Plot summary

Sarah Nolan (Diane Lane), a preschool teacher in her thirties, is recently divorced. Her family's new pet project is to find her a boyfriend. After a series of disastrous, but hilarious, dates she decides to swear off dating for good. Her well-meaning family and friends are not going to let her give-up quite so easily though. Her sister enrolls her in on-line dating and includes the description of "must love dogs". She loves dogs, but doesn't own one of her own, so she borrows her brother's dog to meet Jake Anderson (John Cusack) at the dog park. He, too, had to borrow a dog. It's a hit-and-miss beginning - but could true love wag its tail for these two?—Johnson
