Wilfred is this somewhat new TV Series in America where a talking dog (man in a dog suit) is helping a wimp guy free himself from his own chains.

In episode 11 the main character is on a new journey with high hopes to change his life. Small feasible goals have been set and he is starting to feel better. However, the all smarter dog knows that this is only a temporary high. As his demons have only gone on vacation and soon will be back.
It's only 20 minutes and entertaining. I'll leave the link down below. Enjoy.
