Oprah Winfrey calls famed dog trainer Tamar Geller, "life coach for dogs" Tamar prefers the term "well-mannered" to "obedient" and "coaching" to "training." Geller has helped stars including Oprah Winfrey teach manners to their four-legged family members.

“Geller was featured on "The Oprah Winfrey Show" as Oprah's personal dog coach, and has provided insight to millions of dog enthusiasts nationwide as resident dog expert on "The Today Show" and Animal Planet's "Who Gets the Dog."”

Geller must be thrilled to be one very special person who is able to get dogs to open up to him and reveal their inner passions and priorities as their life coach. Eddie Murphy played Dr. Doolittle in a movie where he could hear and talk to animals, including dogs. Am I right thinking Geller can hear what dogs think and can also talk to dogs in the same manner? If so, I would love to see a video of him coaching a dog. The repartee would have to be priceless.

Geller opens up a whole new market for many life coaches out there seeking clients. But why stop with just dogs? I imagine someone will soon claim that he or she is the life coach for cats, horses, cattle, bears, goats, and or turtles. The possibilities are endless.

The next time you visit a zoo, you might be lucky enough to meet the resident life coach for the animals, and learn about the inner concerns of the animals that their life coach will reveal.

I guess we at TCC know whom to call when we hear a dog barking on an incoming life coaching consultation request call. We call Geller, the “life coach for dogs.”
