Texts from Dog II: The Dog Delusion

Dog is a bulldog with a phone, or at least his owner insists that he is. Through a stream of text messages, Dog reports on his efforts to keep the neighbourhood safe, including his feuds with the postman and his longtime rival, the cat, a campaign that has so far left several televisions and a patio door in pieces. He also takes on a secret identity as BatDog, pursues romances with pillows, and runs into squirrel gangs and fetch sessions that go badly wrong. The exchanges are full of bickering and affection, like the bond between a man and his dog. Anyone who has ever talked to a pet while alone in the house will recognise the situation, and may think twice about leaving the dog home for the day.
