New Yorker cartoonist Jeremy Nguyen's first solo book is out and it's called Can I Pet Your Dog? It is a colorful compendium of offbeat strategies for petting other people's dogs. I purchased a copy online through the cartoonist's website and sent him a photo of my dog Minty whose portrait Jeremy kindly sketched in the book. Not a bad deal for $15 postpaid. I added another $10 for Pup: A Zine of Dog Cartoons. I'm generally not much of a zine person, but fill one with dog cartoons and I'm not going to say no.

| Jeremy Nguyen Pup: A Zine of Dog Cartoons and Can I Pet Your Dog? The book is signed and paw-printed. It includes an original drawing of my dog Minty.  |
Like the book, the zine is signed by Jeremy and pawprint-signed by a cavapoo acquaintance of his named Lava, the one on the book's cover. 
Note: The very offer I took advantage of is still available on Jeremy's website here.
Minty is an eleven-year-old maltipoo. Here is her reference photo. Would you like to pet her?
