Inu wo Kau
Description
Five short stories: - Raising a Dog (Inu wo Kau) - And Then, Caring for a Cat (Soshite Neko wo Kau) - View of the Backyard (Niwa no Nagame) - Three People's Days (Sannin no Hibi) - Promised Land (Yakusoku no Chi)
The first one tells the death of an old dog, hence the title. The last one is a bit similar to a later work of the author, Kamigami no Itadaki.
Raising a Dog won the Shogakukan Manga Award (examination committee special) in 1992.
