Good Dog! (with Stanley Coren)

I was browsing through Hulu and came across this show that I never knew existed. It's hosted by the infamous Stanley Coren and aired beginning in 2000.

The first thing that struck me is that Dr. Coren is an elderly gentleman and comes across as a wise grandfatherly type and not as the evil scientist that LCK seems to make him out to be.

Anyway. The first episode features an American Eskimo dog that has a barking problem. (Sound familiar?) And I wonder how the positives would view his solution of ten years ago.

Other shows that "you might also like": Pets & Their Vets, Dog Days, Puppy Love

[6/7/11] Sadly (at least for archival purposes), the show is no longer on hulu. When I wrote this, I thought it might be available on AOL video, but no dice.

Evidently it's now officially on dailymotion (judging by the little OFFICIAL sign in the search. And a lot on 5min.com too.

[1/10/12] Hey, it's back on hulu!

[5/18/13] Now I see hulu posted some (most? all?) of the videos at dailymotion.  So maybe it'll still be there if it's taken off hulu.  They also posted some dog whisperer videos too.

There's also this neat site called Good Dog Zone where they categorize dog behaviors and show the relevant parts of the video.

[1/4/15] Good Dog! no longer on Hulu :(
