Menacing Dog's (Japanese: キョウハクDOG's, Hepburn: Kyōhaku Dog's) is a Japanese manga series written and illustrated by Shaa, the same illustrator of the Haruka Nogizaka's Secret light novel series.[1] The manga was originally serialized in MediaWorks' Dengeki Teioh magazine, but after the magazine became defunct, it began serialization in Dengeki G's Festival! Comic, renamed Menacing Dog's: Another Secret (キョウハクDOG's -Another Secret-, Kyōhaku Dog's -Another Secret-). The manga was serialized in the two magazines between the November 2005 and January 2012 issues. A total of four tankōbon volumes were published under the Dengeki Comics imprint.[2][3][4][5] Infinity Studios licensed Menacing Dog's in North America,[6] and Menacing Dog's: Another Secret's chapters are digitally serialized in English on Kadokawa's Comic Walker website.[7]
