Big Boy is a South African Mastiff who lives wild in the back lot of a manufacturing plant in Cleveland, OH. He has no one to feed him, provide water, or care for him. He lives with the constant memory of being beaten by the human who used to own him, before that man brought him to this field and left him to survive on his own.

One day, a young girl and her dog show up with roasted chicken, a smile, and hope. Will that be enough to rescue Big Boy? To move him from his dreary home, living forgotten in some forsaken field? And will he choose to walk away from this unhappy existent and be rescued by a human and her dog?

This is a story of relationships filled with mistrust and doubt, friendship and betrayal, and the flowering of love. It’s about choosing to overcome the past and step forward into the future. It’s a story of how it feels when someone loves you.
