Description
The Love Affair That Changed America By Mark Cushing Penguin, 2020 In the last two decades, pets have become an integral part of American life. From their humble beginnings as backyard companions to their current status as beloved family members, the rise of pet ownership has been a seismic shift in the country's culture and society. This book tells the story of this transformation, exploring the economic, media, legal, political, and social factors that have driven it. The author, founder of the Animal Policy Group, provides an insider's perspective on the growth of the pet industry, examining the ways in which pets are acquired, cared for, and protected. He also delves into the complexities of pet healthcare, revealing both the truth and myths surrounding large-scale breeders.
