  I believe that you can do the same thing a behaviorist can do if you read Cesar's books and learn to understand how dogs think.  Believe me, it is YOUR behavior that has to change before the dog will change. 
When we don't know how a dog thinks, we have no idea what impact our behavior has on them.  Humans do not make much sense to dogs.
