What is a Dog Whisperer – Pet tip 215
These days you hear a lot about the term ‘dog whisperer’ and most people associate the term with one particular dog trainer, Cesar Milan. Many people think that he created the term when in fact this is false. The term dog whisperer is actually a term borrowed from horse training, where certain trainers or horse whisperers seemed to be able to get horses to calm down and accept training or accept a rider on their backs. Their methods were often ‘quiet’ (as opposed to more traditional punitive techniques) to an observer as these trainers seemed to get results from quiet whispers. These days though, the term has been diluted and many people use the term loosely.

My beloved Chinook. You were with me for only 7 years, but together, we beat the odds! At 2 years only, we had to have you operated for bladder stones, but it took more than 4 years to have them come back. During that time, we took every moment together to play, laugh, eat and sleep. I know you loved Agility more than anything and I know that in Heaven, you now have all the jumps, a-frames, tunnels and fields to run your little legs off.
You will always be in my heart and none other will be like you. I miss you terribly, but I know I did the right thing. The last few days we had together, I know you were making every effort to follow me everywhere, but you just weren't feeling very well.
I will remember your smilling face, because no matter what, you always had your little beaming face looking up at me. I just couldn't say no to you... ever! You brought sunshine in my life, warmth and affection. You always knew how to comfort me or make me laugh. If I could turn back the wheels of time, I would keep you by my side ...forever!
Until we meet again my little precious guy.
