Don’t tell Spot: Cesar Millan is back in town, as the original “Dog Whisperer” returns to the Count Basie for a Thursday night event that’s strictly for humans only.
As a frequent visitor to the homes of Jada Pinkett Smith, Charlize Theron, Scarlett Johansson, Oprah Winfrey, and Nicolas Cage, he’s said to have worked wonders with some of the most aggressive, scared, lazy, compulsive and jealous creatures in Hollywood — by which we mean celebrity-owned dogs.
In the process of becoming the most sought-after canine rehabilitation specialist in the business, Cesar Millan became a major celebrity in his own right — a multiple Emmy-nominated TV personality, a best-selling author, and a man who can sell out a major concert venue without singing, dancing or telling jokes that only dogs can hear.
A repeat attraction at the Count Basie Theatre, the original Dog Whisperer and host of the NatGeo WILD channel’s Cesar 911 returns to Red Bank on Thursday night, October 16, for an informative session that’s guaranteed useful to dogs and humans alike. The only bone to pick? Those who stand to benefit the most — our four-legged family members — are once again being asked to sit this one out.
Thanks in large part to audience favorites like Millan, the Basie stage has become a venue of choice for live appearances by stars of nonfiction/ “reality” TV shows — and like the best of his fellow Cake Bosses, Long Island Mediums and bad-boy chefs, the down-to-earth Millan can turn even a 1,500-seater into a space as comfortable and intimate as your own favorite video viewing room; putting the crowd at ease with a polished presentation and interactive Q&A.
The world’s foremost proponent of Cesar’s Way will be joined on that famous stage by his famous four-legged friend Junior — and then by multiple canine clients, as he performs live training demonstrations of a methodology through which “Cesar’s Way can bring harmony and balance into your and your dog’s lives.”
Tickets to the 8 pm program ($55.50 – $115) are available right here.
