ABC’s Primetime Live featured a story about a California festival called “Puggo de Mayo” and The New York Times’ recent piece on the pug phenomenon. . .they conquered the art world when Sotheby’s hosted “The Pug Tea” prior to the auction of the Duke and Duchess of Windsor’s estate, which included many valuable pieces from their collection of pug paintings and decorative objects. Celebrity pet photographer Jim Dratfield has compiled a witty album of pug shots, matched with timeless quotations and witty captions from “Litter Pug” and “Pugnacious” to “Pugs and Kisses” and “Sex, Pugs, and Rock and Roll.” Cute costumes and whimsical props and settings capture the roguish essence of the pug in a wealth of clever settings, making Pug Shots the definitive homage to a dog that almost defies description–and can’t be resisted by dog lovers of any age.
