Takes place after A Sea Dog's Tale, but before A Sea Dog's Way Home. In honor of Ciao Alberto! "Life in Portorosso is AWESOME! Everything's perfect. Especially my new job. I'm basically the greatest herding dog in the world. And quite possibly the greatest fisher. Besides Massimo and Alberto, of course. The three of us, we're like pasta and pesto. Alberto claims he'll be the perfect employee. Bottom line, I'm looking forward to what he has in mind."
