He never planned to have a dog, but this short-legged whirlwind quickly becomes more than just a companion—she becomes his true partner.

But Ema is not just a pet. Her natural curiosity, endurance, and sensitivity make her a true volunteer.

She finds paths where everything seems ruined and offers hope to those who need it most.
