The aging dogs once again time travel thinking they are going back to Alaska to see Balto. Instead they find themselves transformed to young pups near the Missouri River where they meet Seamus. Seamus is traveling with the Lewis and Clark Expedition. The dogs find themselves surrounded by the many dangers of wildlife during the time of 1805.      

Students love adventure stories about dogs. The dogs face many dangers and must use problem-solving to survive. The author's note at the end tells true facts about the Lewis and Clark expedition.
