'A Tail of Love' is a Hallmark rom-com that revolves around Bella running a dog rescue with her grandmother Lily, a passion project started by her late grandfather. The rescue's future is jeopardized when they learn that their primary sponsor — a dog food firm that was sold after the owner died – is ceasing to finance them. JR, the late owner's son, is a soldier on leave who is handling the sale arrangements.

JR interacts with Indie, a former military dog, while visiting the rescue and continues to visit to spend time with his new four-legged buddy. When Bella discovers that the rescue's property is also up for sale, she asks JR for assistance in locating the lost document certifying her grandparents' purchase of the farm many years ago. Bella and JR get closer and begin to fall in love as a result of the process, but JR's impending return to active service might put an end to their growing romance.
