Pugs in Public
Editorial Reviews Book 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 caf.
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. Even the Bishop of New York, the Right Reverend Richard F. Grein, appears in full ecclesiastical dress with his adored pug Bruno.
