Book Three: Bark at the Park: This year’s Bark at the Park event at the Middleburg Red Dogs baseball stadium could not have gotten off to a worse start. The first pitch hasn’t even been thrown yet, and there’s already been a furry intruder, a dog stampede, and a kidnapped mascot. Now it’s up to Leila and Kait, along with their dogs Nugget and Baxter, to rescue Red Dogs’ mascot and save Bark at the Park. It’s a race to solve the mystery before the final out!
