The dog was taken in by a no-kill shelter and sent to live with a local trainer who uses only positive methods and who has had a ton of success with rehabilitating dogs. After 6 months, he attacked and bit her. He's since been put down.

I'm not saying another trainer might have had different results. But, I'm saying I think there is room to believe that no one method or type of training is perfect.

Very true.

Also, yes, I've seen that episode with the disabled woman and I love that episode! I absolutely adore how he can open up people as well as animals. That woman was a self-proclaimed "loner" really who didn't really have a life that she desired. She then learned that she CAN be powerful and be a good person in this world. When Cesar was trying to get her to think about something else... do you remember what she wanted to get? She really like shrimp, I think? She said "I'm goin' to get some shrimp!" and Cesar kept repeating "shrimp, shrimp, shrimp, shrimp!" to get her to NOT think about being tense or nervous, lol. I loved that.
