Has Ryan been hallucinating, smoking away his life in a possibly imaginary basement by himself? Does Ryan have magical powers that allow him to speak to animals? Heavy as these episodes may be, their existence is necessary to keep the series moving; the plot needs to be driven by more than an ongoing gag reel of dog jokes, and these episodes provide a catalyst without providing viewers with any answers.
There is a depth to this show that viewers are constantly aware of, and it comes hand in hand with a goose-bump-eliciting sense of doom for the characters that viewers cannot shake.

By the end, he ultimately accepts Wilfred into his life and doesn't really ask any more questions.
One of the things I love most about the show is No character plays the villain of their own story, and for Wilfred, he's the hero of his story. It's not Two and a Half Men.
If you haven't already guessed, this isn't your typical sitcom. While there are broad laughs like most dogs, Wilfred likes to hump things , the comedy is often more clever than laugh-out-loud hilarious. The show is very adult, but Gann says it appeals to a childlike imagination. Gann compares the show to fairy tales and says the audience is able to believe in Wilfred the way Ryan does because of an innate sense of imagination we're all born with.
When Ryan puts up a pet pen in the kitchen, which Wilfred as a man could easily step over, he nevertheless acts as though it is an impassable barrier, and reacts with genuine surprise when Ryan steps over it.
Wilfred is led mainly by his instincts, giving him a short attention span when something more interesting shows up. In this he is a fantastic contrast to Ryan, who always worries about the future.
Sometimes this is helpful, but more often is comically disastrous. He is often shown to be manipulative in order to get what he wants and to help Ryan.
For most of the series, Wilfred is an extremely mysterious entity. Like Bruce he is known to be a liar and much of what he reveals about himself is not exactly known how true it is. According to him in Trust , he was born among seven other pups and then put in a bag and thrown into the Chesapeake Bay and was the only survivor. However, in later episodes, he mentions his sister, which could mean some survived or he made this story up.
Later, in Uncertainty it is revealed that Wilfred was originally called "Stinky" and had run away while on vacation in Wisconsin, so his original owner cloned him. In Happiness Wilfred confesses to Ryan that he had an oral fixation that jeopardizes many of his past owners' relationship with him, who would get rid of him when he ruined their shoes. While at the pound, an elderly woman gave Wilfred a tennis ball. This also be false due to Wilfred seemingly not actually caring about the tennis ball.
In Uncertainty , it is revealed that when he was younger, Wilfred was adopted by a rich woman and was originally named Lord Charles Beevwelt, or Stinky as a nickname. He ran away for reasons unknown, so his owner cloned him. He was eventually adopted by Jenna Mueller, who renamed him Wilfred, or Wilfy. At the beginning of the series Wilfred is 7 years old 49 in Dog Years.
