Daddy the Pit Bull
While I am not a huge fan of Cesar Milan, I do give the man tremendous credit for creating his own "brand" of seemingly everything including himself. His work with dogs, especially pit bulls, has also done the breed a tremendous service by demonstrating the inaccuracy of their often maligned image.
It is with sadness then that I report on the death of Milan's most famous pit bull, Daddy, who passed away on February 19 at the age of 16. While 16 is indeed a long and wonderful life, it is never long enough for those who loved him.
For those of yo familiar with Milan, you will recognize Daddy as his "right hand man," the one who helped train and shape an entire generation of dogs who would model his behavior. A sweet, gently soul who demonstrated the true nature of the breed, Daddy will be sorely missed by all who knew and loved him.
