Cesar Milan abuses dogs in every video. His most common technique is to repeatedly stab them in the ribs with his fingertips held closely together. He kicks them frequently as well. This guy needs to be brought up on charges of animal cruelty. People are fooled by his soft voice and smooth delivery.
@FairySpaceMonkey you fucking moron. Once again you show what a massive idiot you really are. Your little story has nothing to do with the issues we are discussion. Is it that you are really as stupid as people think? Balto...FUCKING IDIOT, at least you are good for the occasional laugh.
And just like in human team sports, each one has different skills. Some dogs like to be in charge and want to be up front. Others are insecure or worry, or are perhaps intimidated by the dogs behind them. Shy dogs often like to be further away from the sled and the person."
Every team/pack includes:
Lead Dogs, Swing or Point Dogs, Team Dogs & Wheel Dogs.
@AboutDogTraining3 right! And Balto's story is based on fiction right? "On February 2, 1925, the Norwegian Gunnar Kaasen
drove his team, LED by Balto, into Nome." "Balto proved himself on the Iditarod trail, saving his team in the Topkok River. Balto was also able to stay on the trail in near whiteout conditions; Kaasen stated he could barely see his hand in front of his face. Balto's team did their leg of the run almost entirely in the dark."
Leadership exists in dogs and so does pack hierarchy. When I think of this the name "Balto" comes to mind. Where would all those children have been if a great dog pack leader had not led those dog sled packs?
He is in no way harming these dogs. He just touches them, puts them aside and tugs on them which does not harm the dog in no way at all, cause in a way thats also how mothers discipline their pups.
Since we cant gnaw on their necks, we tug on they're collar cause they're programmed to respond to that feeling. Cesar thinks like a dog, That's why it works. You're working around their instincts rather then force them to understand a different unfamiliar way.
@CarmenRocks Millan thinks like a person without any real education and whose sole foundation is based on the belief that dogs use violence to control the behavior of other dogs. HE Is so far off the mark, it is hard to know how anyone can be so ignorant
Yeah, that is why he is so successful cause he is ignorant! Wonder why he has his own t.v. show,books and can teach dogs within minutes???? I agree with you,you are smart!
Now let me know when I can watch your shows and read your books.
@AboutDogTraining3 Your out of line and your mind, how can you call disippline violence? Your also a hypacrite, your displaying ignorance as we speak.
@surleyguru, you are out of your mind. How can you call violence discipline? You are a moron and a hypocrite and you need to read up on modern training methods.
ok i understand that cesar really understands the psychology of dogs but i'm not really into his method.i believe that positive training is the key to success and guess what?it works without harming your dog!
This poor fool Millan has access to some of the best researches in the world and teh idiot refuses to learn, continuing to push his idiotic ideas on TV.
I have had nine dogs so far in the past 20 years and what Cesar is saying is absolutely right. I have made all the mistakes in the book...now I have three dogs, a Jack Russell Terrier, a mix of Irish Wolfhound and a German Shepherd and they are great, each one of them and as a pack...I think I have instinctively come to the boundaries and affection rule and I know it works.
@rutsableich I know exactly what you mean. Out of my whole family (which is alot) we have owned 22 dogs(not all at once) and we have 3 houses. But i just wish that i knew what i knew now back then. I remember how many mistakes i have made on my animals. Other people that hate cesar just think everything is abuse or they have never met an aggressive dog or they have only owned 1 or 2 dogs and dont understand. After owning so many dogs you can see how they act idk its hard to explain.
@AboutDogTraining3, yes all those methods work but also remember they only pick the dogs that can understand this and the ones that don't pass well then they don't work for the FBI,CIA ect. U do know not all dogs make it.
@starflower1100 you are a fool. All dogs. Indeed all animals are amenable to positive reinforcement and conditioninng. It does't take some special dog to be clicker trained. The stupid crap that comes out of the Millan camp is incredible.
well whatever if i bring u my dog it would almost be impossible for him to tame her my dog wont sit when i put to her my leash she wont do anything she will only sit there trying to get rid of it.
A consortium of 26 animal welfare organisations including the RSPCA, the Australian Veterinary Association, the Kennel Club and the British Veterinary Association has written an open letter warning that Cesar Millan’s methods will lead to “pain and fear”, and are “not only unacceptable from a welfare perspective, but not necessary for the modification of dog behaviour”.
my friend does not do any of these he rescued a really skidish dog and when it is scared he pets the dog it is now 5 years old it is still skidish and still poos in the house and he has never followed one of ceasers advice
@AboutDogTraining3 Chill out, Millan's techniques may be out of date, but condescending people that don't know any better will not help your case.
If you really want to help people understand dogs, try to be a little smoother. That's why people love Millan. He really wants to help people and dogs, despite his out dated knowledge. You call everyone that is unaware of this newer method/ data "fucking idiots".
If he acted like you, he'd have never had a TV show.
I have not called into question Millan's feelings towards dogs. Only his ignorance about them. Though I wonder if now that 'dominance' is his brand if he is unwilling to change to methods that actually help dogs because it would cost him money
In the last ten years or so, training methods have begun to be more strongly influenced by animal learning theory – operant and Pavlovian conditioning – with a resulting move toward fewer and fewer aversives. The increased and more sophisticated use of rewards allowed trainers and counselors to solve problems and install obedience more efficiently than before and without confrontations of any sort.
Cesar Millan employs outdated and sometimes dangerous training methods; ones that have been long abandoned by the knowledgeable, educated animal behaviorists around the world.
Ufff, how interesting that those educated (you must be one of those jealous, racists faggots that want Millan's success, jej) methods are the ones who opt to put to sleep dogs that Cesar Millan has been able to rehabilitate.
Dangerous? AMerica is the land of law suits, we are still waiting for one in which a baby or an owner has been disfigured by his dog rehabilitated by Millan.....
yea Ceasar is the man.. helping mediocre dog trainers become great ones.. so that you have a dog that you can feel comfortable taking anywhere..!!! .BUT.. youve got to put your time in your dog.. just watching ceasars tips.. and techniques.. isnt going to help you if your not consistent and honest with the training...im pretty sure Ceasar would say the same thing
If it was true that in nature they will put another dog on its back, why do zoologists then not throw the socialized wolves on their back when they misbehave, i wonder why, Perhaps because Cesar isn't right, besides the point that they don't want to be wolfdinner , perhaps a zoologist know a lot more about wolves and dogs than Cesar does.
Italian veterinary behaviourists agree with the criticism already? made by U.S. colleagues of the American College of Veterinary Behaviorists (ACVB), American Veterinary Society of Animal Behavior (AVSAB) and the Society of Veterinary Behavior Technicians (SVBT): The veterinary behavioral medicine has made continuous efforts to move forward in professionalism, sophistication and technical standards of animal welfare. Millan have accomplished to take animal welfare a big step backwards
Society for the Ethological Studies of the Relationship between Animals and Humans writes that his "methods absolutely lacking in every scientific base and very dangerous for the well-being of the dogs but also for the welfare of the people.
He works with dogs other trainers wont/you dont have experience working with red zone dogs. False and false. Aggression is not a mystery because of the research done both in labs and in the field, we understand the most common causes of aggression. Aggressive behavior is normal, not red zone and it is rarely the result of dominance (some old veterinary texts say otherwise, but those were published before the resarch of the last decade).
"The AVSAB recommends that veterinarians not refer clients to trainers or behavior consultants who coach and advocate dominance hierarchy theory and the subsequent confrontational training that follows from it," the position statement says.
That statement was initiated with Millan in mind, says Dr. Laurie Bergman,Norristown, Pa., member of AVSAB's executive board.
"We had been moving away from dominance theory and punitive training techniques, unfortunately, Cesar Millan has brought it back
I had to laugh... my kids tell me that I have the equivilent of his "shh"... I snap my fingers when my kids misbehave in public, and it gets their attention in the same way... yes, it works for people too!
hey everyone, emm...i dont care if this guy is a "moron, if he is stupid, retarded, if he is selling what you concider a waste of time"...it works for me, doing what that "moron" does in this specifical area worked for my dog, i dont care either if you think its "cruel" to treat a dog this way, or if sience has prooved him wrong, im "buying" his "lies" BECAUSE THEY WORK, its not about wrong or right, its about the facts...like you said.
His understanding of dog psychology is real. If you all are just reacting to this clip and what admittedly does sound like psychobabble. Then you are missing out on really understanding the way dogs think. He is offering simple ways to use what he has learned from the study of dog packs.
It's like arguing that a baker is uneducated because he doesn't have a degree in chemistry.

Oh and chemistry has nothing to do with baking.
Mixing spices together isnt knowing ions/anions/cations/ the structure and behavior of atoms/the composition and properties of compounds/the reactions between substances with their accompanying energy exchange/the laws that unite these phenomena into a comprehensive system., etc

Milan demonstrates in every program that he does not know how dogs think (by the way, no human can ever know how or what a dog is thinking---we can only make guesses based on our knowledge of their physiology and from careful observation). Milan's method, like all traditionalists, is based on some very early studies involving captive wolves from DIFFERENT families put together. Those studies have been shown to have been significantly flawed, thus any conclusions drawn were flawed.

Dear keeg021985 , i do so much agree, but not many people do not know much about dog and wolf behavior, the best we could obtain was to get him banned from TV, we succeeded in Denmark, They are trying to get him banned in Italy as we speak, I senserely hope they succeed.
Cesar Milan does have a good heart, he means well, but his lack of knowledge is hurtfull, especially when people try it themselves at home
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
Another thing: DOGS DO NOT FORM PACKS! Period. Feral dogs form loose, transient associations due to their immense social predispositions, but they are NOT pack animals. Yet another erroneous conclusion from those early wolf 'studies.' In wolves, the only 'pack' unit is a FAMILY unit --- never unrelated wolves. Just like Milan's erroneous understanding of 'alpha.' There is NO SUCH thing as an alpha in dogs. Period. Proven beyond any doubt by actual science.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
AND--in wolf units (famiies) the ALPHA only refers to the MATING pair --- it has NOTHING to do with being the 'leader.' Yet another poorly interpreted concept is 'dominance.' Milan doesn't understand it, so he spouts the same simpleton rhetoric. Domincance in wolves and dogs strictly refers to resource aquisition --- and different dogs can be the 'dominant' at different times as circumstances involving the resources change. Oh--and I'm in a Ph.D. program in Ethology. Education DOES matter.

And yet it is so easy to get the correct information, but so few obtain it.
We try to educate doghandlers every day, and we reach af few handlers every day, but that idiot can set us back to square one with a TV-show, it makes me so angry that a man like that, with no understanding of dog behavior what so ever is allowed to turn up in television, we would do the world a big favour(especially the dogs) if he was banned from TV.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
On Danish national television he was banned years ago, his lack of understanding dogs was too damaging to the wellfare of dogs, and now Italy also wants him banned,
google this:
Campaign to ban Cesar Millans The Dog Whisperer from Italian TV
@sidneyshelbyohio His understanding of dog pyschology has been proven wrong so many times. Dogs don't live in packs and dogs don't see us as other dogs, even CM. The sooner people wake up to this fact and break down the holloywood exterior of his shows, the better for human-dog relationships around the world. He is a great listener and gives good advice in terms of promoting the want for better human-dog relationships, but sadly, his methods and psychology are well out of date.
Cesar has absolutely no clue about how the dog mind works. He only knows how to abuse dogs to get them to do what he wants. Science has shown that dogs have the same "conciousness" that we do. In fact, so do all mammals and even birds. They think, feel, plan, decide, make judgement calls, guess, etc. The effect of abuse on dogs is the same as it is on children. It reduces their capacity for planning and makes them reactive and compliant rather than proactive.
@ihamoitc2005 I have never seen cesar millan abuse an animal. Your out of your mind, so desperate for anyone to agree with you it pathetic. When in reality everyone is laughing at your assumptions. When you own 30 well balanced happy dogs, half of which are pitbulls we'll talk. Dont hate on balanced educated people when you obviously arent.
@surleyguru, you are ignorant of the facts. The evidence shows that these groups are self-emergent. This means that Millan has nothing to do with how the group behaves.

A 'balanced dog'...'three entities'...jeez--this is complete farce...stuff that Milan just makes up as he goes along. National Geographic should be ashamed that they've set the science of canine behavior back 40 years by allowing this uneducated guy have this pulpit.

More important than the mix of the dog, is the erroneous dribble that Milan spouts about submission/affection, energy, calm/submision --- ridiculous. People see this crap and actually believe it. Milan knows as much about dogs as I know about ion propulsion systems (which isn't much). If you want to see actual dog behaviorists in action, check out Dog Star Daily or better yet, read Jean Donaldson's The Culture Clash.
What IS right is that whatever all of us have learned within our own personal experiences, we continue to mold into what will work continuously for both human and dog.
I have found a method that has worked for MANY dogs,
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
Yes, well Cesars method only works about 35-40% of the time. So many dogs have gotten worse and have bitten their owners after the use of his methods.
Just because it works for YOU, does not mean it will work for everyone.

Well, he ONLY takes special, pre-approved cases. And well they arent going to show a failure on his show.
But yes he has failed, you know when he takes the owners dog and gives them another dog, he failed with the dog. Ive seen a couple episodes where he does that.

According to CBS News, a television producer who took his 5 yr. old Labrador named "Gator" to Cesar's Dog Psychology Center to be socialized and to help the dog overcome stranger anxiety, is suing Cesar Milan.
The TV producer's name is Floyd Suarez, and he's worked on the shows "8 Simple Rules", "The Book of Daniel" and "The Tick."
Gator was injured on February 26th of this year when one of Cesar's trainers supposedly put a choke chain on the dog - and then the dog was placed on a treadmill.
The lawsuit alleges that Gator collapsed after being overworked. Suarez is also claiming that the trainers delayed taking his dog to a vet and waited more than five hours to notify the dog's owner about the emergency situation.
Gator eventually had to be taken by a pet ambulance to a vet facility, and the total cost - so far - has been $20,000 in vet bills.
All I know is that after watching Cesar on so many shows, that our dogs do fairly well. His concepts are not magic; they take practice, practice, practice. I must highly recommend a treadmill to get your dog wiped out before walking him or her. We have had a treadmill for about 1 1/2 weeks now. Cesar said during one of his shows that the dogs will "want" to be on it; he's not a liar. Today, Henry stepped on and dragged his paw on the belt to let me know "fire it up". Thank You Cesar...
Cesar is my idol! hes AWESOME!!! today my dog killed a bunny.... GROSS!!! And my dad smacked her to try and get it out! Im like WHAT THE HE** IS WRONG WITH YOU!! He even didn't care though!!!! And i was calm all though it! i feel good for myself!! :D i wanna meet Cesar REALLY REALLY badly but i dont think i can...... but my aunt met him though! It was a long time ago though.... -Gina

That is pure garbage, the dogs doesn't keep track of Millan's ideas. Those who want the dog to do things, they share affection. And good trained dogs will obey... see police dogs they can be excited bu still listen to sound - something Cesar claims doesn't happen.
But even police dogs don't respond to commands the way they are supposed to. In Schutzhund training (German for Protection Dog) when the owner says "Out!" the dog releases a bite or hold on a person immediately. With Police dogs in America, you see things go the way they are not supposed to. The K9's handler will say Out multiple times and they won't let go, without that leash the police will be lost, since they use it to tug at the animal until it lets go. You dont need a leash in Schutzhund.
That's bad training, it has nothing to do with dominance or excitement or all the other things that Cesar claims. Bad training is just that, whether it's you having to say SIT a dozen times or the police dog that doesn't listen.
Good training overcomes all of these things, the problem is people are LAZY and don't want to put in the time it takes to have a good dog. They rather jab the dog until it stops doing anything.
So now Im confused, are you disagreeing w/ what Cesar says, or what someone else said? There IS alot of bad training, but when it comes to the point were the dog is unstable because its confused, it takes rehabilitation before the dog gets trained. Since affection is a reward, the dog and even some people will feed off of that and take advantage of it. If you give consistently give affection when they do something right, they'll continue it, and the same goes if you do it when theyre wrong

Fact is, Cesar's method is just a training method, its not the natural way dogs think, he just says it is then hits the dog when it does something he doesnt want, thats just the fact of the matter, ill give you links if you want
but here are some things that cesar says that are natural behaviors, that arent natural behaviors, like walking in front, SUBORDINATE wolves and dogs walk in front during travel, the pack is not all dominance, the alpha's are merely the breeding pair, not the toughest
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
ones in the pack, they are usually the oldest and most experienced of the pack
dominance in packs is done mostly with posture and growling, and not actual physical contact(hence why cesar's "bite" is not natural and proves he just uses fear, do you see dogs correct themselves like that? I sure dont, and if they did, they wouldnt need cesar now would they?)
Maybe you should check out Brad pattison for his hitting, cuffing the dog on th etop of the nose, jerking the dog around like it's a rag doll and much more.
Cesar is not abusing the dogs he touches to snap them out of their wrong behaviour, he does not in any way cause physical harm as brad "at the end of my leash" does.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
Well Brad Pattison is not as "famous" as Cesar, therefore, does not need to be addressed
These idiots can give me thumbs downs all they want, but its not going to change the fact that all Cesar is doing is hitting or kicking the dog whenever they do something he doesnt like. he is hitting/poking/touching, whatever the hell you want to call it, its not gentle, and all he is doing is making the dog associate Cesar with something the dog doesnt like, he still has no idea of pack behavior though..
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
He has no idea how dogs think, he has NEVER studied it, he is not licensed/certified in anything when it comes to dogs, he cant even train them to do simple tricks, in that dalmatian episode he called in a professional trainer to teach a dog to SIT, DOWN, AND ROLL OVER, he says im a rehabilitator(which is not a word), not a trainer, meaning "i cant do anything with a dog except poke it", this guy is an idiot
All in all, it just comes down to using the dogs fear of pain to get it to listen
I find his methods very effective and not at all cruel but it really doesnt matter i dont see why people have to scrutinize every freaken thing he does or even waste their time posting comments undermining his methods
haha... RELAX!!!! its just funny that people get all mad over seriously, nothing... cruel or not really, what does it matter he's become successful off of it and all the more power to him... i really dont care.. im happy for people who succeed and i dont have the need to try to negatively criticize or should i say hate on them because of their methods of success..... whatever the case maybe the point you're trying to prove doesnt make a difference nor does it matter its pointless budy....
Oh im sorry for trying to inform people that use his methods( usually get an even worse dog, and get bitten) that he has NO idea what he's talking about, and you should STOP using his methods, I dont see why all the blind idiots who watch his show think that he knows everything, virtually everything he says about dog behavior is wrong, people should always research things before you go ahead with it, especially negative-enforcement based training, do some research, im sure you'll be surprised.
lol....ok... i see where you're coming from but like i said what you're trying to argue will hardly make a difference if any.... i LOVE Cesar and his show, i think all the criticizing idiots just need to simply lay off, if his methods are unreasonalbe for you (speaking to everyone in general) then DONT utilize them thats all.... and i agree i dont think he knows everything but hey he's "experienced" in his own way and for many people it works so......eeh
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
Its not that they are unreasonable, its that they focus on making the dog associate all the negative things(poking, kicking, "alpha-rolling) with the trainer, with EVERY SINGLE other negative-enforcement technique, the handler tries to get the dog to NOT associate any pain/hitting/choke chains, anything that might make the dog fearful, they try to not make the dog associate that with the handler, as it makes the dog fearful of the handler, but that is the whole point of Cesar's method, fear.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
Its just a stupid and unnecessary method, and it comes with risks, it can ruin your relationship with your dog, and create an even worse dog.
Btw, dogs/wolves dont alpha-roll, the subordinates walk in front during travel, not the alpha, if you look past what he says when he "bites the dog", just look past his "breaking him out of it" speech, essentially, all he is doing is hitting or kicking the dog whenever it does something he doesnt like, its obvious, but some ppl still try to argue that.
PrometheansFire - Show everyone they are wrong by letting us know all about your dog training company. Please show us some web page where you train, proof or certification of your animal training education.
Mostly we all would love to see video of you using your "training techniques". Should be a hoot.
yes he seems to know what he is doing...and everytime i wtach his clips its really anoying when u have some jelous person writing comments about him every time cause their life sucks and they need to try and make everyone elses life shitty like theirs. Grow up and maybe take some tips from him and ur dogs might listen to u!!! PROMITHEANSFIRE!!!
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
Sorry but no one is jealous of Cesar Milan, Cesar just has no idea what he's talking about, if you do a little research, you'll find that most dog trainers/veterinarians/animal behaviorists are against his methods because all he does is use fear to control them.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
But read what I say, and watch the show, think past how people idolize him. If you just think past his little "acting like a pack leader" speech, you will see it. Its obvious.
Btw, he doesnt act like a real pack leader, I know, all of these people can give me thumbs down, but that doesnt mean they are right, just please do a little research.
I have never found more people hypocritical than you, pseudo 'positive trainers' who will even Devour their own if Someone outgrows the clique, gains an independant thought or two, and dares go against the Herd mentality.
HAHA, you two sound like two quarreling canines! Sh, sh, sh,, sh...quiet down, relax. You are both at high energy, hehe.
re: "associate fear with myself or the trainer." I believe it is not fear, but respect, that Caesar uses- as do horses within a herd.
re: "Nothing Cesar says is true." I cannot even begin to explain how happy I am that I have found your claim is not true. I am struggling, at age 39, to find any discoveries more important.
NONE of you can prove me wrong with actual resources. As you havent. I have posted MANY links on other videos, articles written by(real - unlike Cesar, who has never learned anything about animal behavior, all he did was grow up on a farm and suddenly he knows everything) animal behaviorists, veterinarians, dog trainers, and leading wolf experts, but I do not do that anymore, takes too long, although im sure you'll come across some.
Somebody sounds unbalanced. Hey Boss122334, give his program a try yourself: get out and exercise, get some discipline, and for Pete's sake find some affection- in that order, of course ;)
I guarantee you that im in better shape than you, JUST because I know something about dogs and I dont spend my time watching the dog whisperer does not mean im a fat lonely loser.... Its kind of the opposite.
I am a dog trainer and I actually have been to ABC(Animal Behavior College), as well as MSU Vet tech program.
Your little comment was...just funny, who would sink so low as to "make up" things about people they DONT KNOW. Is your life really that pathetic?
Actually, your reply below is GREAT news! You have 2 of 3 elements in play! Now, for the discipline part. Step 1) Learn to better exercise "calm"-assertive energy Step 2) Better monitor your energy levels. You are coming across as very hostile throughout this comment thread. That is a negative energy, an energy not characteristic of a sound leader. In order to learn from and experience Cesar's directives first hand, you are going to have to learn discipline in this area. Positive energy.
Energy is NOT real. My Doberman was TRAINED AND SOCIALIZED, and is a GREAT dog, she is the best dog ive ever had, she has 100% recall, and follows commands after one time every time, i bet she is better than your dog, whom you have to bully(all Cesar does it hit the dog when they do something he doesnt like, its obvious) huh?
back to energy... do you SERIOUSLY think dogs can read minds? uhm, NO, again, it just shows how naive you really are
In order for energy to be real, dogs would have to have some kind of telekinetic abilities, of which they dont.... DUH
Dogs are not these smart beings that know everything thats going on in the world and know everything your feeling and can understand every word your saying. They actually have the intelligence of a 3-4 year old child. Can your kid read your "energy"? If humans give off energy, how come other humans cant sense your energy? How would one know that dogs could? YOU CANT.
Relax bud. I work around horses 6 days a week and know from first hand experience that energy (attitude, body language, demeanor, etc) is very real and VERY easy to read for a horse. I know the same is true for dogs, from experience. They don't need telekinetic abilities. They read your eye contact, or lack of, they read your body language and your scent.
re: "Can your kid read your energy?" I know I can most certainly read my father's! When he is angry, I can read it just by the way he walks through the house without saying a peep. Even you can sense energy bud. Give your wife a list of emotions and have her demonstrate each with body language. Try and guess each emotion and see how many you get right.
Sorry but body language is not energy... body language is.. body language.... but ok
energy, according to cesar, is how you think, which would be telekinetic. he tells people to not feel fearful, or anxiety, i can feel fear and not show it.
He never says that dogs are telekinetic. Watch the video above. He demonstrates in that video alone that how you walk and carry yourself, your body language, sends off signals, the language of nature, to your dog.
Do dogs KNOW what nature is? Humans ARE animals too, are we born knowing what nature is and can we speak to the trees and all other animals? No, neither are dogs, people tend to act like animals are like all knowing creatures. "The language of nature", psssh dont make me laugh.
And yes, in his video he says mind body heart, and as I said body language is body language, apparently to energy there are to other parts. Mind and heart, which would be telekinetic. He says body mind like a million times during the vid, then he says you can have body but not mind, which again, would be telekinetic.
but i didnt ask if you, an adult, could read a humans energy, we learn body language throughout our life, we learn it by associating certain moods with certain postures, aswell as other things. But dogs arent human, and they dont have human emotions, they also cant think as deeply or understand things the way a human can. Sure a dog can get that yelling is bad, but a dog is not going to know that "calm assertive" isnt tense just because of how we hold our shoulders, or stand.
In REAL packs, the alpha is not the toughest wolf that goes around biting and correcting the others, it is usually the oldest and most experienced wolf, it is the human equivalent of a parent. The pack is the human equivalent of a family. They do NOT fight constantly for top position, and physical confrontations(like cesars alpha roll or "biting" on the neck) rarely if EVER occurs. That is how REAL packs work, not the CRAP that Cesar feeds you on tv...
re: "Energy is not real." Let's conduct a test. All those who think that there is negative energy in boss 122334's comments, please reply with your vote attached to this comment. Also vote if you think there is a positive energy or no energy.
And even if my energy is "bad". I guarantee my dobe is trained better than any of your dogs. AND she is nice with kids, other dogs, all humans pretty much.
That is NOT because i was a "calm assertive leader", but because I TRAINED AND SOCIALIZED HER. That is how you get a good dog, what do you think people did before Cesar? Do you think every single dog was unbalanced? lol, you people have NO argument.
I certainly have very little experience with dogs. You are very fortunate! I think they are great! Being that I work with horses and have a girlfriend with 3 children, my time is limited. I also think you are very fortunate to have a dobe! They are supposed to be very loyal, obedient, protective, and trustworthy. How old is she?
Cesar Milan abuses dogs in every video. His most common technique is to repeatedly stab them in the ribs with his fingertips held closely together. He kicks them frequently as well. This guy needs to be brought up on charges of animal cruelty. People are fooled by his soft voice and smooth delivery.

Balto was also able to stay on the trail in near whiteout conditions; Kaasen stated he could barely see his hand in front of his face. Balto's team did their leg of the run almost entirely in the dark."

He is in no way harming these dogs. He just touches them, puts them aside and tugs on them which does not harm the dog in no way at all, cause in a way thats also how mothers discipline their pups.
Since we cant gnaw on their necks, we tug on they're collar cause they're programmed to respond to that feeling. Cesar thinks like a dog, That's why it works. You're working around their instincts rather then force them to understand a different unfamiliar way.

In the last ten years or so, training methods have begun to be more strongly influenced by animal learning theory – operant and Pavlovian conditioning – with a resulting move toward fewer and fewer aversives. The increased and more sophisticated use of rewards allowed trainers and counselors to solve problems and install obedience more efficiently than before and without confrontations of any sort.

Milan demonstrates in every program that he does not know how dogs think (by the way, no human can ever know how or what a dog is thinking---we can only make guesses based on our knowledge of their physiology and from careful observation). Milan's method, like all traditionalists, is based on some very early studies involving captive wolves from DIFFERENT families put together. Those studies have been shown to have been significantly flawed, thus any conclusions drawn were flawed.

Another thing: DOGS DO NOT FORM PACKS! Period. Feral dogs form loose, transient associations due to their immense social predispositions, but they are NOT pack animals.

There is NO SUCH thing as an alpha in dogs. Period. Proven beyond any doubt by actual science.

AND--in wolf units (famiies) the ALPHA only refers to the MATING pair --- it has NOTHING to do with being the 'leader.' Yet another poorly interpreted concept is 'dominance.'

Domincance in wolves and dogs strictly refers to resource aquisition --- and different dogs can be the 'dominant' at different times as circumstances involving the resources change.

Cesar has absolutely no clue about how the dog mind works. He only knows how to abuse dogs to get them to do what he wants. Science has shown that dogs have the same "conciousness" that we do. In fact, so do all mammals and even birds. They think, feel, plan, decide, make judgement calls, guess, etc. The effect of abuse on dogs is the same as it is on children. It reduces their capacity for planning and makes them reactive and compliant rather than proactive.

That is pure garbage, the dogs doesn't keep track of Millan's ideas. Those who want the dog to do things, they share affection. And good trained dogs will obey... see police dogs they can be excited bu still listen to sound - something Cesar claims doesn't happen.
starswarsuck 3 years ago
But even police dogs don't respond to commands the way they are supposed to. In Schutzhund training (German for Protection Dog) when the owner says "Out!" the dog releases a bite or hold on a person immediately. With Police dogs in America, you see things go the way they are not supposed to. The K9's handler will say Out multiple times and they won't let go, without that leash the police will be lost, since they use it to tug at the animal until it lets go. You dont need a leash in Schutzhund.
caroro93morgan 3 years ago
That's bad training, it has nothing to do with dominance or excitement or all the other things that Cesar claims. Bad training is just that, whether it's you having to say SIT a dozen times or the police dog that doesn't listen.
Good training overcomes all of these things, the problem is people are LAZY and don't want to put in the time it takes to have a good dog. They rather jab the dog until it stops doing anything.
starswarsuck 3 years ago
So now Im confused, are you disagreeing w/ what Cesar says, or what someone else said? There IS alot of bad training, but when it comes to the point were the dog is unstable because its confused, it takes rehabilitation before the dog gets trained. Since affection is a reward, the dog and even some people will feed off of that and take advantage of it. If you give consistently give affection when they do something right, they'll continue it, and the same goes if you do it when theyre wrong

ones in the pack, they are usually the oldest and most experienced of the pack

Oh im sorry for trying to inform people that use his methods( usually get an even worse dog, and get bitten) that he has NO idea what he's talking about, and you should STOP using his methods, I dont see why all the blind idiots who watch his show think that he knows everything, virtually everything he says about dog behavior is wrong, people should always research things before you go ahead with it, especially negative-enforcement based training, do some research, im sure you'll be surprised.
boss122334 3 years ago
lol....ok... i see where you're coming from but like i said what you're trying to argue will hardly make a difference if any.... i LOVE Cesar and his show, i think all the criticizing idiots just need to simply lay off, if his methods are unreasonalbe for you (speaking to everyone in general) then DONT utilize them thats all.... and i agree i dont think he knows everything but hey he's "experienced" in his own way and for many people it works so......eeh

Its not that they are unreasonable, its that they focus on making the dog associate all the negative things(poking, kicking, "alpha-rolling) with the trainer, with EVERY SINGLE other negative-enforcement technique, the handler tries to get the dog to NOT associate any pain/hitting/choke chains, anything that might make the dog fearful, they try to not make the dog associate that with the handler, as it makes the dog fearful of the handler, but that is the whole point of Cesar's method, fear.

Its just a stupid and unnecessary method, and it comes with risks, it can ruin your relationship with your dog, and create an even worse dog.
Btw, dogs/wolves dont alpha-roll, the subordinates walk in front during travel, not the alpha, if you look past what he says when he "bites the dog", just look past his "breaking him out of it" speech, essentially, all he is doing is hitting or kicking the dog whenever it does something he doesnt like, its obvious, but some ppl still try to argue that.

PrometheansFire - Show everyone they are wrong by letting us know all about your dog training company. Please show us some web page where you train, proof or certification of your animal training education.
Mostly we all would love to see video of you using your "training techniques". Should be a hoot.

Sorry but no one is jealous of Cesar Milan, Cesar just has no idea what he's talking about, if you do a little research, you'll find that most dog trainers/veterinarians/animal behaviorists are against his methods because all he does is use fear to control them.
boss122334 3 years ago
His methods seem to work.
He is not using fear, he is using language that animals understand.
They do not think the same way humans do.

But read what I say, and watch the show, think past how people idolize him. If you just think past his little "acting like a pack leader" speech, you will see it. Its obvious.
Btw, he doesnt act like a real pack leader, I know, all of these people can give me thumbs down, but that doesnt mean they are right, just please do a little research.
boss122334 2 years ago
You and of your kind Disgusted me,
I have never found more people hypocritical than you, pseudo 'positive trainers' who will even Devour their own if Someone outgrows the clique, gains an independant thought or two, and dares go against the Herd mentality.

Oh your so smart, you cant even spell independent.
I am not a positive trainer, just a trainer that uses methods that try to NOT make the dog associate any fear with myself or the trainer.
You and your kind disgust me, blind idiots following a false god.
Nothing Cesar says is true, do a little research and im sure your world will come crashing down.
boss122334 2 years ago
HAHA, you two sound like two quarreling canines! Sh, sh, sh,, sh...quiet down, relax. You are both at high energy, hehe.
re: "associate fear with myself or the trainer." I believe it is not fear, but respect, that Caesar uses- as do horses within a herd.
re: "Nothing Cesar says is true." I cannot even begin to explain how happy I am that I have found your claim is not true. I am struggling, at age 39, to find any discoveries more important.
mikedilv 2 years ago
Really? Where have you found my claim not true? OBVIOUSLY not from doing your research, was it from your own little brain?
Associating fear- Oh so you think bullying gets respect? No, pushing something around and making it do what you want does not get respect, but FEAR.
Idiot.
boss122334 2 years ago
How naive are you people?
NONE of you can prove me wrong with actual resources. As you havent. I have posted MANY links on other videos, articles written by(real - unlike Cesar, who has never learned anything about animal behavior, all he did was grow up on a farm and suddenly he knows everything) animal behaviorists, veterinarians, dog trainers, and leading wolf experts, but I do not do that anymore, takes too long, although im sure you'll come across some.
boss122334 2 years ago
I will stop bashing Cesar if one of you provides me with an article written by an animal behaviorist, that says Cesar is right.
It is my challenge for you.
I see all of you as naive little children. I cant believe how stupid someone can be, especially someone that is 39.
boss122334 2 years ago
Somebody sounds unbalanced. Hey Boss122334, give his program a try yourself: get out and exercise, get some discipline, and for Pete's sake find some affection- in that order, of course ;)
mikedilv 2 years ago
Really? because you know me right? I run an hour a day, and as for affection - im married.
Really nice (pathetic)argument
boss122334 2 years ago
I guarantee you that im in better shape than you, JUST because I know something about dogs and I dont spend my time watching the dog whisperer does not mean im a fat lonely loser.... Its kind of the opposite.
I am a dog trainer and I actually have been to ABC(Animal Behavior College), as well as MSU Vet tech program.
Your little comment was...just funny, who would sink so low as to "make up" things about people they DONT KNOW. Is your life really that pathetic?
boss122334 2 years ago
Actually, your reply below is GREAT news! You have 2 of 3 elements in play! Now, for the discipline part. Step 1) Learn to better exercise "calm"-assertive energy Step 2) Better monitor your energy levels. You are coming across as very hostile throughout this comment thread. That is a negative energy, an energy not characteristic of a sound leader. In order to learn from and experience Cesar's directives first hand, you are going to have to learn discipline in this area. Positive energy.
mikedilv 2 years ago
You sound like such an idiot, holy crap.....
Energy is NOT real. My Doberman was TRAINED AND SOCIALIZED, and is a GREAT dog, she is the best dog ive ever had, she has 100% recall, and follows commands after one time every time, i bet she is better than your dog, whom you have to bully(all Cesar does it hit the dog when they do something he doesnt like, its obvious) huh?
back to energy... do you SERIOUSLY think dogs can read minds? uhm, NO, again, it just shows how naive you really are
boss122334 2 years ago
In order for energy to be real, dogs would have to have some kind of telekinetic abilities, of which they dont.... DUH
Dogs are not these smart beings that know everything thats going on in the world and know everything your feeling and can understand every word your saying. They actually have the intelligence of a 3-4 year old child. Can your kid read your "energy"? If humans give off energy, how come other humans cant sense your energy? How would one know that dogs could? YOU CANT.
boss122334 2 years ago
Relax bud. I work around horses 6 days a week and know from first hand experience that energy (attitude, body language, demeanor, etc) is very real and VERY easy to read for a horse. I know the same is true for dogs, from experience. They don't need telekinetic abilities. They read your eye contact, or lack of, they read your body language and your scent.
mikedilv 2 years ago
re: "Can your kid read your energy?" I know I can most certainly read my father's! When he is angry, I can read it just by the way he walks through the house without saying a peep. Even you can sense energy bud. Give your wife a list of emotions and have her demonstrate each with body language. Try and guess each emotion and see how many you get right.
mikedilv 2 years ago
Sorry but body language is not energy... body language is.. body language.... but ok
energy, according to cesar, is how you think, which would be telekinetic. he tells people to not feel fearful, or anxiety, i can feel fear and not show it.
boss122334 2 years ago
He never says that dogs are telekinetic. Watch the video above. He demonstrates in that video alone that how you walk and carry yourself, your body language, sends off signals, the language of nature, to your dog.
mikedilv 2 years ago
Do dogs KNOW what nature is? Humans ARE animals too, are we born knowing what nature is and can we speak to the trees and all other animals? No, neither are dogs, people tend to act like animals are like all knowing creatures. "The language of nature", psssh dont make me laugh.
boss122334 2 years ago
And yes, in his video he says mind body heart, and as I said body language is body language, apparently to energy there are to other parts. Mind and heart, which would be telekinetic. He says body mind like a million times during the vid, then he says you can have body but not mind, which again, would be telekinetic.
boss122334 2 years ago
Seriously, grow up and do some research, stop being gullible and naive.
boss122334 2 years ago
but i didnt ask if you, an adult, could read a humans energy, we learn body language throughout our life, we learn it by associating certain moods with certain postures, aswell as other things. But dogs arent human, and they dont have human emotions, they also cant think as deeply or understand things the way a human can. Sure a dog can get that yelling is bad, but a dog is not going to know that "calm assertive" isnt tense just because of how we hold our shoulders, or stand.
boss122334 2 years ago
Again, eye contact and body language are not energy, actually, in dog language, eye contact is a challenge. Not a sign of a calm dog.
boss122334 2 years ago
In REAL packs, the alpha is not the toughest wolf that goes around biting and correcting the others, it is usually the oldest and most experienced wolf, it is the human equivalent of a parent. The pack is the human equivalent of a family. They do NOT fight constantly for top position, and physical confrontations(like cesars alpha roll or "biting" on the neck) rarely if EVER occurs. That is how REAL packs work, not the CRAP that Cesar feeds you on tv...

re: "Energy is not real." Let's conduct a test. All those who think that there is negative energy in boss 122334's comments, please reply with your vote attached to this comment. Also vote if you think there is a positive energy or no energy.
mikedilv 2 years ago
I really dont care what my energy is on the internet with you idiots
boss122334 2 years ago
And even if my energy is "bad". I guarantee my dobe is trained better than any of your dogs. AND she is nice with kids, other dogs, all humans pretty much.
That is NOT because i was a "calm assertive leader", but because I TRAINED AND SOCIALIZED HER. That is how you get a good dog, what do you think people did before Cesar? Do you think every single dog was unbalanced? lol, you people have NO argument.
boss122334 2 years ago
I certainly have very little experience with dogs. You are very fortunate! I think they are great! Being that I work with horses and have a girlfriend with 3 children, my time is limited. I also think you are very fortunate to have a dobe! They are supposed to be very loyal, obedient, protective, and trustworthy. How old is she?
mikedilv 2 years ago
Your 39 and have a girlfriend? Getting cold feet or what?
Jeez I was married at 21
(btw im not trying to insult just asking)
anyway she is 4 on march 23
boss122334 2 years ago
Too many great women to settle on one for life. I was married once for two years, in my 20s. Do you have any other dogs?
mikedilv 2 years ago
Not at the moment but im looking into a Rottie.
But in the past I have had a 3 Shiba's, a Lab, a Boxer, and I grew up with a Bouvier Des Flandres.
What about you? You say you dont have much experience with dogs, do you own one at the moment?
