles, seek out second chances, and find-or make-the families they need.

A sweet, smart, and uplifting adventure starring Ducky, the adorable Yorkie and real-life internet star who loves dressing up as his favorite celebrities and creating the perfect photo shoot. But like all dogs, Ducky also seems to know just what the humans around him need most... One hot fall day, schoolteacher Layla Sanford arrives at her cozy home to find she has two guests. One is a tiny, adorable Yorkie in a cable-knit sweater and a fuzzy yellow ducky hat. The other is Layla's best friend Christine, Ducky's beloved person and momager. Ducky, after all, is no regular dog. He's a TikTok star with millions of Followers making up in personality and photogenic appeal what he lacks in size. Layla agrees to watch Ducky while Christine is called away for work and is quickly charmed by the miniature mutt. Ducky instinctively seems to know how to cheer people up, whether it's by picking out the perfect canine costume or gravitating to Lucas, a shy, lonely new student in Christine's class. Layla isn't the only person concerned about Lucas. Garrett, Layla's handsome colleague, is also worried about the little boy. But it's Ducky who comes to the rescue, becoming Lucas's unlikely protector and a class mascot, beloved by all the students, and the whole town. So, when the school lunch program is cut and the community is threatened by rumors of a plant closure, Ducky might just be the hero the town never knew they needed. The Yorkie's loving personality brings Layla and Garrett together, and inspires them to find ways to bring more joy to their small town, spreading Ducky's message of self-love and acceptance as only a loyal, funny, feisty little dog can do...
