Also, I totally agree. It's totally different working with larger dogs than working with smaller dogs. Cesar's shows are generally aimed towards larger dogs and some of his methods should definitely NOT be used on a 5lb Yorkie.
I think the main difference between Cesar and Victoria is that Cesar's cases are often ("often" not always) really tough cases where they're using Cesar as a total last resort or the dog could be PTS. Highly-aggressive, or highly problematic dogs. So a lot of the things he does should NOT be done by the typical dog owner watching at home. However, everyone can try to portray his calm energy and his exercise, discipline, affection rule. That can work for any dog. Victoria's show, on the other hand, focuses more on things every day normal people can do with their dogs, which would be the only reason I would like her show a bit more. They are techniques that can be used by a regular dog owner. With Cesar's cases... most people do not have the luxury of bringing their dog into a pack of 30+ dogs who are totally calm submissive. That's just not reality. |
I agree thats why I said alot of his training is geared towards bigger dogs. But I do think there are things smalller dog owners can get from some of his episodes to use also. I really believe in his exercise, discipline, affection rule also
