Arseniy Popov

Anton never had an owner, but he was always afraid of people.

Yes, you read that correctly. Anton Shastun is a dog hybrid living in a world where hybrids and humans exist. Humans were undoubtedly considered superior to their pets, just like with animals or serfdom. Rarely did we encounter kind and understanding owners who respected and cared for their "pets," but in most cases, humans merely exploited the hybrids' labor, citing "worldly norms. "
One day, when Anton was spending time in the shelter's cage once again, the director announced the arrival of a new person, someone's future owner. Everyone whined and hid in corners, because no one wanted to be condemned to eternal torment within the walls of the owner's house, where they treated already defenseless creatures so harshly.

A handsome young man walked through the door, smiled, glanced around the room, and hid his hands behind his back. A spark of amusement and excitement flickered in his blue eyes.
The man, later identified as Arseniy Popov, paced from cage to cage, the director squirming beside him, explaining everything about each one. Ars was unlikely to be listening. His gaze fell on a short, 20-year-old boy sitting in the corner of his cage. His loyal green eyes stared at him fearfully.
Popov came closer to this very cage, smiled and leaned closer.

• Who's a good boy here?
