Puppy Love is a 2023 American romantic comedy film directed by Nick Fabiano and Richard Alan Reid.

The film stars Lucy Hale, Grant Gustin, Nore Davis, Michael Hitchcock, and Jane Seymour.

Under threat of possibly losing his IT job for always working from home, his therapist suggests he get a dog as a way to interact with people.

Over dinner, when Nicole proudly announces she's been promoted to head stager for her real estate company, her mother belittles her job.

While Max goes to bed early, as he dislikes typical weekend nightlife, Nicole is out doing shots and clubbing.

Arriving home late, she inadvertently adopts a homeless dog hanging around her building's dumpster after showing him kindness.

Taking a walk calms Max's nerves, so when he returns he explains to Nicole that his COVID quarantine, caused by his fiancée's cheating, worsened his OCD.

Together again, the humans and dogs do a road trip for her art school interview at University of Washington, but get waylaid due to Chloe going into labor.

Unbeknownst to Nicole, Max submitted her portfolio virtually, so right after they spent the night together for the first time, she was surprised to be accepted into their art program.
