Plot summary
Beth Winter finds a dog abandoned beside a highway and names him Freeway, though her surgeon husband Joseph wants no part of him. Their daughter Grace marries veterinarian Sam Boola at the couple's rustic mountain cabin. Once the wedding guests have gone, Beth, Joseph, Freeway, Joseph's divorced sister Penny, Penny's son Bryan, and Penny's boyfriend Russell stay on for a few more days. Joseph walks Freeway into the woods, where he takes a phone call instead of watching the dog, and Freeway runs off after a deer. The household searches for him, joined by Carmen, the caretaker, a woman with a spiritual gift.
