Experiencing Interruptions?

His dog sleeps by the sea and rides the waves

This story tells of a black dog with faith in humanity. He firmly believes in his faith and thinks that having faith makes him superior to other dogs. By chance, the black dog abandons everything and even attacks his only companion to successfully reach the humans. However, the humans give him a bad life and eventually abandon him. Despite this treatment, he still holds onto his faith and even believes that he has become closer to being human because he has been to the human world. He transforms himself into a human form, causing him to become even more distant from other dogs. But other dogs also begin to take an interest in what humans are really like. The black dog encounters humans again and transforms back into a dog form, wanting to return to the humans once more. But this time, because of the other dogs’ interest in humans, they rush towards the humans in order to replicate the black dog’s successful experience and attack the black dog. In the end, the black dog falls by the sea and is slowly washed away by the waves.
