After a year in psychoanalysis, a blocked
novelist named Solo (Giovanni Ribisi) is broke and at the
end of his rope. During their last session together, Solo’s
therapist (Don Cheadle) suggests that owning a pet may help,
causing Solo to acquire a small dog and all of the trouble
that comes along with it. Desperate and unable to cope, Solo
turns to his best friend Casper (Scott Caan), a womanizing
photographer who introduces Solo to Jules (Mena Suvari), a
wealthy dog collector who immediately offers to take the dog
off Solo’s hands. Solo just can't bring himself to hand the
dog over to her.
During an outing to the local dog park, Solo meets Lola
(Lynn Collins), a smart and very pretty woman caring for a
pit bull. This encounter sends Lola, Solo and Solo’s dog to
the vet, where Solo is forced to reveal just how broke he
really is. Thus begins an arms-length relationship that
becomes very close very quickly the night that Solo and
Casper discover that Lola works as a stripper. Things grow
complicated when Solo’s life is threatened by his loan shark
(Kevin Corrigan) while Jules, the rich dog lady, grows
increasingly obsessed with Solo’s now-bandaged yet loyal
canine companion. Then the dog goes missing.
