Book Synopsis
When Joey Mitchell’s beloved Labradoodle, MacDoodle, mysteriously disappears, Joey fears he may never see his best friend again. But Mac is having the adventure of a lifetime in the magical Land of the Ruff-n-Tuff, where he meets an unforgettable pack of sports-loving pups who believe he may be the True Guardian of the Magical Little Red Ruff-n-Tuff Ball. Under the watchful eye of tough Coach Spike, Mac trains alongside Reggie Doggie, Surfin’ Sam, Madd Dogg, Muffy, Tike-n-Tina-n-Tiny, and the fabulous Poodle twins Fluff-n-Feef. Through hilarious mishaps, unlikely friendships, and plenty of determination, Mac discovers that being a true Ruff-n-Tuff Sports Pup isn’t about being the biggest, fastest, or strongest—it’s about never giving up.
After a mysterious encounter with the otherworldly Mar-dogs reveals Mac’s extraordinary destiny, he must make the most important journey of all—back home to Joey. Reunited at last, Joey soon discovers that his once-scrawny little pup has returned remarkably different. And when a carefree summer adventure at Pottersville Lake suddenly turns dangerous, Mac gets the chance to prove what he has learned and show everyone what it really means to be a hero. Filled with humor, heart, sports, friendship, and a little Ruff-n-Tuff magic, Ruff-n-Tuff Sports Pups is an adventure about believing in yourself, finding your way home, and discovering that sometimes the greatest champion of all is the one you already love.
