My interview with author MELISSA HOLBROOK PIERSON in Bark magazine!

It was such a pleasure to interview fellow author, dog-lover, and dear friend Melissa Holbrook Pierson about her forthcoming book THE SECRET HISTORY KINDNESS: LEARNING FROM HOW DOGS LEARN (Norton: April 2015) for Bark Magazine. Melissa is a beautiful writer, a consummate journalist, and one of the most interesting and provocative thinkers I know. Her new book is a must-read! Check out this profile--and more--in the latest print edition of Bark.

Check out the latest cover of Bark magazine! (Fall 2013) This is our 75th issue, so it's rather a milestone for us.  All our covers are cute, but this one just kills me. Look at that terrier's face! The cover dog is a rescue, of course.

Appearing in this issue is my review of Mary Oliver's latest collection of poems "Dog Songs." All I did in this review was gush ineloquently about how sublime Mary Oliver's poems are.  What else could I say?

Also in this issue, is a Q&A I did with New York City's only house-call vet, Dr. Jeffrey Levy. Dr. Levy also happens to be a noted veterinary acupuncturist and.....he fronts a pet-rescue themed rock band called "Pet Rox." Their new CD, "Just Sniffing Around" was recently released.
