While Cujo can be considered the villain, in truth, he is simply a poor, sick animal who was treated poorly and got rabies. Cujo is a rabid Saint Bernard that kills its owner and then terrorizes a trapped woman and her child. One of the most infamous dog villains is Cujo, the star of an early book by Stephen King. Obviously, there are tales where the dog is presented as the bad guy, but more often than not, they are tools used by evil men or sometimes just tragic victims. Horror novels have long included man’s best friend, and the furry buddies often become such an integral part of the story that the book would not be nearly as good without them. While there have been plenty of novels featuring dogs, many offering warm stories of the unique man-animal connection, there is one genre that has taken a different twist on canine characters.
