Everyone with a dog has, at some point, questioned whether they’re raising and caring for them properly. Some go to the extent, in advance, of reading up on their breeds, which is something that should be done. They learn ahead with respect to mannerisms, temperament, likes and dislikes, and how best to care for their pet. Others will go the route of getting their furry friend from a Texas shelter, which doesn’t necessarily provide ample lead-time for research but doesn’t make it impossible. With the help of some trained professionals, you can often make the right moves in advance of any major “screw-ups” and ensure both you and your pet are happy and healthy. That’s where Cesar Millan, the Dog Whisperer, comes in. A dog trainer with more than two decades of experience, he’s well known for being the “Dog Whisperer” (from his series that ran from 2004 to 2012). He’s recently identified the biggest mistake that dog owners make.
