Darlene Arden
The Irrepressible Toy Dog
Thursday, December 11, 2003, 10 PM Eastern
A Chat Week Event

There is really nothing like a toy dog, as everyone who shares a life with one will tell you. From toy-sized traumas to lion-sized hearts, nothing expresses the spirit of the toy dog like the word "irrepressible."

As part of PetHobbyist.com's annual Chat Week, DogHobbyist.com welcomes Darlene Arden as our guest in a very special chat on toy dogs. Darlene is the author of several popular articles and books, including the seminal work on toy dogs, The Irrepressible Toy Dog.

Darlene is an internationally recognized authority on toy dogs and their care, as well as on general health and welfare issue regarding all canines. She is a long-time member of the Dog Writers' Association of America (DWAA) and has written hundreds of articles and columns for all of the major dog publications. A frequent guest on radio and television programs on the subject of dogs and animal welfare, Darlene is also a judge for the World Canine Freestyle Organization.

Darlene is also the author of the critically acclaimed Angell Memorial Animal Hospital Book of Wellness and Preventive Care for Dogs
