Just being with dogs, I learned their ways and began to appreciate things from their point of view.

'The Dog Whisperer' to me is a show that had a passion, and it helped me save relationships.

Humans will always tell you the story. Dogs can only tell you the truth. Trust your instincts and listen your dog.

In America, dogs are viewed by their names first, breed second. And dogs live behind walls. It's an unnatural point of view.

Dogs have found themselves in an odd predicament by living with humans. In the wild, dogs don't need humans to achieve balance. They have a pack leader, work for food and travel with the pack. When we bring them into our world, we need to help them achieve balance by fulfilling their needs as nature intended. This takes exercise and discipline before affection, and always maintaining your calm, assertive pack leadership.

I do think there are some dogs - although it's very, very rare - that do have to be kept away from all other dogs and all humans except for the one strong pack leader whom they trust. But I think I've run into less than a handful of dogs that were like that in my entire career.

Any successful corporation, if they adopt the three, they're going to be not just wealthy but they're going to be balanced. A lot of corporations adopt exercise, discipline, no affection. But you must maintain the three, because it's part of what you need. You need physical stimulation, you need mental stimulation and of course you need emotional stimulation.
