In her Rolling Stone Cover Story, Sabrina Carpenter explained why she is releasing her new album 'Man's Best Friend' so quickly after 'Short n' Sweet.'

Carpenter took to Instagram Wednesday morning to announce “Man’s Best Friend,” due Aug. 29, along with its sultry (and divisive) cover art featuring the singer on all fours in front of a man pulling her hair. She also posted a close-up image of a dog whose collar is emblazoned with the album title, highlighting the cheeky play on words.
