Dog's Best Friend by Mark Derr

In 'Dog's Best Friend', Mark Derr provides an account of the close relationship between dogs and humans. His focus is on the cultural aspects of this relationship, in particular on the over breeding of dogs to satisfy the human ego, which he claims often undermines the mental and physical health of the dogs.
Mark Derr is the author of Some Kind of Paradise, a critically acclaimed social and environmental history of Florida; The Frontiersman: The Real Life and the Many Legends of Davy Crockett, and the forthcoming A Dog's History of America. His articles have appeared in the Atlantic Monthly, Natural History, Audubon, and the New York Times. He lives in Miami Beach.
