A little dog living in the big city. Not the sharpest knife in the drawer, and prone to crazy shenanigans. And did I mention she has the hots for her owner? This isn’t the sort of thing a dog can just be open about, even to him, so she has to settle for trying to get him to return the favor on his own terms...somehow.
Mandy’s owner, a recent college graduate and immigrant to the city. If Mandy is a storm, Jeremy is its eye, albeit one that really could use glasses. Completely unaware of Mandy’s interest in him, to her constant frustration.
Mandy’s best friend from down the street and accomplice to her crazy schemes. A lot less enchanted with the human world, owing partly to the kind of humans she has to put up with at home. And for the curious, she’s an Alaskan Klee Kai.
Ginger's eccentric human family: Tom, a former actor with a weird sense of humor; Ann, the doting mother obsessed with “cute”, and their three-year-old Ollie. Remember the smothering family you couldn’t wait to move away from after high school? Imagine being their pet.
The seventy-something landlady of Jeremy’s apartment building, which she bought with the winnings of a pay discrimination lawsuit. Committed to fairness and the wellbeing of her tenants. Which makes her one of the only, what, ten decent people in the whole city?
Scout and his sister Suzie, Tipper, Rags, and Evan. Mandy’s old “crew” from back when she was a stray. They live in the local junkard, or dump, or whatever you want to call it.
