One of our favorite shows on television right now is The Dog Whisperer with Cesar Millan.
I think I surprised some people one day when I put on my Facebook status that I was feeling calm and assertive and how much Cesar would approve. We have two cats. We don’t have a dog. Well, that doesn’t mean I’m not the pack leader! 
It’s true…we’re madly in love with Cesar’s show!
We have them queue’d up on TiVO (and it appears to be working…), and Claire loves watching them with us. It’s a good, clean, family show. What’s not to love about balance, calm assertiveness and confidence?
There is just something so empowering about his show. Everything he says just makes so much sense, and it’s hard to remember sometimes that he’s talking about dogs and not toddlers. (He “rehabilitates dogs and trains people” after all…)
So, if you’re feeling unbalanced or stressed, take some time out of your evening to watch Cesar in action. It’s amazing how much better you’ll feel. And, if you have a toddler (or a spouse), your biggest challenge will be not using Cesar’s signature “chhht” on them.

We sometimes watch Ghost Whisperer and we don’t have a ghost. But, seriously? There’s a show called Dog Whisperer?
Yes, there is! And, it’s awesome (if you couldn’t tell that from my post). It’s on the National Geographic Channel. Check your local listings. (I’ve always wanted to say that.)
