“How the Dog Whisperer met the Ghost Whisperer”

My name is Cesar Millan and many of you know me as the “Dog Whisperer” on the National Geographic Channel’s hit show, “Dog Whisperer with Cesar Millan”. Normally, my job is working with people to turn their problem dogs into good canine citizens…so, how did I end up getting to help “Ghost Whisperer” Melinda Gordon solve her problems with a ghost dog that won’t cross over? It’s actually a pretty cute story.

One of my executive producers and also the co-writer of my books, Melissa Jo Peltier, happens to be married to John Gray, the creator of the Ghost Whisperer series. They are newlyweds and get a lot of mileage out of the coincidence that the Dog Whisperer Producer and the Ghost Whisperer Producer are a couple. One day, Melissa suggested to John that maybe I could help Melinda deal with the problem of what to do about Homer the ghost dog. Since many of the Ghost Whisperer staff and the CBS executives were fans of my show, they loved the idea. And since my whole family are all huge fans of Jennifer Love Hewitt and the show, I was very excited to participate.
