Dog Whisperer CHUCK MCBDRIDE has been working with dogs for 40 years. Whispering builds trust and respect between human and dog. A whispered dog is obedient because the pack leader asked it to be; the dog trusts and respects its pack leader. Dog whispering is to understand dog psychology and language. This concept allows a human to awaken a dog's instinct to follow. Dogs aren't human; they're animal first, canine second, breed third.
