Diego the dingo spends the better part of his days in the company of his local friends, trolling the popular Bendigo Beach for tourists and one-night-stands. However, with the near limitless possibilities before him and the sudden reappearance of his ex-boyfriend, Diego finds himself struggling to make up his mind and sort through his conflicting feelings. Is he happy to remain a footloose beach bum with a voracious sexual appetite, or can he throw away his lifestyle and reputation for an old flame?
 
The Dog's Days of Summer was originally an online webcomic, with each week's segment determined by readers' votes. The first half of the story developed as readers directed the main character's actions through a weekly multiple-choice poll. Diego evolved with each new installment and grew to be an easy-going yet indecisive guy, his personality sculpted and shaped by many hands.
 
However, in this conclusion of the online comic, one decision remains that Diego must decide on his own, and he'll need to be ready to accept the sacrifice.
 
The artist duo, known collectively as "Blotch," consists of Kenket (Tess Garman) and BlackTeagan (Teagan Gavet). While both wrote and edited the story, on the artistic side, BlackTeagan sketched the comic, and Kenket inked and colored. Kenket has a Bachelor's degree in Natural History and Scientific Illustration, and BlackTeagan is an animator with specialization in character concept and design.
