Description:

Mr Inukai Keeps A Dog is a heartwarming family drama centering on Tamotsu Inukai, a dedicated middle-aged family man. Although he loves his wife, daughter, and son deeply, his job forces him to work on a distant island, leaving his family behind in Tokyo. To cope with the distance, they communicate daily via a computer webcam. Feeling his absence, the son brings home a Samoyed dog to keep the family company. The major conflict arises because Mr. Inukai has a strong dislike for dogs. Despite his protests from afar, he cannot convince his family to abandon the pet. When Mr. Inukai finally returns to Tokyo, he is forced to live under the same roof with the fluffy Samoyed dog. This charming story beautifully captures the struggles, humor, and growth of a distant father trying to reconnect with his family while learning to accept their beloved new four-legged member.
