As a filmmaker you make your films with the audience you want to attract in mind.
Training a puppy is like raising a child. Every single interaction is a training opportunity.
I could speak to you and say, 'Laytay-chai, paisey, paisey. '. . . Why aren't you responding? Oh, you don't speak Swahili. Well, I've got news for you. The dog doesn't speak English, or American, or Spanish, or French.

When I'm training a dog, I develop a relationship with that dog. He's my buddy, and I want to make training fun.
Training a dog, to me, is on a par with learning to dance with my wife or teaching my son to ski. These are fun things we do together. If anyone even talks about dominating the dog or hurting him or fighting him or punishing him, don't go there.

I want manned spaceflight, not just back to the Moon, but beyond that. And I want my daughters and my son to have their own July 20, 1969, to remember. Apollo 11 didn't give us wings; it only showed us how far the wings we had would take us.
