Katie and Leo have had a longtime friendship. Katie is heartbroken when she learns that Tina has passed away, leaving Leo alone with sadness. Tina’s son Canon is on a mission at sea far from home, so Katie is very concerned about Leo’s well-being.
When Katie got home, she discovered Leo had climbed into her car and wouldn’t let her go. So, in the hope that Canon would return to her job soon, she decided to adopt him. Leo’s laid-back attitude makes him quickly bond with the other dogs in Katie’s family at his new home. He quickly became a close part of their family.
