"Animal House Style is like curling up with an old friend (preferably four-legged): it's warm and cozy and kind of comforting.And it won't drool on you. Much.
"Julia Szabo happily (and quite successfully) helped me in my quest to find a home for a dog that my girlfriend and I had found abandoned by the side of the road. Julia helped us without hesitation and with all good feelings. That spirit is on every page of Animal House Style--a most helpful guide to enriching your home and making it more comfortable for both you and your pet. Enjoy!"
--Eric Stoltz (and Poppy)
