It's raining cats and dogs.
Yup.
Grandma!
I can't believe it! They were out of umbrellas.
Oh dear.
Excuse me.
If you like, you can have this one.
Huh? Oh, but...
Hm? Will you be okay without it?
Yes.
I won't be needing it now.
Please take me home
Is that... a dog?
With You and the Rain
Episode 1: Rainy Days
Please take me home
I'm easy to keep!
I'm sorry. I can't—
Want to come to my place?
Let's see...
I should dry you off before letting you in, but will you stay still?
Wait there.
Good.
Hello?
Hey! What's up?
Oh, sorry, Dad. Called the wrong person.
This rain's intense, huh? You okay—
Hello? Teru?
Hey, Sis. What's up?
I had a question.
Shoot.
I think I brought home an abandoned dog.
Huh? Are you unsure if it was abandoned or unsure it's a dog?
Both, I guess?
What? Well, I'm not exactly sure what you mean,
but for now, just give it some food and water.
Will dog food from the convenience store be okay?
Yeah, should be fine.
If that's a hassle, just feed it some boiled meat or whatever.
Okay.
Oh, it's not a puppy, is it?
What kind of dog is it?
It's folding it up.
A "folding" what? Never heard of it.
It's dexterous.
What? "Dexterous"?
Don't worry about it.
Anyway, make sure you take it to a clinic.
They'll tell you what to feed it.
Okay, thanks.
You have a lot of tricks up your sleeve.
Come with me.
Come on in.
Here. This is for you.
Uh...
Write on this.
Thank you
Thank
you
You're welcome.
You really are a talented dog.
You must be hungry.
I'll go get something for you to eat.
Please take me home

How old's the dog?
Good question. It was abandoned so I brought it home.
I see. Then, how big is it?
About this big.
Sounds like a small dog.
In that case, I recommend this one.
My little munchkin also loves it.
Thank you very much.
"My little munchkin," huh?
I'm back.
Do you like it?
Delish
Good. I'm glad.
I need to tidy up around here.
Not for you.
Oh, yeah. I need to take you to the clinic as soon as possible.
Tomorrow, we'll go to the clinic for a checkup and shots, okay?

Thank you for seeing us.
Yes! Welcome!
It's your first time, isn't it?
Is it a doggy? A kitty?
Are you a sweet koala? Just kidding.
It's an abandoned dog.
What?
I took it home yesterday, and brought it here for a checkup and shots.
Ah, I see.
I'm a dog
Please be gentle
Let's see... For this one...
We'll go ahead and...
give it the big one.

Come back for regular checkups.
Okay.
I'm gonna throw this.
You're such a good dog.
Lots of rollers today.
There, there.
There, there. Aw...
There, there. All right.
There, there. Huh?
Hey. You're not a cat.
I'm a cat
Cats don't use cue cards.
I'm sorry.
That one's mine.
Oh, really?
I only brought it home yesterday.
It ran off suddenly.
I guess I need a leash for this dog.
What? Um, that's a...
It's a dog.
A dog?
Yes.
Please don't run off like that.
It's time to go.
Hey, miss. That "dog" probably isn't...
Dog
You can't be a dog, too.
Seems it's not just cats.
You're a dog person, too.
Y-Yes. Well, they're just both so cute, right?
I have to go now.
Dog
Well...
Dog
I'm sure it's fine.
Dog
I guess that's all I've got today.
What do you do for work?
For work?
Then, what's your "work"?
Making masks with leaves
Masks?
Is it funny?
It is.
So what do you do?
I'm a novelist.
What do you think?
Is it time for a bath?
I'll take a bath
Is it good?
It doesn't mind getting wet.
Take that.
How about this?
You okay with this?
It seems like it.
I'm tired. That was a lot of work.
All right.
What's up?
You want water? Is that it?
Here you go.
I just dried you.
Is it scary without the lights?
Were you abandoned?
Then, where did you come from?
That makes me wonder where I came from.
Here you go.
Where do we come from? Where do we go?
The eternal questions, huh?
Right now, all I can say is...
Here's to a good start.
I like the darkness. And I like the rain.
How about you?
Me too
I'm glad you like it, too.
Me too
