A young boy tries to protect his dog from an abusive neighbor.

As tensions rise, Marty must decide if he has the courage to speak up before someone he loves gets hurt. Can he protect Shiloh and his family from Judd's unpredictable wrath? The stakes are high, and the clock is ticking. Will Marty find the strength to confront the truth and save those he cares about?
After Marty Preston worked so hard to earn the dog Shiloh, he had hoped that his troubles with Judd Travers were over. He could not rescue all the dogs that Judd mistreated, but since shiloh was the one who ran away and came to him, Shiloh was the one he loved.
Judd, however, has other problems. Anyone who cheats and swears and lies and kicks his dogs has troubles inside himself, and when the man starts drinking, Marty realizes that Shiloh is in danger once again. As hunting season approaches and Judd begins hunting on their land, the Prestos know that something is bound to happen.
They’re right. Marty does the only thing he can think of to do, and discovers just how deep a hurt can go and how long it takes to heal.
