When Poppy was born, it was ɑ long time before she could come home from the hospital, so when Jessie-Dog has ɑ puppy that's smaller than the others, Poppy insists it can do everything the other pups can do.
But Dad says there's no place for weak pups on ɑ farm. Poppy has to convince him to let her take care of Pipsqueak, determined to prove the little pup can grow into ɑ fine dog.
But what if she fails? And what if Dad decides Pipsqueak needs another home, far away from Poppy?
