Description
This heartwarming story introduces us to Easton on the first of his many adventures with his owner Elizabeth Retter and her family.
One morning, Easton wakes up to some terrible news: due to the pandemic, there is a meat shortage! In a panic, Easton takes matters into his own paws and escapes across a busy city street to the neighborhood deli. Easton's family, the deli, and its customers have no idea what they are in for—then again, neither does Easton! This is the true story of a rescue dog who loves a good adventure.
