is a Japanese
light novel series written by
Mamizu Arisawa, with illustrations by Kanna Wakatsuki. The series originally started serialization in volume seventeen of
ASCII Media Works' now-defunct light novel magazine
Dengeki hp on April 18, 2002. Four more chapters were published until the first bound novel of the series was released, though more chapters were later serialized in the magazine. Fourteen main novels, plus two additional
bonus novels with illustrations by Mari Matsuzawa, were published by ASCII Media Works under their
Dengeki Bunko label between January 10, 2003 and December 10, 2008. The series revolves around a
dog goddess named Yoko and her master Keita Kawahira as they fight against various troublesome spirits. Several more inukami besides Yoko also play an important role, most notably the inukami of Kaoru Kawahira.
