| Not my style, but I'm glad he exists. You wouldn't be wasting your money buying the book, just don't take it as God's word. |

| I watch it whenever I can. It just amazes me what he can do with some of those dogs! I have found some real similarities between his style and that of my puppy school teachers. IMO, I think it is best to select bits and peices from several different training philosophies, to mix and match and come up with the training regimen that works best for you and your baby.

| I have the book. It has helped a lot. We are now walking instead of standing in one spot. Let me warn you though, at first I hated the book because he made it seem like you can't give your dog any affection. If you read on then you realize that he is saying to give affection at the right time. |

| Have the book, but don't use it as the gospel. Just recently bought the 1st season on DVD. Seems to me...different dog...same advice (walk them and be consistant). I wouldn't buy the DVD collection again.

| I think a lot of Yorkie owners (and some other small breeds also) --- find it a little difficult to adhere to some of Caesar's ways of training a dog. Wonder why????? ----------- Personally - I am a huge Caesar fan - as are all my family and friends. Carol Jean |

| I think he is pretty amazing with the dogs on the show. I read the book and liked it. But some things that I think would work well, I don't do. One example is walking the dogs. They would heel pretty good if I told them to heel but I see their walk as time for them to run and have fun and explore. I really enjoy watching them running, smelling, prancing, everything. That is at the park. When walking on the streets I keep them pretty close because of traffic.
