Plot
This story starts out with Bella as a puppy living in an old shack with her family in Denver, Colorado. She finds her way into the arms of Lucas, a young man who adopts her. When Bella becomes separated from Lucas, she soon finds herself on a 400-mile journey to reunite with her owner. Along the way, the dog meets an orphaned mountain lion, a veteran and some friendly strangers who happen to cross her path.
Adaptation
In 2019, the novel was adapted in a film of the same name.

gollark: In a sane system it would make more sense to just make the courses a year longer to cover background material instead of forcing people through 4 years of extremely expensive education.
gollark: Having to do 4 years of schooling before medicine-specific stuff seems dubiously useful.
gollark: Medical degrees here are like regular undergraduate ones but I think somewhat more government-specified and a bit longer.
gollark: Memorizing vast amounts of random information is probably less important now you can look it up quickly too.
