Product Description You've seen Cesar on TV and you think it's a miracle and you want to have that "miracle" too. In our opinion, Cesar's Way will not give you the miracle you're hoping for. It's a book about Cesar Millan's philosophy, being the leader of a dog pack, and has very little guidance for training a dog. If you do read the book, please do not alpha roll your dog under any circumstance. You or someone you love very much could get bitten. If you have an aggressive or "red zone" dog, please seek positive professional help. SitStay carries Millan's book because we want to turn you on to something better...positive dog training. We have lots of books that you should look at. We love our dogs and we know you love yours. The SitStay Dogs are trained with purely positive training. Have you heard of clicker training? It's fast, easy, and fun for everyone. Dogs love it and it truly can work miracles! Do we totally disagree with Cesar Millan? No, we also think that dogs should get lots and lots and lots of walking/running with the people in their lives. We agree that exercise is a big part of a happy and healthy life for both you and your dog. Dogs are the best exercise machines ever invented and they are happiest when getting exercise. Put on your shoes, grab a leash, and go! Your dog will love you for it! ( 2006, Hardcover, 300 pages)
Amazon.com Fans of the National Geographic Channel's The Dog Whisperer with Cesar Millan will be grateful for Cesar's Way, an accessible guide to help new and current dog owners better understand the needs of their beloved pets. If you are not yet a fan, try to catch a couple of episodes of the remarkable show--you will be amazed, impressed, and motivated to create a healthier, more fulfilling relationship with your dog. In Cesar's Way, Cesar explains that dogs are not complicated, and despite what various owners think--not human. They rely on three key elements in their lives: exercise, discipline, and affection (in that order). "Problem dogs" can be attributed to "problem owners," owners who don't understand and misinterpret their dog's behavior. Cesar's Way is really a training program for dog owners, with chapters devoted to understanding the "power of the pack," taking responsibility for "how we screw up our dogs," and learning how to manage aggression. Cesar's book (a must-have for new and old dog owners) moves beyond basic obedience school techniques, and teaches owners how to change unwanted behavior by better understanding their "best friends." --Daphne Durham Exclusive Video from Cesar Millan

Cesar Millan's Top 5 Tips for Going to the Dog Park
1. Make sure your dog is spayed or neutered, has all her shots, and is in good health. Under no circumstances should you bring a sick dog to a dog park!
2. Do not use the dog park as a substitute for the walk! If you drive to the park, leave your car a block away and take your dog on a vigorous walk of at least thirty-five minutes to drain some of her energy. Never take an over-excited dog to the park.
3. While at the park, don't "punch out" on your calm-assertive leadership. Be aware of your dog at all times, and take responsibility for her behavior.
4. A calm-submissive dog will not attract another dog's aggression--but an excited dog, a weak, timid dog, or an aggressive dog can become a fight-magnet.
5. Know your dog! If your dog has poor social skills, is overly fearful or is dog aggressive, or if you have not yet established your calm-assertive leadership with your dog, find a more controlled way to introduce her to the company of other dogs, such as "play dates" with one or two other dog owners.

Fantastic Guide for Dog Lovers May 15, 2008 Cesar does it again with a great book. If you're an animal lover overall with horses as well, then Joe Camp's book "Soul of A Horse" will also touch your heart and teach you many things about animals and life in general. The Soul of a Horse: Life Lessons from the Herd

Cesar knows what goes on it a dogs head. It all put out in clear easy to understand language. I would recommend this book to any person who is a dog owner or before they become one. Its an update to some very old thinking about dog training. Definitely a must have.
A Must Read for Any Dog Owner April 19, 2008 A must read for ANY dog owner! You won't truelly understand how to love and care for your dog until you read this book!
Cesar's Way April 17, 2008 Excellent book. Explains in a way you can really understand your dog more and cure there behavioral issues, excercise, feeding, etc. Would recommend this book to every dog owner.
Cesar's Way April 16, 2008 Cesar's Way: The Natural, Everyday Guide to Understanding and Correcting Common Dog Problems
I recently became the owner of a four year old Standard Poodle (named Blinky). The minute Blinky walked in the door it became very clear that it wanted to be the boss and run the show. As time progressed Blinky became more assertive and was dictating to me what the routine was. Corrective action was urgently needed. I had never heard of Cesar Millan before but decided to puchase the book based on other reviews I read. I have found the book to be brillant and have quickly achieved remarkable results with Blinky. I now clearly understand the importance of demonstrating to Blinky that I am the pack leader and NOT treating Blinky like she is a human. I have read some negative comments about Cesar Millan's tranining methods but all I can say is that they work and I have not had to spend hundreds of dollars going to a dog training specialist.
