Specifically, it is a book about ‘Man’s best friends’ – their origin-myths, and their place in the world before they were coopted into human society and ideas of pure breeding and dysgenics. The Dogs also imagines a future where dogs develop the power of speech; led by the non-violent UnderDogs and the more radical Der Uberhünd, the animals of the world begin demanding their rights.

I believe that God our father put it in my heart to write you this to help us, as his children, better understand what it truly means to be his children and how we are to walk in our journey as we pass through this world. We are his children and we ought to be letting his glory shine through us to be his light on this dark world. As Jesus said, "No one covers a lamp, but sets it up on a stand so everyone in the house can see". I write this to you, my brothers and sisters, and take a ride with me as we journey through this word on a path that leads us home. God bless you.
