Unnatural Selection

About this item

Teddy Miles isn't your average dog. Raised on a diet of puppacinos, pupplements, and gluten-free treats, he's convinced he's just as human as his 3,000 Insta followers. That is until his doting owner Maggie is mysteriously drawn away, leaving Teddy in the care of others and his grip on reality unraveling. As Teddy digs for answers about Maggie's whereabouts, he unearths uncomfortable truths about his own identity – truths that challenge everything about his mollycoddled existence, from his designer sweaters and monthly BarkBox subscription to his deep-seated fear of rain and mud. As his carefully curated world crumbles around him, Teddy must confront the ultimate question: is he really the sophisticated human he believes himself to be, or just a confused little dog? Satirical yet tender, Unnatural Selection explores the booming trend in pet humanization with heart, humor, and an adorably unreliable narrator.
