Calm Assertiveness... no pain or fear suggested here.,
By Curly Girl (Grand Rapids, MI) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Dog Whisperer with Cesar Millan - Stories from Cesar's Way (DVD)
Cesar's approach of using calm assertiveness is gentle and effective. If you are using pain or fear to force your dog to behave how you want, then you are doing it wrong. He uses no tension on the leash unless doing a quick touch or leash movement to redirect the dog's focus - not at all to bring pain. He meets the dogs on their level and helps to 'train' humans on dog psychology, correcting the idea that all dogs are little humans. They aren't, and approaching them using dog psychology works, gently and effectively. Our dog is a lucky recipient of this training method, and he is not only happier, but healthier from the new routine Cesar has outlined for us in this video and in his show on National Geographic Channel - The Dog Whisperer.

A peaceful way of living,
By Java (California) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Dog Whisperer with Cesar Millan - Stories from Cesar's Way (DVD)
Let me start by saying that since reading Cesar's book and watching his DVDs, I've changed the way I interact with my two high energy dogs and we are all much happier and much healthier thanks to the rollerblade sessions and rules and limitations I have implimented. He doesn't claim to be a genious who came up with some wonderful idea, he is simply translating dog psychology into words we can understand as humans.
Some will say Cesar uses fear and pain in his methods. These are the ones who have never read his book and have never made an effort to understand his methods. If they had made an effort to understand, they would know that he uses energy (posture, state of mind, eye contact etc.) to help dogs understand that he is in charge and that they are to follow his lead and they don't have to worry about decision making in a strange human world. Simple as that...no pain, no fear. He uses physical contact only when absolutly necessary and never to the point of injury. A dog is probably much more likely to hurt itself by pulling on its leash ahead of its owner than by the quick corrections Cesar makes. I've never heard a dog under Cesar's control yelp in pain and my dogs have never communicated pain or fear. It is true that the view of a strict hierarchy in wolf packs has been dismissed; however, there is still leadership in packs. It's not a democracy. They don't vote on where to go or what to hunt. The strongest and most assertive wolves make the call. ALL CESAR IS TRYING TO GET ACROSS IS THAT WE, AS HUMANS IN A HUMAN WORLD, MUST CONVEY, THROUGH ENERGY, THAT WE WILL MAKE THE CALLS. Everyone is entitled to choose their own way of teaching their dogs, but putting down another point of view is childish and a sign of ignorance. For those of you who think Cesar's technique should never be used in any situation, I invite you to come on over and I'll hand you a pitbull trained to fight and you can click at that dog with your little clickers and hollar commands 'till your heart's content. I'll have an ambulance standing by.
