Arnie Whitehall finds a stray dog during a snow storm and brings her home, where she promptly gives birth to eleven puppies. Over his partner Jason Feldman's objections that they're breaking their lease, Arnie is determined to keep Mama and her brood. Arnie feels an instant attraction to Dr. Collin O'Connor when he takes Mama and the pups to the vet's. Although Arnie resists, it soon becomes obvious the feeling is mutual. And where's the harm? Arnie and Jason have become more like roommates than boyfriends over the years. Will Arnie, Mama, and her babies be left homeless when their landlord finds out? Or will Collin come to the rescue and offer them a home and much more?
