** spoiler alert **
           Elf Dog and Owl Head by M.T. Anderson and Junyi Wu (Illustrator) (2023) begins with a royal hunt in the Kingdom Under the Mountain from the perspective of a young elfhound. When the prey ends up outside the mountain and the hunt follows, the elfhound is separated and befuddled by a modern human mountain town.

What had begun as a Tolkien inspired middle grade high fantasy, recontextualizes around Clive, his sisters, and their parents. A world wide pandemic (probably COVID, but it's never named) is keeping the children at home, away from school and friends. Clive is desperate for a friend or playmate and finds that in the very confused and somewhat skittish white dog with pointy red ears.
