Celebrity Pet Expert Andrea Arden Offers Tips for Presidential 'First Pup'

TEWKSBURY, Mass., Feb. 11 /PRNewswire/ -- Now that the Obamas are getting settled in the White House, their daughters' long-promised new dog is sure to join the family soon. And you don't need to look any further for an expert on the soon to be adopted new 'First Pup'!

Celebrity pet expert Andrea Arden, dog trainer to stars like Norah Jones, Robert De Niro and Conan O'Brien, and star of the new Animal Planet hit show, "From Underdog to Wonder Dog," is available to share her thoughts on training a newly adopted dog, whether it's a puppy or older animal. Her tips and techniques from how to assimilate into a new home to what's the best diet, are sure to help dogs of all kinds live longer, happier, healthier and well-behaved lives.

"The family's first year with a new puppy or dog is full of new and exciting experiences, but can be a challenge for pet parents who aren't well prepared, even if they do live in the White House," says celebrity pet expert, Andrea Arden. "It's important to understand the development process of puppies and assimilation techniques for adopted pets. The best way to ensure success is to establish good routines, like making exercise a part of a puppy's daily routine and teaching them good manners. Nutrition is important, too. I recommend Wellness Natural Pet Food, as I feed it to my own dogs."
