Age: Preschool-1st grade

This self-centered dog is quite the treat as he proclaims his identity in complete defiance of any ownership--except, that is, he being the owner of his man pal. Although we're led to believe this pooch is living on his own, Stein gives little hints that he is not a stray when he's rolling on a rug and chewing on slippers, eventually introducing his owner.

Stein shows that Dog has control in the best possible dog ways. He got a leash for the man because how else is Dog supposed to lead him around? As the dog laps up some ice cream dribbles, Dog 'complains' that "you always have to clean up after them."
