We interrupt our regularly scheduled programming at 7th and Montana to deliver a Shout-Out to The Dog Whisperer. Cesar Millan, if you're out there, we need you. Gordo the Wonder Dog, the lovable pooch rescued from death's door by Robb and Robin, needs help. You see, Gordo can't bear to be away from Robb or Robin ... but this is more than just separation anxiety. He gets so nervous whenever they're not around that he bolts -- does whatever he can to escape from whoever is looking after him and runs off to find Robb or Robin. Some months ago, he nearly reached the Freeway in an effort to find Robb, and the whole neighborhood mounted a search and rescue mission. Last week, he literally leaped off an overhang of a three-story building to find Robin, breaking a bone in his paw, cracking three ribs and ruining a canine tooth in the process. Now, his leg is in a 'doggie cast' and he's doped-up on pain killers. If that doesn't call for a little Dog Whispering, I don't know what does ...!
It was a sad day at 7th and Montana today as word spread the Charlie, the Irascible Sheepdog, has been "rejected" by Dog Whisperer Cesar Millan. The story begins several weeks ago when Neighbor Richard discovered that Millan -- known far and wide as the "Dr. Phil" of the canine set -- would be shooting his award-winning TV show in Santa Monica. If ever there was a dog in need of the Whisperer, it's Charlie. His Jeckyl and Hyde personality keeps the whole neighborhood on edge. One minute he'll seem perfectly at ease and the next, without warning, he'll go for the jugular with other dogs. Expensive trainers, weeks in Doggie Bootcamp, soothing aromatherapy, bribery with treats ... you name it, Richard has tried it. So, why did the Dog Whisperer reject Charlie? Apparently, before Millan will see you, you have to send him a videotape of your dog behaving badly. Who in their right mind would deliberately put another dog in harm's way just to capture footage of Charlie attacking it? Cesar: If you're out there, I have a few choice words for you and I'm not exactly whispering: "Et tu, Brute ...?!?"
