Dissing Your Dog

Dale Sturtevant pitches a series of training tapes built around belittling dogs. Speaking with the calm confidence of a television expert, he demonstrates how to guilt a pet off the couch, scold another for an accident and shame a picky eater into accepting its food. The dogs dutifully respond while Dale turns ordinary frustrations into elaborate personal attacks, then offers a free first tape to draw owners into the rest of the program.
