Going to the Dogs

If you’re a dog lover, Elias Weiss Friedman has put together a book you will adore. The Dogist features over 1,000 portraits of dogs for total enjoyment. Most of the photos have been shot on the streets of New York. Why? It seems Elias found himself unemployed at age 25, and after being involved in several start-ups with friends, decided to try something on his own. After an enlightening trip to Europe, during which he took pictures of a unique Boxer, he decided to claim the “Dogist” title for his very own. He publishes a blog and has Twitter and Instagram accounts with the same name. The book features dogs of all kinds, some rare breeds, clothed and pampered pooches and rescue dogs. Give a Dog a Bone is a charity Friedman started to help place shelter dogs in homes. Doggone Good! DB
