Synopsis
A girl wakes up trapped on a sinking ship, unable to remember who she is or how she got there. But her instinct to survive is strong and she fights her way to freedom and leaps into the unknown ?
When she washes up on the beach south of Los Angeles, she discovers two incredible facts: she is a dog, and she can understand human speech.
Pursued by menacing Animal Control officers intent on doing her harm, the dog we come to know as Wild runs for her life, befriended by a thirteen-year-old boy named Chance who is on his own quest to get home. They are joined by a mysterious hacker girl named Junebug, and the three unlikely compatriots fight for survival while trying to solve the mystery of Wild's past, her uncanny strength and abilities, and the amazing intelligence that allows her to communicate with humans via a mysterious high-tech collar.
Torn between her instinct for survival and the desire to protect the children, Wild is tormented by a recurrent nightmare and a longing to know who she is, what happened to her, and how she came to be a hunted loner. Now she must somehow escape her pursuers, keep the kids safe, and learn to trust people and her own instincts-until she can remember where she comes from, and make it home.
