“So, if I just do things that I like, I’ll find a family that likes those things, too?” Mortimer asked.
Mortimer’s family doesn’t appreciate his taste for adventure. A run-in with a roast turkey is their last straw, and the family brings Mortimer to an animal shelter. He desperately wants a new home and tries doing what all the other shelter dogs do. Nothing seems to work.
One day, the dog next door asks Mortimer a question that makes him wonder: Is the secret to finding his forever family already inside of him?

Encourage children to celebrate their individuality, even in the face of adversity.
