Gabby, who lives in a fancy housealong with her litter mates is treated like a lady from the start and actsaccordingly. The puppies are cared for by their breeder, Pat. Although they arefeisty and often make a mess of Pat’s home, she cannot deny that she lovescuddling up at night with her six dogs.

 

Soon, Gabby makes a new friend inMel, a bouncy, blonde-haired girl who comes to visit. Watson writes:

 

Gabby got used to Mel’s sweet littleface

and thought of Mel’s lap as herfavorite place.

 

Mel would eat cupcakes with her momand Pat

with Gabby curled up like aninnocent cat.

 

Then she would pounce on the cake orgive a lick

in hoping affection would do thetrick.

 

One day, Mel and her mom take Gabbyaway to live with them. Gabby is terrified to be taken away from Pat’s home andcries. But not for long! At Mel’s, Gabby meets Luke, another Cavalier, andfeels right at home. This is the beginning of many adventures with Luke andother dogs such as Wyatt, a German Shepherd mix, and Morgan, an AustralianShepherd.
