Factual error: Towards the end where Dennis Quaid makes his appearance, the location is Michigan. But all of the cars have Michigan plates on the back and front. Michigan doesn't require or even allow license plates on the front, only the back.

A Dog's Life follows the story of a very loyal and lovable dog's spirit as it lives out various lives with its human and animal companions. Sometimes sweet, sad and poignant, A Dog's Purpose shows the ups and downs of his existence as well as human fortunes and misfortunes in a very relatable way. While it helps to be a pet lover-and particularly a dog lover-to enjoy the stories as told through it's eyes, there's something for everyone to appreciate in this fantasy/comedy/drama. Sensitive viewers might want to keep tissue within reach.
Bailey: So, in all my lives as a dog, here's what I've learned. Have fun, obviously. Whenever possible, find someone to save, and save them. Lick the ones you love. Don't get all sad-faced about what happened and scrunchy-faced about what could. Just be here now.

Chosen answer: I don't know what his specific occupation was, but the term to "get off the road" would refer to someone who constantly travels, either domestically or internationally, for their job, but they now want to work in their company office every day. The most common trope would be the "traveling salesperson" who was constantly "on the road," going town to town, selling their product.
