About PuppyLovePrincess
I've loved furry, winged, and finny critters for as far back as I can remember, and I've been working professionally with animals for over a decade. In addition to training dogs, I also train new trainers, and work as a naturalist, too (primarily teaching preschool environmental education and K-5 nature science workshops.) Though my schedule is always busy, it's also always fun! My blog serves to keep clients, friends, family (& random curious visitors) connected with positivity-based tips and musings of the pup, planet, & preschooly variety.Website: http://puppylovepreschool.blogspot.com/
