     Her popularity, notes Copeland, seems to have been all but eclipsed when Marley bounded onto the scene. "Some very fine dogoirs have been published since then, all of them exploring the complex and intense relationship between dogs and their human companions. It wasn't long before the popularity of dog books opened the category for other animals."

     "The Puppy Diaries," based on a popular online column Ms. Abramson wrote for The Times from July 2009 to May 2010, is her account of the first year with a beautiful but predictably high-energy golden retriever.
