@Megabites46 you can not just say shh and expect a dog to listen. you have to use your energy , eye contact and a slight touch if neccessary then follow up through untill the dog surrenders and then back away slowly. telling him to be quiet won't work. in time the dog will learn what behavior you as the pack leader want to receive by only hearing the shh sound. at that time no touch is needed.

@CptMartha Dr Nicholas Dodman has this to say about leadership and pack mentality: "So I think that leadership is very important because of the pack mentality of dogs. If you are the leader, I don’t think that the dog is unhappy about having you as the leader. And when the owner takes clear control through a non-confrontational dominance program, you can almost hear the dog sigh with relief. It’s as if they are saying, “My god, for a minute I thought it was me who was in charge here.”

@CptMartha wow, congratulations, you managed to find 1 website that collates all the information that disagrees with cesar millan and you just list them all on here. probably could have just directed me to the website for me to look at myself (which I found). When compairing Cesar to a dog behaviour specialist who has 8 years training, I would expect the behaviour specialist to have better methods than Cesar who is self taught. It is like compairing Dr Phill to a Phsychologist

@CptMartha Clearly you have never seen a large family of dogs before. I have stayed with a breader before, and there clearly is a pack environment. A dogs brain is not as developed as a human. I have no doubt thate there are other, and likely better ways to produce the same results, however that is not to say that Cesar's methods don't work. I wonder if you are one of those people that believes once a dog bites a human, it can't be rehabilitated and needs to be killed. Cesar doesn't believe that

I wish youtube would allow more characters to be posted so I can show you just how stupid you are.

Jean Donaldson, The San Francisco SPCA-Director of The Academy for Dog Trainers
“ A profession that has been making steady gains in its professionalism, technical sophistication and humane standards has been greatly set back. I have long been deeply troubled by the popularity of Mr. Millan as so many will emulate him. To co-opt a word like ‘whispering’ for arcane, violent and technically unsound practice is unconscionable.”

@michaelkitselaar In Dogs: A Startling New Understanding of Canine Origin Behavior & Evolution, Ray and Lorna Coppinger write: "Today, the popular dog press seems to feel that if dogs descended from wolves, they would have wolf qualities. But the natural selection model points out that the wolf qualities are severely modified. Dogs do not think like wolves, nor do they behave like them."

Jean Donaldson, SPCA Director of Academy for Dog Trainers said:
“Practices such as physically confronting aggressive dogs and using choke collars for fearful dogs are outrageous by even the most diluted dog training standards.”

@michaelkitselaar Dr. Nicholas Dodman, Director of Animal Behaviour Clinic at Cummings School of Veterinary Medicine said:
“Cesar Millan's methods are based on flooding and punishment. The results, though immediate, will only be transitory. His methods are misguided, outmoded, in some cases dangerous and often inhumane. You would not want to be a dog under his sphere of influence. The sad thing is the public does not recognise the error of his ways"
-
@michaelkitselaar So why is it that so many professionals (which Millan is not, he's just a dude who grew up on a farm) call Millan out on his bullshit? His dog Daddy is fucking broken too, just look at the way it acts. Also, dogs are not wolves, they evolved along humans. They don't have Alphas. Do some god damned research you moron.
Uhhh......Did anyone see that terrier's eyes turned red?
