Hallo cheerful viewers,
and welcome to
Animal World:
Our Co-Inhabitants,
for today’s program
featuring beloved
animal companions
from all around the globe
who will amaze us
with their awesome
abilities and talents.
We’ll meet
exquisite animal dancers,
a good conversationalist,
an animal companion
who helps with
the laundry, and more!
Teaching your animal
companion new skills
is a good way to have fun
and bond with your
unconditional friend.
What is the best method
to encourage
our animal friends
to learn new talents?
Let's hear a couple of tips
from an expert,
Mr. Huang Fa-Chung,
a trainer
at Bolin Pets Hotel.
In training my dogs,
I always praise them
verbally.
For instance,
this dog is being naughty,
then I would say to him:
“Be good!
You are wonderful!”
And then pet him
with my hands.
If we give the dog
a command telling him
to sit down and
he acted accordingly,
then we should praise him
in the first instance –
it should be
within three seconds.
If he refused to obey,
we should immediately
go over to encourage him.
After you repeated it
for a few times,
the dog would understand.
All dogs can
definitely be trained.
We train dogs in this way
as they are very habitual.
We teach him every day,
and if he repeats doing
this action every day,
he will do it naturally later.
This dog was very timid
when she first came;
she simply fainted
upon seeing people.
You have to
treat this kind of dogs
with much love,
and try to play with them
as much as possible.
Then gradually
you can start to train them.
Now she is not so afraid
of people or dogs.
Animals are
highly intelligent and
have the aptitude to learn
not only simple tricks
but can be taught
helpful actions
to help their caregivers.
Let's meet three dogs
named Kellea, Caddy
and Journey,
from Ohio, USA.
Their human mom
has special needs, and
these devoted canines
are ready and willing
to help her in
whatever ways they can.
I help my mom
close the door
whenever she needs me to.
I also like to help her
with the laundry.
Okay, here is
the pink towel,
and here is
one of your socks, and
here is the green towel.
I just love helping you
because I love you!
Caddy,
a magnificent Labrador,
is also learning to help.
Oooops.
Mom dropped
her remote control
and can't pick it up.
I’ll get it for her,
and then we can both
enjoy watching television
together.
While most caretakers
take their dogs for a walk,
Tilley a large,
white Goldendoodle,
enjoys taking
his human companion
for a ride in her wheelchair.
I’ll need to slow down now
and carefully maneuver
to get her safely
between these two cars.
Wonderful! Now that
we are on the road,
we can move more quickly.
What a beautiful day
to go for a walk together.
Our avian friends love
to entertain us with their
endearing antics, too.
Sisi, the Yellow-crested
cockatoo is visiting
a Loving Hut
vegan restaurant
for the first time.
Check out
this amazing menu!
And to think
that everything here
is totally vegan, free from
any animal products.
How loving
and compassionate!
The food looks so yummy!
Maybe I should have some
of these tasty spring rolls.
Wait, this looks like
a refreshing salad.
Or how about
a fresh fruit plate?
That sure sounds delish!
Here come the waitress,
and I still haven't decided
what to eat.
You know, this restaurant
makes me soooo happy,
I just want to
sing and dance for joy!!
Here’s Winnie,
a veggie wild boar piglet.
Not only is she adorable,
but she is super smart
and so obedient.
Mom said
that an apple a day
keeps the doctor away.
Some animal companions
enjoy interactive games
with their caregiver,
like the very intelligent
little Shih Tzu
named Shan Mei.
Okay, give me "five",
give me "five".
Now give me "ten",
give me "ten".
My human is so smart!
With all that exercise,
I need a little drink of water.
I’m having so much fun!
Look what else I can do:
I can roll over....
And I can "speak".
And again.
I can turn around in circles
in both directions,
just for fun.
Sometimes I pretend that
I am a beautiful ballerina,
just to make her laugh.
When my Mom
gives me supper, I will
not touch even one bite
until she tells me I can eat.
She tells me
I’m a very good girl!
I just love, love, love
my mommy.
Supreme Master Ching Hai,
internationally
renowned author of
the #1 bestselling books,
"The Dogs in My Life",
"The Birds in My Life"
and "The Noble Wilds",
has adopted 10 dogs
and 23 birds.
Through telepathic
communication
based on pure love,
Supreme Master Ching Hai’s
books reveal
the magnificent
inner spirit world
of animals,
their innate intelligence
and dignified qualities.
In a gathering with our
Association members
in Florida, USA
on June 5, 2001,
Supreme Master Ching Hai
spoke about
her feathered friends and
shared how Mirabeau is
such a smart and charming
Umbrella cockatoo.
Even the bird laughs.
Sometimes she looks at
the dog making trouble,
and she said,
"Oh, funny dog! Ha-ha-ha."
So funny.
Funny dog, ha-ha-ha-ha.
Laugh so much.
Sometimes she laughs,
rolling. Show off.
So young
and show off already.
Not trained, nothing yet.
Just eats, sleeps.
Trains herself.
Very clever bird!
You're a good bird.
Say, "I'm a good girl."
Not really.
She said
she doesn't want it.
What's so funny?
What is so funny?
You're not laughing
at me, no?
Now she shuts up.
Funny bird.
Birds, dogs, these animals
they don't worry too much
about tomorrow.
They eat and
they just do whatever.
Whatever is there, they eat
and then they go to sleep.
That's why they're mostly
connected with God
at all times.
At any time,
they can connect with God.
That's why
they know a lot of things.
That's why they can see
things we don't even see.
They sense things
that we don't sense.
They have intuition that
we can only dream of.
Their faculties are much,
… multiple times
sharper than ours.
Our hearts
are filled with gratitude
for all the noble animals
who grace our Earth.
As our loyal companions
and benefactors
they bring so much joy,
balance and love
into our lives.
