You’ve probably never met someone like Clancy. He’s keeping a diary, he’s falling in love, there are rivals for his affections, he lives with his best friend and his worst enemy. Even taken together, these factors are maybe not that unusual, except that Clancy is a dog. His point of view is therefore perhaps…different. A tremendous cast of wonderful characters find themselves jointly and separately navigating the challenges of life, love and…other pets, including Clancy's “worst enemy” --- one very disdainful cat. It’s a lot to keep track of, especially when things start to spin hilariously out of control. But fortunately we have the observations of Clancy, a very good dog, who shares a valuable perspective on what is really important.
