Canid Literary & Arts seeks work that challenges us to see the crossroads where the human and dog experiences meet in new and honest ways through both established and emerging voices. The only submission criteria is that the piece either is about or includes dogs.

a tricolor puppy is looking very self-assured. his chin is tilted up a bit and he’s looking at you out of the corner of his eye.

the small pup is contorted into a tangle on a white blanket. his booty is in the air, his pink toebeans on display, and his eyes wide because he’s done the unthinkable. the tip of his tail is in his mouth.

the little black pup with brown eyebrow dots and white feet sits on a wood floor and looks up with wide eyes. his mouth is open because he’s mid-scream.

This is Soybean. He's a little guy with a big personality, and we have a feeling only one of those things is going to change. 12/10 (IG: g.anjang2)

YES!!!!! We can’t wait to read it!

Realising I've not written a story involving dogs, so now I'm sitting and writing a short story for Canid Press
