'Cesar Millan LIVE' to visit nine Canadian cities - tickets on sale August 30

TORONTO, Aug. 25 /CNW/ - Oprah Winfrey, Scarlett Johansson, Will Smith and Nicolas Cage have all had their dogs trained and balanced by TV sensation Cesar Millan. Cesar Millan has gained a dedicated following as host of his Emmy-nominated series 'Dog Whisperer', and now fans and dog lovers across Canada have an opportunity to witness Cesar Millan's talents first hand as he brings his enlightening and hugely entertaining live show to Canada for the first time. Presented by National Geographic Channel, 'Cesar Millan LIVE' will visit: Victoria (October 26), Vancouver (Oct. 27 & 28), Hamilton (Oct. 30), Toronto (Nov. 1), London (Nov. 2), Ottawa (Nov. 3), Montreal (Nov. 4), Edmonton (Nov. 6) and Calgary (Nov. 7). Cesar Millan will have audiences spellbound as he shares his amazing insights on dog psychology, and how people can inadvertently play a role in their dog's "behavioral issues".

Tickets for 'Cesar Millan LIVE' go on sale on Monday, August 30 at 10:00 a.m. (local time). Further ticket and tour information can be found at www.cesarmillanlive.ca.

With 'Cesar Millan LIVE', Cesar uses state-of-the-art multimedia accompanied by dogs and their owners to illustrate his unique concepts. During the first half of his live show, Cesar teaches the audience about how the everyday things we do in our homes, can grow into behavioral issues. He also offers invaluable tips and tools to help your dog be calm and balanced while at home. The second part of 'Cesar Millan LIVE' focuses on the dog park - Cesar demonstrates the importance of energy and leadership. Over the course of the show, Cesar will have audiences seeing the world through their dog's eyes and his "fulfillment formula" will change their relationships with their dogs forever.

"What amazing places dogs are taking me to," Cesar says. "If you had told me when I was growing up in Mexico, that one day I would be travelling the world with my own live show, I don't think I would have ever believed it. I rehabilitate dogs and train people, so to be given the chance to share my talents to help dog owners become calm and assertive pack leaders with their dogs really helps me fulfill my vision of making the world a better place… one dog at a time."

The all-new sixth season of Dog Whisperer premieres on Sunday, September 12 at 5pm ET / 2pm PT on National Geographic Channel. For more information, viewers can visit www.natgeotv.com.
