         “I could never quite take dogs for granted.
       Why should they delight in our company and
       welcome us home in transports of joy? There
       were so many different shapes, sizes and
       colours, yet they all had the same fundamen-
       tal characteristics. Why? Why?”

                 on dogs at Greenwich’s Bruce Museum of
       Arts and Science.
           “The Nature of Dogs,” on view through Nov. 26, is
          a family-friendly show that draws a circuitous line
            from wolves to man’s best friend and offers a
              dog’s view of the world through a variety of
               sensory, interactive displays. It complements
                 the museum’s “Best in Show: Dogs in Art
                   from the Renaissance to the Present,” an
                     exhibition running through Aug. 27.
