Overview

In a sleepy town in Virginia, Heidi Speece was a high school teacher in search of something new. The overachiever with a penchant for ""to do"" lists had grown bored with life. She knew she needed a change, and she found it when she rescued Ernie Bert - a mischievous golden retriever living on the streets of Istanbul, Turkey. When the two met, chaos commenced. Heidi thought things would calm down after the elaborate rescue mission that covered two continents, four states, and five thousand miles to save the Turkey Dog. She was wrong. Within his first week in America, Ernie Bert committed a felony, became a social media star, and turned his human's world upside down. Along with Heidi's eccentric mother and a host of other colorful characters, the self-proclaimed perfectionist quickly lost control of the life she had so carefully planned. Join along on this true story and madcap adventure as human and dog learn to navigate life together, and the teacher ends up learning the greatest lesson of all.
