Possibly the most uneventful film I've ever seen!
A couple get married and get a puppy who quickly grows into a large unruly adult labrador. The dog causes a few mildly embarrassing moments. The man gets a good job in a newspaper writing about a column that turns out to be mostly about his adventures with the dog. After a bit of tragedy they start a family. The kids grow up to love the dog too. He gets a better job and they move into a bigger house. They conclude that having a dog is a good thing.
That's about it. Maybe a dog owner would have enjoyed it more. Wilson and Aniston do the best they can with pretty limited material but the movie is neither a drama or a romantic comedy. Perhaps I would have enjoyed it more if I had read the book it is based on.
