The Dog Whisperer
cjwood:
we can learn many things from our dogs (or cats, etc., but especially dogs). things which they do, and how they interact with us and other dogs, many times are exercises in the good fruit of the Spirit. i read a sign at a vets office recently that said, "dogs will love you even when you don't love yourself."

Isn't it liberating when someone calls you on your behavior with Love? I'm always in awe when someone "gets me" when I'm lost and confussed. Dave I love this show also and I don't have dogs.

One thing that I REALLY like about Cesar is when he takes a dog that is under a death sentence
and makes it into a good dog - Pit Bulls and Rottweilers seem to be a specialty of his. These dogs
have such a bad reputation yet HE works with them very effectively.

Yep. He came to save sinners. And like our Heavenly 'Pack Leader', he doesn't give up until he's succeeded. Not one will be lost.
He also doesn't put much store in "Kiss of Death" dog lovers. Or "technique over attitude" (religion over Spirit).
Hmmm...I wonder what No Touch, No Talk, No Eye contact has to do with our 'walk'? No matter...whatever He decides is fine with me.
Anyways...I'm glad I'm not completely "out there" all by myself with the NatGeo on. ;D

The problem w/Pitt bulls and Rotties is the same problem you have with bad kids. the only difference is they are dogs and considered a perishable commodity. People don't train their dogs, they encourage bad behaviors, don't socialize and have bad breeding... all these factors create unstable animals. Blame the deed not the breed. Not all Pitts or Rotties are vicious animals. That's one thing I like about Ceasar, he takes the worst cases (like Christ) and shows that they can serve a better purpose. Christ takes the worst of the worst and calls them. Obviously Caesar isn't Christ or Christ like, just a interesting parallel to how he performs/trains up the dogs. Would you believe that Dachshunds, JRT and Labs, Golden Retrievers are high on the list of fatal bites to children moreso than Rotties. Pitt Bulls unfortunately are put in extreme environments due to fighting rings... the environment places a huge part in how a dog turns out. The breeds themselves are not bad. Pitts have a very honorable history until mankind used them and made them into vicious unpredictable creatures.... the same as they do with everything else. Dobermans used to be the evil breed in the 70's. Thankfully, breeders have bred out allot of the aggression in dobermans. But people still fear them because they are portrayed as vicious. They are the biggest babies in my experience. I'm not a big fan of Rotties. They are cute but not my style.
