DVD Release - Your New Dog: First Day and Beyond!

November 2007 Issue

Cesar Millan Greetings,

This is a very special Thanksgiving for me. For the first time, my family is traveling from Mexico to celebrate with us. I am very excited to share this American holiday with them. It will also be an opportunity to share the comforts that my success here has brought. And my mom really wants to meet my friend Will Smith, so I am going to ask him if that will be possible. I am really looking forward to their visit.

I am very thankful for the health of my family and my pack, the continued success of Dog Whisperer, and the positive reception of my new book Be the Pack Leader. I want to express my thanks to you - the fans - for your kind words and support. I hope you will take some time this Thanksgiving to appreciate the small things and surround yourself with the love of family and, of course, your dogs!

Happy Thanksgiving!

Cesar Millan

Dog Whisperer Sneak Peek: Ed McMahon!

Heeere's Cesar! Late Show announcer Ed McMahon and his wife Pam have seven dogs, but they didn't know that taking in Wheaton Terrier Gus would push them over the edge. Gus's sweet demeanor is a wolf in sheep's clothing, because they never know when he is going to bite. He has developed some severe aggression toward Ed's assistants and any guests that come to call. Will Cesar be able to assist McMahon's assistants in controlling Gus's aggression?

Also in the November 2nd episode, meet the Swanson family. In April 2005, Nancy was walking beagle Abbey when the neighbors' large dog Sam got loose and came straight for Abbey. Sam had his mouth around her neck and pinned her to the ground. Everyone was frantic. After Sam's owner finally got control of the dog and took him back home, Abbey was left shaking in Nancy's arms. Now the traumatized beagle will go just as far as the next door neighbor's yard, but that's the limit. She stops dead in her tracks, pulls back until she gets free of her collar, and runs straight back home. Can Cesar help the Swansons with their homebound hound?

Then Cesar drops in on the Lerners. It's been two years since anyone has set foot inside the house because of their aggressive Australian Shepherd Vinnie. Can Cesar Millan teach Vinnie how to be the host with most?

Then tune in for some favorites! Click on the episode title for a detailed description.

11/9 - Sonny, Chocolate & Cinamon, and Boo
11/16 - Spike, Jake & Nugget, and Wendell
11/23 - Emily and Nicki

Finding the Right Holiday Boarding Kennel

Some of us who travel during the holiday season may be lucky enough to bring our canine companions along for the ride, but for others, this just isn't possible. Finding a good substitute pack can be tough. Here are a few tips for finding the right kennel, shelter, vet's office, doggie day care, or professional dog-sitters for your pet.

Get recommendations. Ask friends, neighbors, co-workers, vets, groomers, trainers, or other dog professionals you trust. Find two or three facilities that meet your requirements and investigate further.

Visit. Ask to see all the places where your dog will be spending time. Is the facility clean? Does the staff seem competent and compassionate? If you like what you see, set aside a few more hours to be a silent observer and get a sense of their philosophy...

Cesar's Co-Stars: Profiles of Pack Members - Lucy

Ask the Vet“Lucy Needs a Home”

It was a single colorful flyer pinned to a refrigerator door that gave Lucy the pit bull her big second chance. These days you can find her living comfortably at home under the same roof as one of our previous Pack Profiles, Dottie, and Daddy's own three-year-old puppy, Pepito.

But before that, she was living rough on the streets of Anaheim, California.

Found wandering alone (by the husband of the woman who would also eventually find and recover Lucy’s surrogate daughter, Dottie!) Lucy was a mess – skinny, dirty, and weak from having recently given birth to a litter of pups...

Ask the Vet: Chew Toys and Bones

I have a 9 month old Chocolate Labrador named "Choco." He stays outside 24/7 and tends to tear up things in his pen due to teething and probably boredom. I started to give him rawhide bones to help his teething and to keep him from chewing up his dog house and other things. Also, I keep giving him different toys as well. I was told by a friend that rawhide bones aren't good for them, that it's hard for them to digest. Is this true? If so, what else can I do to keep him from tearing up everything while we are at work?

Thanks,
Julie Butler
