Greg and Kate have moved to Manhatten after 22 years of child-raising in the suburbs. Greg's careeer as a financial trader is winding down, while Kate's career, as a public school English teacher, is beginning to offer her more opportunities. Greg brings home a dog he found in the park - or that has found him - bearing only the name SYLVIA on her name tag.

A street-smart mixture of Lab and Poodle, SYLVIA becomes a major bone of contention between husband and wife. She offers Greg an escape from the frustrations of his job and the unknowns of middle age. To Kate, SYLVIA becomes a rival for affection. And SYLVIA thinks Kate just doesn't understand the relationship between man and dog.

The marriage is put in serious jeopardy until, after a series of hilarious and touching complications, Greg and Kate learn to compromise, and SYLVIA becomes a valued part of their lives.
