Kissy and Kawdje are Tibetan Spaniels adopted into the same household. Kissy is an affectionate, confident, aggressive extrovert. Kawdje is cautious and reserved. Topaz is a gentle German Shorthaired Pointer who lives in love and harmony with the animals. Michael Archangelo is a mixed breed street dog from Mexico who had never known love and was fearful of people until he takes a leap of faith by deciding to trust an American woman who befriends him.

The dogs act, think and feel in ways that mirror human behavior as they cope with the ups and downs and the personal and professional dilemmas of daily life. The sport of Dog Agility brings the dogs and their families together and the story is built around training for and competing in agility events. Motherhood alters everyone's plans because of an unplanned mating. A wedding takes place between two of the dogs' family members.

A strange crop circle experience involving the dogs and their families raises profound questions and controversial thoughts among the families about the distinction that humans make between themselves and animals.
