The second book in the series is about a little girl who adopts a tiny basset hound puppy and starts a whirlwind of adventures. Nikki skips home with her newly adopted, floppy-eared puppy in her arms. She creates a comfy home out of a blue box with pink and yellow curtains. However, that evening when everyone goes to bed, Abbey Dog gets lonely. She peers out of her box and does not see Nikki or the family anywhere. All she sees are big dark shadows looming everywhere, and she gets scared. Nikki hears Abbey Dog whimpering and comes downstairs to comfort her. After a few failed attempts, Nikki gets an idea. She gives Abbey Dog a magic collar that will make her brave, strong, and protected. Nikki places Abbey Dog in her bed and covers her with her blanket. Abbey Dog quickly falls asleep because she did feel braver now that she has on her magic collar.
