Tango, a pampered Yorkshire Terrier falls overboard from his owner’s yacht in a sudden storm and washes up on the shore of Prince Edward Island. Stripped of his silver collar and identification, Tango is initially mistaken for a dead rat in a lobster trap. Tango’s life becomes intertwined with a fox, a band of vicious cats, a rat, a runaway girl and a fisherman’s widow. What impact do they have on Tango’s life? Will Tango find his way home?  Where is home anyway? Travel with Tango as he discovers what being home is all about.  (New Hampshire Great Stone Face nominee, 2011)
