Two mismatched rescue dogs, Serge, an otterhound on the verge of retirement, and Roscoe, a border collie fresh out of the academy, are forced to team up to save the day when a wildfire ravages a Colorado forest.

But when the largest fire Colorado has ever seen starts tearing through the forest, it's all paws on deck for the Search and Rescue team. Serge and Roscoe are thrown together as partners, and with lives on the line, there's no time for them to not get along. Will this mismatched team figure out how to work together to save the day? Get your woof on in this story of bravery, adventure, and doggy snacks from beloved author and longtime bookstore owner Len Vlahos.
