The Dog

Leroy Barnes is a blue-collar worker whose life is disrupted by the arrival of Mr. Brewster and his barking dog, a German Shepherd. Leroy's routine walks to the Quick Stop Market become a source of anxiety as the dog repeatedly harasses him, both on the street and at night, disturbing his sleep and affecting his work performance at Fred's Gas station.

The escalating tension between Leroy and the dog leads to confrontations with Brewster, who is unyielding about his pet's behavior. The situation worsens when the dog's presence becomes mobile in the back of Brewster' pickup truck. In this way, the dog now follows Leroy around town and making him feel unsafe everywhere. Leroy's frustration and sleeplessness culminate in a drastic decision: he kidnaps Brewster to teach him a lesson.

This is a short filled with delicious dark humor.
