Summary: After spending a year in an 'Institute for Disturbed and Troubled Youths' (read: Teen Nuthouse) for 'mild schizophrenia' (read: hearing angels talking to him), 15 year old Jimmy Novak is losing his faith. His parents decide to give him a dog to help readjust to the world outside of the Institute - a fluffy puppy from a shelter, named Castiel. Cas, trapped in the form of a dog by an interfering Gabriel, is determined to help Jimmy regain his faith, and along the way learns a lot about what it means to have a friend. He's not too happy about this Dean Winchester kid who keeps hanging around, probably just trying to get into Jimmy's pants, though he does give pretty awesome ear-scratches... And somewhere, Gabriel's watching and laughing his arse off.
