Difference between a god and a dog, is that I've seen a dog before. I'm not sure that either you or I have ever seen a god.
To use your analogy, if you'd like to bring me every single god you know of to me until you find the right one to show me, be my absolute guest. If instead we're looking for clues as to the where abouts of the "dog", then some characteristics of the beast might be a start.
What characteristics of there of your god? That might set us on the path of discovering some clues to its existence.
If you believe it, question it. If you question it, get an answer. If you have an answer, does that answer satisfy reality? Does it satisfy you? Probably not. For no one else will agree with you, not really.
