My Dog Hates The Dog Whisperer

I was sitting on the couch flipping through channels and settled on The Dog Whisperer.  I love me some Caesar Milan.  Not like that.  I just think he is really interesting.  However Elizabeth did not like my choice of viewing.  It wasn't Caesar who set her off it was those other ill behaved dogs she didn't care for.  Oh and she let me know it.  

It first started out as a low growl directed to the TV.  A warning shot if you will.  The it progressed to a little one off bark.  She definitely disapproved of the badly behaved Yorkies.  Next thing I know she is standing on the sofa, hair raised on her back full out barking at the television.  I have never seen anything like it.  She was actually pissed off at the unstable dogs on the TV.  Now the funny thing is, once Caesar had relieved the dogs of their bad behaviors Elizabeth went back to sleeping on the couch, well until the next badly behaved dog appeared.  

This time it was a overly dominant German Shepherd.  Low growl, bark, then full on barking once again.  Of course I told her to knock it off and she laid back down, but you could tell that she was not comfortable until Caesar had worked his magic.  It was one of the strangest things I have ever seen.  Elizabeth on of the most calm and submissive (Caesars terms, not mine) had lost her cool with dogs that weren't even physically here.

Now the question is, should I continue to watch The Dog Whisperer or avoid it?  Should I make Elizabeth watch these badly behaved pooches?  It is still up in the air.
