Animal Haven is a temporary home for all sorts of Australian wildlife, although there are a few permanent residents as well, like Oscar the owl, Fur Bag the possum, Cinnamon the koala and Alice the labrador. Meg and Mike live there, too, and they work so hard to help their parents rescue and look after the animals that the locals at Jeff's Creek have nicknamed them the Aussie Angels.
Everyone at Animal Haven is stunned when Alice has eight pups: four golden and four black labradors! Clearly, the father is Lex, the pedigree black lab from down the road. But before long the pups get out of control and need training - and good homes. The Angels find trouble at puppy school, however, and when they try to organise homes for the pups, they discover that some families and their motives are not very honest.
