“Watch the dogs when you’re down there, David. They’re not like the dogs here.”

That’s no joke, folks. Jennifer and David are free spirited newlyweds who jump at the opportunity to become teachers just South of the Mexican border. When the couple decide to take a few days off in order to peruse the local flora and fauna, they find a bit more than they were looking for.
When I first saw this story was about the Chichimeca or “dog people” I immediately thought of this . . .

but then I remembered it was on tor.com instead of a fanfic site, so I consoled my sad little brain and reminded it that stuff like this . . . .

Dog was a fairly excellent little creeper. Being that it’s so super short I won’t give anything away. I’ll just say there’s a good chance you might want to reconsider your stance if you are a dog person.

I have to give props to karen for her tor.com reviews. I’ve been very vocal of not being a fan of the short story, but I’m slowly coming to the realization that I do appreciate a good short. My complaints stem more from my experience of not enjoying collections of short stories by the same author being thrown together and published as one book or a $2.99 Kindle price point for something that is only 10 or 20 pages.
