It’s not easy not being a dog person.
I once moderated a conversation for The Times between Susan Orlean and Julie Klam, both authors of books about dogs.
“Everybody who reads my book is a dog person,” Klam, whom I also profiled for her memoir, “You Had Me at Woof,” said at one point.
The very bad date in the story “Cat Person” has, of course, two cats.
By contrast, I could see the appeal of dogs if they didn’t need to be trained, didn’t bark, didn’t need to be walked, didn’t shed, didn’t smell, didn’t require washing or grooming.
