🦮So pleased that Collared is out in the world! 🐕. Big thanks to everyone at @ProfileBooks (esp @JonPetreDish for wrangling words and images) and @pew_literary (esp @doujohyou) for making this happen. Big thanks too @LivUniHistory @ROH_Indies and @wellcometrust. #dogs #history.
From the forests of medieval Europe, where greyhounds chased down game for royalty, to the frontlines of twentieth-century conflicts, where dogs carried messages, this is the story of how we made the modern dog. #Collared is out now 🐶. @SniffThePastDog

Things are awful personally and globally right now, but this was a fun afternoon that prompts me to annouce on here that I have a new book coming out in Nov. Collared: How We Made the Modern Dog. Thanks to Imo (cakes) and Plum and Wilfie (lurcher vibes)
A pawfect day at the office 🐾. We had a wonderful time with author Chris Pearson, taking proofs of #Collared round to booksellers with some very persuasive canine salesmen in tow 📚. Collared: How We Made the Modern Dog is a history of man's best friend, out this November 🐶
