I have been a HUGE fan of Cesar Millan for years now and I am an even bigger believer today. I was at the Harbor Church yesterday in Ventura Ca. (California Homeless Resources partnered with them) and the director there was telling me a story of the dog whisperer coming to the church/shelter and taking this homeless gals pup to train it so that she could go into a shelter. The homeless gal was form the river bottom here in Ventura and she loved her dog but it needed to be trained to stay with her. Cesar took the dog, trained it and brought it back! I am a HUGE fan and want to partner with Cesar in the future as well.

Shelter Stars, the Millan Foundation’s animal shelter affiliation program, promotes positive, healthy relationships between families and the dogs they adopt from re-homing organizations across the country. Currently, Shelter Stars partners are distributing copies of "People Training for Dogs" (the most popular volume in Cesar Millan’s "Mastering Leadership" DVD series) free of charge to families that adopt shelter dogs.
- "Spay & Neuter is Nothing to Whisper About" is the Millan Foundation’s public service campaign that includes television commercials, full color posters, and reproducible ads featuring messages from the “Dog Whisperer” himself to promote the importance of spaying and neutering dogs to curb overpopulation
- The Mutt-i-grees Curriculum, made possible by the Millan Foundation, is a collaboration with North Shore Animal League and Yale University’s "School of the 21st Century" The curriculum is an innovative approach to humane education, and embraces learning within the context of the emerging area of emotional intelligence and social skills. The Millan Foundation wishes to generate public and media attention on the plight of dogs and cats awaiting adoption in shelters and enhance the status and desirability of these animals, most of which are mixed breed "Mutt-i-grees." Students will learn essential skills 3/4 such as caring for others, showing empathy and respect, building relationships and acting ethically and responsibly 3/4 and how those apply in their interactions with peers, adults and animals. The first of the curriculum’s four phases focuses on preschool and the primary grades and starts in September, 2009.
