'''Puppy Swap: Love Unleashed''' is a 2019 romantic family comedy that's basically a dog variant of ''Film/{{The Parent Trap|1961}}''. Loving couple Mel and Jessica decide to surprise each other for their anniversary dinner by buying a puppy, unaware that the one they picked up happens to be the twin sister of the other. Three months later, however, the couple breaks up when Jessica accepts a job in Los Angelas and Mel doesn't want to move. A few years later, Jessica comes up with a successful brand and is sent on a publicity tour that includes going back to her hometown, first time she's been there since she moved. While there, the puppies, Haley and Lindsey, happen to come across each other and arrange to get their collars swapped in an attempt to get their owners back together.
