K9 Veterans Day is a time to honor our four-legged friends who have made a special contribution to our country through military or law enforcement service. Those of us involved with Dog Whisperer with Cesar Millan are lucky enough to have met one of these courageous, loyal, and hard-working dogs ourselves, and viewers of the show may remember K9 Gavin, a 10-year-old Yellow Lab retiree of the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, and Firearms.

Many of you will remember Luna the Lab mix as she was in her Season 4 debut - cowering under tables, peeking around corners, and running for her life from… well, everything! But with Cesar's expert help and the patient and loving guidance of her handler, Abel Delgado, Luna, now nearly 5 years old, has conquered her fears and is living a happy and fulfilled life with her new pack mate Noel. We caught up with Abel this week to get the inside scoop on Luna's surprisingly dramatic recovery.

Well, we got to see the much anticipated episode of Dog Whisperer with Chula. I have to tell you we loved it, not only because Chula was in it, but you guys, all of you, did a fantastic job at putting it all together. We have received many calls saying how much everyone enjoyed it, but most of all Jack and I want to let you know, and please pass it on to all who worked on it: EVERYONE did such a GREAT, FANTASTIC job.

I am just following up with some comments about the shoot at our house. First, I would like to express my gratitude for the privilege of meeting you and Cesar. You made both Melissa and myself feel comfortable and at ease. I must say that the entire crew was so warm to work with us novices in the show business world.

Our Dog Whisperer Experience

I was truly at my wits' end. My husband was ill quite a bit of the time, the dogs were acting up. The fighting was becoming a daily occurrence; they were scarred and bloody, Dolly was on medication for anxiety and still was aggressive. I knew we needed help and went to a dog psychologist in LA and paid $500 for a two-hour session. Taking every word he said to heart, we tried our best to follow his instructions, only to find out that we were making the problem worse. Now we were really in trouble.

I have to say that in 2004 I could have never dreamed that a little four-pound terror of a dog and Cesar Millan, a man I had never heard of would change the course of my life forever.

Chihuahua Nu Nu was found wandering the streets of San Luis Obispo, un-neutered and un-socialized. By way of a very long story, he ended up in Southern California where one of my clients at the vet hospital found him. I took him thinking he was scared and needed love.

I would like to write this letter to tell you what an impact Cesar Milan and his whole team has had on our family. Stormy spent almost four weeks with Cesar at the Dog Psychology Center in LA and truly came home a different dog. He did such a beautiful job in not only understanding the needs of Stormy, but also in understanding us as a family. After visiting Stormy that first time at the center and watching his interaction with Cesar, I knew he was in great hands and whatever experience he had was only going to be positive one for him. I have learned many things from Cesar, but most importantly I learned about his love for the animals that are entrusted into his care.

When Kathy and Kate told me that they were going to submit Howie to Dog Whisperer, I was excited that there might be someone out there who could help him. Of course, it seemed like a long shot that we would be selected, so, when we got the final confirmation, I was ecstatic. I have to be honest that I was not very familiar with Cesar at the time, which made it an extra special surprise when I got to see him in action.  As a veterinarian, I have worked with many trainers, but to see Cesar’s easy, confident style and immediate results was inspiring.
