DOWNLOAD EBOOKAmerica's habit of supersizing everything from sodas to SUVs hasn't escaped our family dogs, at least according to the marketing world, which nearly always features beautifully-feathered golden retrievers or stately mastiffs rounding out our romanticized ideas of a life well-lived. From a branding standpoint, small dogs allegedly prevent us from being taken seriously: they weaken our images, painting us as lacking the athleticism, the strength, and the powerful personalities to run with the big dogs. Like all stereotypes, however, little truth exists in the outdated idea that big dogs are better dogs, or that small dogs are yappy, snappy, and annoying. More important, oftentimes going small is not merely the wise choice, it's the only choice. Whether you're a big dog lover secretly contemplating a small dog in your future, or you're already a small dog fan, you'll love the way Downward Sizing Dog explores and explodes our outdated understanding of dogs and size. Part narrative interviews and memoir, part meticulously researched guide to the social intelligence and transformative nature of small dogs, Downward Sizing Dog celebrates the powerful canine beings packaged in perfectly-proportioned small-dog frames.
