Stray Dog was Hal Crook's sixth album as a leader. It was recorded live at Club AS220 in Providence, Rhode Island, where Crook's band held a recurring Tuesday night gig for several years. Crook plays his signature "Trom-o-Tizer," which consists of a trombone with a small microphone directing its signal through a digital effects unit, allowing him to access various effects including chorus, delay, and a 5-voice digital harmonizer.

<span class="mw-page-title-main">Street dog</span> Unconfined dogs that live in cities

Street dogs, known in scientific literature as free-ranging urban dogs, are unconfined dogs that live in cities. They live virtually everywhere cities exist and the local human population allows, especially in the developing world. Street dogs may be stray dogs, pets which have strayed from or are abandoned by their owners, or may be feral animals that have never been owned. Street dogs may be stray purebreds, true mixed-breed dogs, or unbred landraces such as the Indian pariah dog. Street dog overpopulation can cause problems for the societies in which they live, so campaigns to spay and neuter them are sometimes implemented. They tend to differ from rural free-ranging dogs in their skill sets, socialization, and ecological effects.
