Dog Hater's Life with Dog

Mamoru's main job is to handle complaints at the supermarket. Despite this, his boss is lazy, and leaves Mamoru to handle everything. The only thing he looks forward to is his family video calling him during dinner time. One day, his boss asks him to handle complaints about a house with a dog right behind the supermarket. The only problem is… Mamoru can’t stand dogs.

Mamoru was finally able to visit home after a year into his job transfer and the first thing that welcomes him is a dog named Samon. His wife tells him that the children wanted a dog because they felt lonely without him home. Mamoru returns to his job unhappy, but upon returning discovers that a new transfer is expected to arrive at his store.

A few weeks have passed since Samon joined in on the family video call. It seems that Mamoru's family only cares about Samon, which leaves him feeling forgotten. His work life also seems to be troubling. He is given the responsibility of training the new transfer, Moeko, but things aren’t going so smoothly.

The owner of the “dog house”, Gekkou, ignores Mamoru and Moeko, not showing any signs of improvement. Moeko, who is used to dogs, gives Mamoru advice to overcome his fear of dogs. One day, the boss tells him that if he solves the “dog house” issue, he can go back to the main branch, where his family lives.

Mamoru successfully solves the “dog house” problem and decides to go back to the main branch. Kaede is surprised, but Moeko, who was finally opening up to Mamoru, is shocked. Mamoru tells his family that he is coming back, and says that Samon needs to stay in the yard from now on. However, he has some unfinished business before returning to his family...

After Mamoru finally returns, a new problem arises. Samon is getting bigger each day and is completely defiant to Mamoru. His other family members are busy with their own business, leaving Mamoru and Samon alone together. Moeko, who had just recently adopted a dog from the “dog house”, gives Mamoru some advice via video call on how to deal with Samon.
