Ember is an 8-year-old girl with a great big personality and the heart of an adventurer. She is a creative, loving girl that would rather have animals as her friends than people. Ember's mother left when she was five, and she is being raised by her father, Luke, and her grandmother Norah on their family farm in Montana. One rainy afternoon while doing her chores, Ember is informed by her dog Skeeter that there is a trapped puppy under the barn's porch facing the rising creek. Ember runs to rescue the puppy, and that is when her adventure with River begins. River is fun and high energy, and boy does she love to run, and she can run really fast! Ember tells River that she has a magic paw, which is why she runs fast and can beat all of the horses on their farm. She is so sure that there is something magical about her new dog that she is trying to figure out a way for River to race the fastest dog in the county; a champion Greyhound named Oliver. Ember and her best friend Frankie put their heads together and start the mission to bring attention to River and how fast she can run in hopes of convincing Oliver's owner that River is worthy of the race. Ember and Frankie invite you to join them on their big adventure with River and fall in love with all their barnyard friends!
