The rescue receives two new residents: Professor Clovis, a miniature schnauzer with a suspected liver shunt who needs a complicated and costly surgery, and Hamburglar, a blind puppy who Amanda prepares for his new forever family.

Amanda finds forever homes for her Hawaiian rescues; Super Scootie has malformed legs among other problems and Loco Moco struggles to process visual cues; a new rescue arrives named Lily Rose, a blind and overweight toy spaniel.

Amanda travels to California to pick up special needs dogs at a local SPCA; she comes home with a Rottweiler puppy with a severe eye injury, a husky shepherd mix covered in maggots and two small puppies whose ears have fallen off.
