Freshly divorced and determined to start over, Liz moves into a new Brooklyn apartment convinced she wants a simpler, quieter life. Then a scruffy stray dog unexpectedly lands in her care, pulling her into the quirky, passionate world of dog owners. As she navigates nosy neighbors, eccentric dog park regulars, and the challenges of caring for a four-legged companion, Liz discovers surprising friendships and begins to confront the heartache she’s been trying to avoid. Warm, funny, and deeply relatable, Dog Mom is a charming comedy about second chances, unexpected love, and finding family where you least expect it.
