Description: Katharine Mershon examines the unacknowledged religious underpinnings of stories about dogs, revealing deeply rooted cultural assumptions about who can be saved and how redemption ought to occur.
Review Quotes: An urgent, necessary read for those seeking to understand our enduring intimacy with animals--a sacred bond that Mershon fearlessly examines.--Colin Dayan, author of With Dogs at the Edge of Life and Animal Quintet
