Flight Attendant's Dog

Marley's adoption was one of the riskiest because he was taken in sight unseen, something that I rarely, if ever, recommend. And because he acted like a feral dog, Marley didn't trust humans. It's almost like rescuing an African wild dog, coyote, or a dingo. These animals are unpredictable and lack traits that domestic dogs possess. So, the first thing I knew Marley needed was a walk - a LONG walk. This first step in his becoming a pet will show a bit of who he is and help him act more like a domestic dog.

CESAR,
I JUST WATCHED YOUR GREAT APPRECIATION AND PATIENCE WITH GAVIN. I HAD TEARS IN MY EYES. I WANT TO THANK YOU FOR AN OUTSTANDING JOB. I THINK THE MASTERS OF THE DOG COULD HAVE SHOWN A GREATER APPRECIATION FOR YOUR SUPERB WORK. YOU BROUGHT JOY TO MY WIFE AND MYSELF, FOLLOWING THE RECENT DEATH OF OUR 12 YEAR OLD ROTWEILER NOA.
THANKS CESAR

Ceaser, My Husband and I live in spouthern Illinois in Mt. Vernon, We are proud owners of 2 "Pomeranians" Rambo and Reba. Rambo is more of a "pleaser" and Reba is a " terror". We watch your show on a constant basis. Our problem is when ever my husband has to leave for work in the mornings, rambo goes CRAZY!!!! like a " severe aggression" until my husband pulls out ot the driveway then 2 minutes later he's normal agian... and Reba just does NOT LISTEN at all.. We've used your methods of " walking them both" everyday with "power walks" We play with them to run in yard, Reba runs after moving cars LITERALLY!! and she refuses to obey our commands. We live on a dead end street . When she runs after a car ,we try everything to get her to come to us. she almost had gotten run over with ME tryen to catch her and once we both almost got hit because the driver was an " un carring" person who just did not care if he hit us or not. so now both are on harness leashes when going outside PERIOD!!! When we do walk daily both are on leashes then as well. Reba would rather take a " harsh disapline than to " listen at all. Reba is 12 lb pom and rambo is a much smaller pom than she is.... Both are from totally different liters..... We just dont know what else to do with thier seperate personalities???? Rambo has got his " panic attacks when the husband leaves for work and Reba has her I DONT CARE IF I LISTEN OR GET INTO TROUBLE attitude HELP us pleaseeeee???? We give them both boundries and limitations, but they both have these anxioties..... We just are at our wits end here can you hel;p us???

thank You,
Ellen Benson
