In Memoriam
Cesar Millan (The Dog Whisperer) is a resource for and inspiration to many dog lovers world-wide. Last week, his companion Daddy the pit bull died at the age of 16.
Last year I sent a painting of Daddy to Cesar’s Burbank office; his staff put it on display and told me later that Cesar liked it very much. I hope it brings them a little bit of joy, now that Daddy is gone.
Such sweet, sad eyes.
I operate with these dogs and as far as animal behavior goes, I’m a solid believer in nurture and training. I have met Jack Russell Terriers that I would not go around once again, but have never had a awful experience with an American Staffordshire Terrier. If you are talking about their owners- nicely, that’s a distinct story. People are creatures as well, and we have a tendency to every have our personal suggestions about “moral concepts”.
