Soon after the Lowry Family - Tom, his wife Karen, and their two children, Liz and Widdy - leave the big city and move to the small Northern California town of Placerville, they are 'adopted' by a very clever, yet lovable, stray golden retriever - Pilot. It's not long before they discover that Pilot is pregnant. The Lowry family, and especially Liz and Widdy, grow very close to the puppies during their weaning period. But Tom makes it clear that, like most families, they must give away the puppies after they've been weaned. It's particularly hard on Liz and Widdy, but they manage to give all the puppies away, and it's funny and fascinating to see who shows up at the Lowry residence to adopt a puppy. However, Pilot is determined to get her puppies back, and the Lowry Family must endure a comical series of events that make them realize that life is just not the same without the puppies. But retrieving six puppies from people you don't even know is no easy task. And soon, Tom Lowry finds he must choose between his job or his family. With Pilot in the lead, the Lowry's set off on a quest to retrieve Pilot's puppies - an adventure that ultimately leads them into the realization of what it really means to be a family.

| Common Sense MediaRenee SchonfeldAdorable puppies are the highlight of illogical movie. |
| User ReviewJohn BExcellent family and up lifting movie. I loved this and if you are animal lover you will love it as well. |
| User ReviewCorinneReed FThis movie is about dogs -- Golden Retrievers. There is one sad part when a puppy has an accident at a farm (accident does not equal going to the bathroom in this case; the accident is implied and talked about but not shown). A great family movie. |

| User ReviewAriana DGREAT MOVIE!!! my uncle wrote this movie. it is a really good movie! kinda sad though.î??î?? |
| User ReviewSarah Poh what a very cute movie... adorable little retrievers.... so sweet.... thoroughly enjoyable, especially if you're a dog lover. |
| User ReviewFinnegan NTacky, looks fake... Good plot, bad director, bad actors, awful photography, overall, a bad movie. I liked it, but, extremely bad image, sound, and worst of all, acting. Boo!!! It's VERY VERY BAD AND POORLY MADE. |
| User ReviewMichael KThank god the movie had dogs in it, otherwise it would've been twice as bad. Don't see this, go buy a puppy instead. |
| User ReviewLauren BThis was a corny movie. Younger kids that really like puppies might like this film. Other than that, the story, the script, the acting....all of it is just stupid. One scene has the Dad breaking into someone's house to steal back their puppy. Hello Reality? Who would do that? Even Betty White couldn't save this mess. |
