Even before he was The Dogist, though, he was \u003ci\u003ea\u003c\/i\u003e Dogist--a fervent dog lover, and an evangelist about the relationship between dogs and humans and the joy this bond brings us in the modern world. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eOver his decades of studying dogs and their people, Elias has arrived at a deceptively simple realization: \u003ci\u003eDogs make people's lives better by making people better. \u003c\/i\u003eDogs improve us. They save us. They give our lives greater meaning and fulfillment. They teach us to become the best versions of ourselves. They help us understand our own identities, deepen our relationships, and remind us of patience, purpose, and commitment. We constantly seek those things in our human life, but so many of the answers are already right in front of us, in our dogs. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThis book weaves together stories of the many dogs Elias has been lucky enough to know, both in his personal life and while doing his Dogist work. Told in a light tone that does not shy away from more serious issues (Elias is not above the occasional sentimental moment or dog pun), this book charmingly explores the ways that dogs are not just our family and our friends but also irreplaceable beings capable of generating boundless love and restoring balance to our lives.\u003cbr\u003eIn an increasingly alienating and divisive world, there is one clear remedy: the one with four legs that rolls over for belly rubs. Dogs can change our lives, and this book might just change yours.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eElias Weiss Friedman\u003c\/b\u003e is a \u003ci\u003eNew York Times\u003c\/i\u003e bestselling author, photographer, producer, and the creator and namesake of the popular online platform The Dogist, which boasts more than ten million followers across platforms.
