On September 8, 2009, “Dog Whisperer” Cesar Millan and Scooby-Doo celebrated their 40th birthdays with a bash at the East Valley Animal Shelter in Van Nuys, California. Also on hand for the event were plenty of adoptable dogs, dignitaries, and the cast of the upcoming movie Scooby-Doo! The Mystery Begins, a co-production of Warner Premiere and Cartoon Network. At the event, more than 40,000 Snausages Scooby Snacks were donated in celebration of the world’s favorite Great Dane’s birthday bash.
“I’m so happy to be celebrating my 40th birthday with an icon like Scooby-Doo. And I’m thrilled to use this celebratory moment to promote the importance of giving dogs a second chance and adopting them from local shelters or rescue groups,” said Cesar Millan. “Many thanks to Cartoon Network and Warner Bros. Consumer Products for contributing to the Cesar and Ilusion Millan Foundation and for supporting our continued efforts to rescue, rehabilitate and re-home shelter dogs.”
On Sept. 13, Scooby-Doo will premiere of the new live-action movie Scooby-Doo! The Mystery Begins on Cartoon Network. The movie tells, for the first time, the origin story of the Mystery Inc. gang. The two-hour movie premiers Sunday, Sept. 13, at 7 p.m. (ET, PT). Warner Home Video will also release Scooby-Doo! The Mystery Begins on DVD and Blu-Ray(TM) Combo Pack on Tuesday, Sept. 22.
