So... this manga to date, is the weirdest shoujo manga I've personally read. The romance, situations, and plot are so bizarre, it's amazing that I'm able to walk away from reading this acting like a normal human being. Does this mean this manga is bad and should be avoided? Heck no, I never regretted picking this up.

Being a lover of dogs I just had to try this out. Mostly expected it to be silliness considering the premise. And it does have plenty of laughs. But there's some good emotional content to it as well.
