Publisher's Synopsis
Man meets Dog and they start talking to each other. The man is not very surprised hearing Dog speaking human language. Dog tells he is a Loose-running, which means he is utterly autonomous and has no pack, house nor owner. Man, who is kind of exiled from society, introduces himself as Stuck-up.
They trek through nightly countryside, towns and dikes in search of the sea. Dog has heard that sea-dogs, as seals are called in the Netherlands, live as Loose-running in the wild near the sea.
They have long talks during their wanderings and meals, and start to comprehend more and more of the other species. They both find sort of destinies, which differ immensely.
