Bash Dibra, celebrity pet guru and author, shows pet owners the newest way for singles to find a date for Valentine's Day by using their dog as a "Pet Magnet."

A pet doesn't have to be a trained professional to help attract that special someone. But there is still time. All you need is Bash's latest book, StarPet to help you teach your furry friend such tricks as:

*Barking hello to your good-looking next door neighbor

*Waving a paw to the cutie eying you from behind a double latté

*Carrying a note to that chick/guy reading on a park bench

*Pulling on the trousers of a man to get his response

*Begging – feet down, rear end up to attract attention

*Whining so they think the dog needs a hug

Dogs are the true magnet, they are cute, adorable, sincere, honest and give unconditional love.

What more could single pet owners ask for? And, after your pet has all these tricks "up his paws" your dog might turn out to be the perfect way to find your Valentine's date, and maybe your true love.
