What happens when a backpacking adventure turns into a global rescue mission - all because of one determined little street dog? That's exactly what happened to Mirelle. She set off to Peru with her cousin, hoping to heal her heart. What Mirelle didn't expect was to meet someone who would change the course of her life forever. One night a malnourished puppy with matted fur wandered into her eco cabin - and refused to leave. He returned the next day, and the day after. Before long, he was following her through towns and markets, curling up beside her in the hostel, and trekking alongside her through the mountains. He was free to go, yet her never strayed more than a few steps away. She decided to name him Paddington, the street dog from Peru. As Mirelle's trip came to an end, heartbreak struck. She faced an impossible goodbye. How could she leave behind the dog she had fallen in love with, the dog who has so clearly chosen her as his human?
