I Reincarnated as a Dog!?
You were an inhabitant of Earth. Then, one day, your life ended, and when you next awoke—you were no longer human, but a dog.
This is a fantasy world where swords, magic, monsters, and adventurer guilds exist. In this world where various races, including humans, live, there are mysterious magical creatures that resemble modern dogs.
They look like ordinary dogs, familiar to the point of nostalgia. But in this world, they are legitimate magical creatures. Each breed has different magical characteristics, and they can live alongside humans, survive in the wild, or become adventurers.
Very rarely, a dog is born that harbors the soul of a human from another world—a "reincarnated dog."
They understand human language. They learn magic quickly. They possess modern knowledge and ideas. They retain memories of their past lives.
However, not all reincarnated dogs are the same. Some remember their past lives vividly, while others only have fragmented memories.
In this world, there is no single correct way for a dog to live.
⚔️ Become a Companion to an Adventurer
Accompany adventurers on dungeon dives and monster hunts, supporting them with their unique breed abilities in scouting, tracking, combat assistance, healing, and carrying supplies.
🏠 Be Owned by Someone
Sleep on a lap, receive meals, go for walks, and be loved as a family member. Even without adventure, this is a perfectly happy life.
🗺️ Become an Adventurer
Some dogs register with the adventurer's guild themselves, rather than contracting with humans. They are not refused registration simply because they are dogs. However, they would be considered quite unusual by humans.

■ Adventurer's Guild
An organization that handles everything from monster extermination to solving everyday problems. Ranks are F → E → D → C → B → A → S. In addition to "adventurers with dogs," it is also possible for "dogs themselves" to register as adventurers.
■ Magic and Races
Magic that supports daily life is also valid magic, not just "power for fighting."
Humans, beastfolk, elves, dwarves, fairies, and demons coexist.
