If you have a dog, this is a great show. I have this thing scheduled to TiVo whenever it comes on. National Georgraphic Channel, alot of episoes on Tuesdays.
Cesar Millan is an absolute badass with dogs. He trains Denise Richards dog, Oprah Winfrey, and Will Smith among others. He can take any sort of problem with a dog, whether it is a Pit Bull, Poodle, Boxer, Mini Doberman, Green Doberman, whatever, and fix this thing up psychologically to behave well, be happy, trained and balanced.
It all revolves around the wolf/canine approach of pack leader.
Whether the problem is a Pit Bull that seems to be scared of everything because something traumatizing happend to him as a puppy, or if the dog is a biter, or if the dog barks when the doorbell rings, or if the dog has a tennis ball obsession, or it doesnt listen, it all revolves around YOU.
The problem 99% of the time is the dog does not view you as a pack leader, and therefore can assume the role of pack leader himself, become nervous or scared that they dont have a good pack leader etc.
He ranks dog training elements in this order of importance:
Exercise
Discipline
Affection
Dogs dont want affection and love, They want good pack leaders. They want to know they can trust you. If they view you as a pack leader, and you are calm, assertive, and stick with your approach of calm discipline - they will jump through hoops for you.
Anyone follow this show, and have you tried any of this on your dog?
I have and it works beautifully.
Now, if only I could get this guy to do a show on coaxing more bitches into my bed. Human females, I mean.
