Overview

Wilson the Pug is the apotheosis of the breed dog lovers cannot get enough of yet can't buy books about. Needless to say, he is irresistible - but Wilson is also a descendant of Chinese philosopher Lao-Tzu's beloved companion, Pug-tzu, and, as such, has a great deal of wisdom to share. Owner and photographer Levine manages to capture Wilson's everyday Taoist lifestyle. Accompanied by Taoist quotations and with his adorably expressive face and trademark yin-yang coat, Wilson shows us a simple, profoundly spiritual picture through the eyes of a small dog.
