Monks Get Animal Planet TV Show
Divine Canine is a new dog training television program by Animal Planet that features the monks of New Skete, an OCA monsatary up in Cambridge, NY. Beyond the usual baking, icon painting, retreat hosting, cheese making, and other monatary related tasks that go on at the monstary, they also raise German Shepards and hold dog training seminars.
I have yet to see the show, however I have to confess, the interest in the monastary has increased so much that they are currently unable to take orders for new puppies. If that doesn't help the monastary along, I don't know what will.
