The film begins with the narration of a dead dog, Enzo, telling the audience its story with its owner Danny in flashbacks. Maybe it's fate, maybe it's luck, the moment he meets the owner, the dog Enzo's "Gousheng" begins a wonderful journey.
The male protagonist Danny Swift is a racing driver who has been in the business for many years, but he has been tepid; in addition to racing, he also teaches classes or works in a car repair shop to earn extra money.
He bought a dog while passing the farm one day, and caught a glimpse of Enzo, the first protagonist of the film, a golden retriever.
Enzo's childhood was spent on the side of the racing track, and even Enzo only likes to watch racing cars when watching TV.
In the days when he and Danny depended on each other, he became a dog with a "racing soul".
It wasn't until Eve, the female teacher who taught English, showed up that Enzo began to realize that he could no longer dominate the male master.
He didn't like Eve, but Danny was already attracted to Eve.
Soon they got married, and Enzo worked hard to be a good dog, giving them rings at the wedding.
Next, Eve gets pregnant, and Danny starts competing in more and more games, teaching lessons in his spare time.
Enzo was left at home to accompany Eve, he felt the little life in Eve's body, the hostility to Eve gradually dissipated, and he was also waiting for the birth of the little life.
But Danny's racing career never took off, and he even missed the birth of his daughter, when he was out of town to race.
The birth of the family's little princess "Zoe" gave Enzo a playmate, and he was proud that Zoe called him "elder brother".
He decided to follow the master's wish and protect Zooey well.
After having Eve and Zoe, Enzo has grown continuously. It can distinguish between happiness and cold through smell, and it also uses the language of prophets to analyze human nature.
Meeting Danny's sweetheart, Eve, for the first time, Enzo smells produce, shampoo and pheromones, the best scent of love.
Eve has cancer, and Enzo smells a strange smell like rotting wood wafting from her ears and nose, the smell of death.
Enzo smelt motor oil, gasoline and roast chicken on Danny before he died, the smell of familiar loved ones.
When Eve was sick and suddenly returned to her parents' house, Enzo was forgotten at home. It became a " left- behind dog". Whenever there was a sound nearby, it would run to the window to look and roar, looking forward to Danny's return. Enzo saw that no one was there. , it can only continue to remain silent, looking forward to reunion.
Enzo was so hungry that he was in a trance. Under the control of his demon Zebra, Enzo bit down all of Zoe's dolls. After a brief reunion with his family, he was misunderstood.
Because he's just a dog, after the initial smell of the mistress's sickness, he'll regret not being able to remind her. When he watched the little master feel sad because his mother was sick, he was glad that he couldn't speak, otherwise he really didn't know how to comfort her.
Enzo is attentive and careful. He knows that Eve's time is short. He is afraid that the disease will take Eve away in the dark. But mockingly said it was a lazy dog.
And the happy time is always short, the hostess Eve died of illness, and Danny also encountered rich parents-in-law competing for the custody of Zoe.
When Danny signed off on a settlement with his parents-in-law agreeing to give up custody of Zoe, Enzo finally decided to do something, he snatched the agreement and shredded it.
He is taking care of the family in silence, he can't speak, but he understands everything.
In the company of Enzo, Danny finally successfully won the lawsuit.
Enzo once saw on TV that after the Mongolian dog died, he would be reincarnated as an adult. He firmly believed that he was a Mongolian dog and was ready to be reincarnated. He would take the memory of this life and find Danny.
