The Dogs of Central Park

 "Central Park attracts all varieties of lively New Yorkers: joggers circling the Reservoir, cyclists zooming between tourists, sunbathers catching rays on the Great Lawn, kids frolicking at Heckscher Playground. But it wasn't the people who most fascinated photographer Fran Reisner when she visited the park on a spring day in 2008. 'What I saw as I crested the first hill on my path was unforgettable: dogs everywhere!' Reisner writes in her new book The Dogs of Central Park (out in May from publisher Rizzoli). The playful pets 'romped gleefully like children,' she writes, 'and I sensed that if you listened hard enough you could almost hear them laughing.' Here, an excerpt of portraits from Reisner's book, starring pets in the park."
