WE GIVE OUR HEARTS FOR DOGS TO TEAR
by Alston Chase
This book is an eloquent tribute to the dogs we love, and a reflection on mortality, the limitations of life, and the final triumph of the spirit.
Chase sees the threat to dogs and people in terms of the decline and in some cases the utter defeat of rural life as such. The rise of the social forces supporting unbridled urbanization, and of dog breeders who see dogs as creatures to be judged by conformation rather than ability are dealt with frankly. At a time when dog "breeding" increasingly follows the whims of fashion, with attendant threats to the futureof dogs, the work of Alston Chase is of magisterial concern.
