A Matter of Breeding: a Biting History of Pedigree Dogs and How the Quest for Status Has Harmed Man's Best Friend
Michael Brandow
A provocative look at the ?cult of pedigree? and an entertaining social history of purebred dogs
So-called ?purebreds? are the mainstay of the dog industry, and social critic Michael Brandow argues that these aren?t markers of time-honored traditions but rather commercial inventions of the nineteenth century that were marketed as status symbols to a growing middle class. Combining social history and consumer studies with sharp commentary, this book reveals the sordid history of the dog industry and shows how our brand-name pets pay the price with devastatingly poor health.
