Plus: The dog trainer entrusted with the Astros' pups
Word travels fast in the close quarters of a big league clubhouse. It's not uncommon for players to sling recommendations and referrals across the room, from restaurants to vacation destinations … and even dog trainers.

For Astros stars Yordan Alvarez, Mauricio Dubón, Jose Altuve and Martín Maldonado, Dawe is the go-to when it comes to taking care of their dogs. The busy life of a professional baseball player means they spend half of the regular season away from their beloved pets so it takes a good deal of trust to leave their furry friends with someone else.
If you ask them, Dawe has earned it in spades. |
