Claudia-Tatiana Hucec was born in Romania, raised under the Italian sun, and now lives surrounded by fur, fluff, and enough pet hair to knit an extra pet. A lifelong animal lover, she’s the proud (and slightly outnumbered) human to two cats and a dog—though if she had her way, her home would look like a Disney movie, complete with spontaneous animal sing-alongs. With a background in criminology and psychology from the Open University, Claudia-Tatiana knows a thing or two about behavior—both human and canine. Her passion for helping new pet owners navigate the whirlwind of puppy parenthood led her to write this ebook, packed with practical advice and the occasional laugh (because if you’re not laughing while your puppy chews your slippers, what are you even doing?). When she's not researching the best chew-proof dog toys or teaching sit-stay etiquette, you can find her drawing, crocheting, or planning her next animal adoption.
