Dog Whisperer's pit bull "Daddy" dies

| | Comments (1) |
The ever-calm and cool Daddy and his owner, famed Dog Whisperer Cesar Millan, gave many of us a different view of pit bulls. 

Daddy died last week at the age of 16. 
 
There's a nice tribute on Cesar's web page:
 
He lived each day of those 16 years happy and fulfilled as Cesar's right-hand-"man," helping to shape the behavior of entire generations of dogs by showing them the way to balance. He stood as champion for calm-submissive pit bulls everywhere, and was instrumental in helping to repair their image as violent, savage, uncontrollable beasts. He successfully battled cancer and weathered chemotherapy, and even got the opportunity to present at the 56th Annaul Create Arts Emmy Awards.
Our condolences to Cesar and his family. Losing a special dog is never easy, but we can take comfort in having provided one of God's creatures a good life.

About the Bloggers

Daily Breeze reporter Donna Littlejohn has shared her homes with a succession of wonderful, funny, and occasionally difficult canines -- Muffin, Fritz, Ellie, Mercy, Pilgrim and now Cowboy, an Australian shepherd-border collie, and Tess, a border collie. From strong-willed terriers to weirdly obsessed Australian shepherds, they've invaded her world with boundless energy, wet noses, muddy paws and soggy tennis balls. But they've really brought so much more than that -- like laughter and joy, some unexpected life lessons, and more than a few tears along the way.

He now owns the loudest dog in the South Bay(Video: Rocket the Dog) and is the least popular person on his block. He spends his free time in dog parks, pet shops and always has an extra plastic bag in his pocket just in case. He also has a cat.
