I agree with everything Leesa has said. I also really like Cesar. Personally I think he's amazing. Dogs need an alpha to thrive and if they are domestic then you have to be the alpha. I have seen first hand what happens to a dog if it doesn't have that leader there. My friends dog never gets walked, sleeps on her bed all the time and is allowed on her couch amongst over things and it is the most unstable dog. If a dog is confused and doesn't know it's place it becomes unpredictable and aggressive. You shouldn't treat your dog like it's your child that's only servicing your own needs and desires.
And from what I can see all of his dogs don't seem fearful of him just respectful. I never see them cringe or scared when he is directing them, they seem really calm and happy.
Hey Jaydin, thanks for the links. They make a lot of sense.
I have looked into Sophia Yin today and really love her techniques. I am going to say goodbye to Cesar and see how I go using Sophia's techniques. Need to get myself a bum bag & fill it with treats for our walks
Thanks alot for your advice.
Here is a link for anyone else interested in Sophia Yin's training techniques.
No problem Wild Child! I'm glad that you've found use in those articles
Sophia does support the use of electric collars or check chains in some instances (where they prove effective) with certain dogs too.
Hmm, didn't realise that, but I do think that since they are not a major part of her training, they can be left out without having a detrimental effect on the dog's training.
I can't believe you guys are dissing cesar milan! he's a dog lover of the highest magnitude! watch his show and see how well dogs react to him in an instant....he knows how to project the right energy to which the dogs responds and that is all his technique is...projection of the right energy!

Have you not read any posts of this thread/watched the video? Why does the projection of energy occur through the foot?

Is Cesar a vegetarian? A lot of people on this site believe that you cannot be an animal lover if you eat meat.

I don't hate him for eating meat. I don't believe in the techniques he uses when there are more humane ways to train dogs.

I didn't mean anything by it, just making a point for discussion, perhaps.
