Dog Whisperer show taking submissions from Portland

I don't know if you know but my wife and I are... well you could say we are "Dog Whisperer" or Cesar Millan junkies. Actually, I take that back, my parents are; retired and with a DVR watching at least two episodes a day. They now claim to have seen all three seasons in just a matter of a few short months.

We have a little doggie named Buddy that needs some rehabilitation and his owners need some training. As Cesar often says, "I rehabilitate dogs and train people. I love what I do!" So, pre-Cesar we thought all along that we just had a problem child. But now we've come to realize that we're the problem parents so-to-speak. We're learning to become calm-assertive pack leaders. A good friend sent us a Craigslist ad that says Cesar was coming to town in February. Well that has come and gone but his website says otherwise.

So we hope to put together a 5 minute video submission to see if he can come help us with Buddy. I better say up front though that I cannot post the submission online due to copyright/legal issues, otherwise I would love to share with you what we sent in. However, if you stop by for a visit some time we would love to show you the video.

So stay tuned. You just may get to see "the Bud" (as we call him) on the small screen and us humiliated because of our poor pack leadership skills.

UPDATE 12/8/2008: We decided against submitting a video because trying to film Buddy at his worst was not only time-sensitive but also we had to borrow a camera to do it. People often wanted their camera back before we could catch him doing bad things.
