Yapper's family ain't got much but they've got each other's love. That's what Jock tells the little puppy when he is feeling sad and blue. The family struggles every day just to have enough food to get by. Then, one night a fire comes and takes what little they had. While escaping to the river, Jock even thought their mama dog, Lucky and her pups had been lost. But Lucky was smart enough to guide her pups to the safety of the river. She was even ready to fight a big ol' bear to save her little ones. Thankfully, they were reunited with their human family. Like Jock said, "they had each other's love". It turned out, they had the entire community, too. The spirit of love was there when tragedy struck the good folks on Blackridge Mountain.
