SYNOPSIS
Greg and Kate have moved to Manhattan after 22 years of bringing up a family in the suburbs. One day Greg brings home a dog that he has found - or that has found him - in the park, bearing only the name tag 'Sylvia'. To Kate, Sylvia becomes a rival for her husband's affections, whereas Sylvia thinks that Kate just doesn't understand the relationship between man and dog. The consequences are hilarious, but occasionally also very moving.
