Founder of International Association of Pet Fashion Professionals, Lauren Darr, commented, “I’ve been looking for a blogger to do a pet fashion wrap-up on a regular basis for a while. After talking to Jody, hearing her background, and reading ‘Bark and Swagger,’ I knew she’d be a wonderful fit.” Added Miller-Young, “When Lauren approached me with this idea, I was so excited. What could be a better forum for sharing my passion for creative and unusual pet fashion than with like-minded pet fashion professionals! I look forward to bringing fabulous and fun fashion to IAPFP readers each month.”
The first “Pet Fashion Wrap-Up” post is scheduled for January 23, 2014 and will continue on a monthly basis on the next to the last Thursday of each month. Her columns will also be a monthly topic of the weekly electronic newsletter starting the same week.
