Why a cartoon book about dogs?

Tail Waggin’ Howlers was born from two daily rituals in my little corner of Fernandina Beach. First, sipping coffee on my porch, Wall Street Journal in hand, watching dogs parade their humans down the street like four-legged royalty. Second, strolling through our historic town and seeing dogs drag their humans into stores, restaurants, and random social encounters. Let’s be real: the dogs run the show.Cartooning has always been my way of distilling the chaos of life into something simple—black ink on white paper. I’ve been inspired by a lifetime of cartoon collections: New Yorker anthologies (the boxed set, plus dozens of smaller topics and the individual artists), Calvin and Hobbes (yes, I own the boxed set, plus a handful of smaller titles), Herblock’s political jabs, and a wild 1908 edition of Mutt and Jeff. If you stumble across an odd cartoon book in a dusty bookstore, text me. I might beg you to grab it for me, Venmo at the ready.I’ve been cartooning since forever—sometimes for money, sometimes for friends, sometimes for newspapers like Florida Today and USA Today. So when it hit me that dogs are basically running a shadow government in our town, I decided to capture the hilarity in a cartoon book. Thirty days, thirty cartoons. Done. My wife called it “cute,” which usually sends me into an existential crisis, but this time, I thought she might be onto something.So here we are. Tail Waggin’ Howlers is for dog lovers, people lovers, or anyone who’s ever been dragged down the street by an enthusiastic canine. You can grab the softbound version on Amazon for $15, or treat yourself to the hardbound edition for $29—it’s coffee table-worthy.Buy it here.
