Product Description
Pugs love people and they love to socialize; and the people who love them rarely leave them behind. Uninterested in herding, hunting, or howling, these small, odd-looking creatures have no higher purpose in life than to be entertaining and companionable. Pugs in Public is a unique tribute to a breed of dog that inspires near slavish devotion in its owners and perpetual amusement in all observers.Meet Tuck, who roams his owner's prestigious art gallery all day -- except during his three o'clock break for biscuits at The Four Seasons Hotel. Mickey reviews portfolios at one of New York City's hottest modeling agencies; Buddy is the quality control specialist at a bicycle shop; and Pee Wee is the de facto maitre d' at a chic cafe. Pug owners are a rare breed of their own, and this book also turns the spotlight on them: New Yorker cartoonist Victoria Roberts poses with Pogo, her best friend and artist's model; and the Bishop of New York, the Right Reverend Richard F. Grein, appears in full ecclesiastical dress with his adored pug Bruno. Pugs in Public is a special look at a special pet -- and the people who can't live without them.
