I haven't read all the posts on this thread... but you all are comparing apples to oranges...
Cesar is a dog Psychologist, Victoria is a dog Trainer. And I don't think it's a matter of who we like, but when you have a problem dog it's more important to find what works for that individual animal.
I try techniques from both (I know: do not use these techniques at home...). I decided to clicker train my new Yorkie rescue, Tinkerbell. (Victoria's method) I can't remember why right now, but I do remember she tried to attack me (they NEVER showed this on TV!) I was shocked, to say the least. So I immediately switched to Cesar's method and promptly put her on the floor until she became submissive, then I let her up. Needless to say, I will expect the unexpected from now on.... |
