It tells the story of a 14-year-old Akari who finds a Golden Retriever puppy in her backyard. Her mother approves of her keeping the puppy on the condition that she never forgets 'The 10 Promises' of dog ownership. Slowly, the audience is guided on each of the 10 promises with the purpose of putting them in the dog's shoes and understanding them better. Soon, "Socks" is the name given to this adorable female pup due to her white paw markings. Socks proves to be a faithful and devoted friend to Akari through her growing years. However, as time goes by and Akari grows up, she slowly forgets the 10 promises until one fateful day when she is cruelly reminded of them.
