Today’s designer pups — Labradoodles, Puggles, Cock-A-Poos — don’t poke their wet, hybrid noses into the pages of this anthology. These 23 tales are about canines, both mutts and pure-breds, that are not particularly fashionable. Familiar stories like Albert Payson Terhune’s “Biscuit” (1932)and Eric Knight’s “Lassie Come-Home” (1938) can be found here, but the more modern choices are also brilliantly unfashionable. They include a puppy dropped at the doorstep in Richard Ford’s story “Puppy,” a boy with a Rover in Arthur Miller’s “Bulldog” and Bobbie Ann Mason’s feeble dog Grover Cleveland in her story “Lying Doggo.”
