The Big World According to Little Hunterman by Hunter Lassal:
Total Introduction 03: Who’s Who in Hunterman-Land?
Little Hunterman
Little Hunterman is the illustrated doggie version of a rather shy and risk-averse Parson Russell terrier named Hunter.
Little Hunterman has a keen sense of order. Rules were made to be followed: Garbage belongs in the trash can, croissants belong only to him, rats are for hunting, and everything should be the same way tomorrow as it was yesterday, and the day before yesterday, and the day after tomorrow.
This way, you know exactly where you stand, clearing the path for righteous doggie-consternation when things turn out differently than expected.
Flynn
Flynn, a rubber duck, had his tail chewed off by a young and rather overexcited Hunterman a few years back. Since then, for fear of sinking, Flynn has been terrified of anything resembling water, avoiding any contact with the wet stuff — a fact that makes body hygiene rather challenging.
After accepting responsibility for his actions, Hunterman not only became Flynn’s best friend and protector but also started carrying the little rubber duck around whenever they went out.
Due to his smelliness, Flynn’s place is on Hunterman’s tail, thus as far away from the sensitive dog's nose as possible.
Flynn can be an arrogant and self-absorbed little rascal, but we all love him dearly.
Lassal-human
Lassal-human is an engineer turned artist.
A few years back, while attempting to take more breaks from sitting and working non-stop at her desk, she got to know a little Parson Russell terrier and fell madly in love with him.
While she used to work for big international commercial agencies and corporations, she currently works pretty much for Little Hunterman alone.
With Little Hunterman in tow, her life has gotten much more complicated but, ah, so extraordinarily more rewarding!
Tony-human
Tony-human is an architect and Lassal-human’s partner-in-crime.
Together, they share the worries and joys that come with having a Little Hunterman.
While Lassal-human is the stern one who insists on being the leash leader, Tony-human calmly and without fail allows Hunterman to wrap him around his little paws — and to pull him along.
Hunterman loves him dearly for this.
(And he also loves him for the zombie chases and extra croissants.)
