About

You might enjoy this if you like gentle, pet-centered family dramedies and relationship friction in the spirit of And So It Goes; Not for you if slow searches, strained humor, and aggravating behavior wear you down.

Pros: heartfelt dog premise; light family chaos | Cons: slow pacing; frustrating characters; thin story
