I adore animals! Before mommyhood, I was a professional dog-trainer, sport horse competitor and animal behavior consultant. During a stint as a volunteer for the Delta Society as a Pet Partners Animal Evaluator and Animal-Assisted Therapy Volunteer Trainer, I discovered the science behind what I already knew to be true: animals can be very good for you!

My daughter and I feature a daily collection of photos that elicit the most awwws and hahahas per pixel. View hundreds of cute, funny, beautiful animal pictures at Puppies Are Prozac. (Note: I use ad revenue generated from our site to support non-profit animal rescue groups and to help defray the costs I incur for doing volunteer foster care for my local shelter.)
