More amusingly, his loyal wife, Angie (Constance Marie), rescues a hopelessly sick dog from a homeless man and the family goes about trying to rouse the pathetic mutt from its stuporous state (many sitcoms wring cheap laughs from a cute pup; give ``George Lopez'' props for trying the same with a truly mangy one).
