Teenage slacker Keita Kawahira is the descendent of a long line of Inukami (benevolent spirits with a dog-like appearance) tamers, but he seems to lack the necessary ability and has been forsaken by his family. One day, he meets a cute Inukami named Yoko, who, at first glance, looks graceful, obedient, and beautiful ... but upon forging a contract with her, Keita discovers that Yoko is a wild and mischievous Inukami that no one has ever been able to conrol. Can Keita prove his worth and tame her, or will she prove too much for the frisky teen to handle?"--Page 1 of cover, volume 1
