| My Husband is a big Caesar fan. He has tried some of the things Caesar does with Chachi but he never does with Jewels. He lets her get away with murder

| dog whisperer Now one thing the dog whisperer doesn't do is walk a Yorkie. My female pulls on the harness no matter if we've walked one block or twenty. I know he uses collars, but I use harnesses with my dogs because I don't want them hurting their trachea. I guess I won't worry about it and just let them have fun. Even though he says a dog in front doesn't respect you as a pack leader! My male does not pull on the harness like my female does, but she is definately the alpha dog. |

| I love the show and think he is awesome! Some of the people on the show seem to have no clue and just plain stupid though....

| I've read the book and found about half of it was about his background and how he became the "Dog Whisperer". I would recommend reading it, but I must confess that I do not adher to his method, only because I can not help but spoil my baby. I do take her for walks though not because he's really big on the exercise thing, I walk Gin-Gin because she loves it so. Lynn and Gin-Gin |

| You'll find out that some people here love Cesar and others don't. I have his book and first season DVD collection. Its like anything else thats advise...take what you think will work for you and throw out the rest. Somethings he suggests like a long walk, I have modified and make sure that Bailey and Tia get a good running workout, even in the home. We may play ball for 1/2 hour to an hour. It tires them out and they seem more calm and responsive to commands. Good luck!!

| Cesar Millan I just finished reading Cesar Milans book. I am hoping to try his method. My last Yorkie was agressive and I know now it was alot of my doing. I love treating my dog like a baby! It will be hard for me not to do the same with my next puppy,but I do not want the agression again. The only part I don't get is how not to be afraid when I am introducing my tiny Yorkie to a large dog. What if the other dog becomes agressive and it would be too late?! I just am not sure how that works. I want her to be sociable, but with a small dog it is very scary. How do I not transform that fear in my dog ? I need to get over that fear factor and I don't know how yet. Anyway, I have some time to figure it all out before I get my new puppy. |

| I haven't bought the book, but I bought the 1st series on DVD. I just love his techniques. He has helped us. We got the girls & never walked them, too hot in the summer here in Fl. The pavement would burn their paws. So in the last month we were trying to start & Misha layed flat on the ground when we put the lease on her. We used what we learned from Milan & now she loves to go for walks. |

| I just received two DVD's of his of his first 6 episodes which I do not get on my TV. I watched one and picked up some helpful hints. Yes we pamper our Yorkies but I believe we can make them better campanions. Even though they are small we forget that they are "DOGS". They are very smart and can easily get their own way and at times become aggressive or want to be ALPHA over us for a better word. It is happening with Buddy all of a sudden. I needed help, fast. I am glad he is there for any help I need. We need to be respected by our pets not bossed around by them. Buddy is 13lbs and can give some bite it he wanted too. A little 3lb Yorkie might not be so threatening. I want control over him at all times and want to be ALPHA in my home. Of course not all rules apply but he really knows his stuff. |

| I think Ceasar is amazing! I also think when you are not in control of your dog and your dog is controlling you, you will create problems that are a danger to yourself and your dog. My coworker just came to work this morning upset, His poodle was hit by a car and killed right in front of him and his kids. You know why. Because he ran after a cat into the middle of the road while they were trying to put on his leash. Now I love to baby my Jaxson as much as the next person but when we fail to train then properly, we fail THEM. There is a time and place for everything but a dog that pulls or does not listen or darts out and god only know what else is being set up to FAIL. They are still DOGS and it is our responsiblity to protect them from indangering themselves, let them know who's the leader, not just dressing them up and treating them like children. We wouldn't let our kids do it why our dogs? |
