Auditions for
The Dog Whisperer


Meet the producers at the West Coast Pet Expo
Sunday November 15th from 2pm-4pm
 
Bring in your video for an Audition!
*Live animals are restricted from the pet expo. Only recorded videos will be accepted.

Dog Whisperer is looking for new and exciting stories for the series. We require a five to seven minute video from all of our applicants.

Video Instructions: Introduce yourself and your dog. Include your name, age, and occupation, as well as the dog’s name, age, and breed. We’re looking for a wide variety of dog problems, including unusual phobias, obsessions, fearful behavior, aggression, or any other unique situations that Cesar could help transform. Tell (and show) us 3 of the problems your dog is having and how these issues are affecting your life.

Video Tips:

  • Please try to keep the cameras as still as possible and include yourself in the video with your dog.
  • Avoid having the date and time on the screen.
  • Don’t zoom in too close to the dog; we want to see as much of the environment as possible.
  • Avoid backlighting on subjects around doors and windows.
  • Be creative! Tell us why your situation would make for a good story.

Video Requirements:

  • We will accept all formats, except from digital cameras and cell phones.
  • We are unable to return video tapes; if you would like to keep the footage, please make a copy for yourself.
  • If you're submitting a DVD, please make sure that the DVD is finalized and will play in a standard DVD player.
  • Please note, we will NOT consider your story for Dog Whisperer if you post your submission tape on the Internet on a website like Google Videos, YouTube, Myspace, or Friendster.

Please do not put yourself or your dog in danger while trying to film the behavior. Try using a muzzle, leash, or fence to assist, if you are dealing with an aggressive dog.
