Watch the Dog Whisperer Online (It’s Totally Legal!)

We don’t get the National Geographic channel here at our house (we only have very basic cable) which means we usually have to wait for the Dog Whisperer to come out on DVD. Well, not anymore! I just noticed that they’ve started adding four episodes at a time of the Dog Whisperer to Hulu.com so we can now watch them at our leisure.

A few fabulous things about Hulu–it’s advertiser supported (so it’s free) but the commercial breaks are much shorter than they are on TV, the streaming works flawlessly with our high speed connection, and you can resize the viewing window to any size you’d like from tiny to full size. Sometimes, I keep something open in a window while I’m doing something else on the computer, so this is perfect for me. Other times, I want to watch something on the entire space of the widescreen 23″ monitor, so I go full screen mode and can sit back and enjoy.

Also, this means you can watch the Dog Whisperer *legally* even if you don’t get the National Geographic channel. I know there are ways to watch TV shows that aren’t so legal and I’ve never tried that approach because it’s littered with viruses (and, you know, the whole breaking the law thing factors in in a mega way). I just got through watching Season 5, Episode 7 where our favorite dog whisperer Cesar Millan works with an adorable basset who’s afraid of the head of the house. I couldn’t believe when Sadie (the basset) wouldn’t even take a treat from him because she’s so afraid of him. It’s always so amazing to watch how patiently Cesar listens to the people who need his help–if it were me, I wouldn’t be nearly so nice to them. Guess that’s why he’s the dog whisperer and not me ;-).
