One day a door is left open a little too long, and off he runs just as fast as he can. Along the way he meets a nice couple who feed and bathe him and even let him stay the night, but in the morning, Toby is gone again.

Scared and lonely, and missing his family, Toby knows that he must return to his own home and family. Come on this adventure with Toby and see what he learns and how he makes his way back home-the long way
