Product Description Bestselling author Cesar Millan takes his principles of dog psychology a step further, showing you how to develop the calm-assertive energy of a successful pack leader and use it to improve your dog’s life–and your own.
Filled with practical tips and techniques as well as real-life success stories from his clients (including the Grogan family, owners of Marley from Marley & Me) and his popular television show Dog Whisperer with Cesar Millan, Cesar helps you understand and read your dog’s energy as well as your own so that you can move beyond just correcting behavioral issues and take your connection with your dog to the next level.
The principles of calm-assertive energy will help you become a better pack leader in every area of your life, improving your relationships with friends, family, and coworkers.
In addition, Cesar addresses several important issues for the first time, including what you need to know about the major dog behavior tools available and the difference between “personality” and “instability.”
Ultimately, what emerges from Be the Pack Leader are both happier dogs and happier, more centered owners.

Fabulous! May 14, 2008 I have read Cesars books and learned a lot from them but hearing him speak and explain his methods makes it so much more enjoyable as well as memorable. I can listen to it over and over and learn more each time.
a must have for a " parent" of a strong-minded dog May 8, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
the book (especially at the end ) gives very specific instruction on taking action in situation where your dog may want to step into pack leader's shoes (walks, exiting, entering, feeding, vet visit etc). Still lots of stories (like in Cesar's Way) of solved problems but good specific remedies. Important book to read if you have a dog- just like watching Cesar's "Dog Whisperer" on Nat'l Geographic channel.
The BEST dog behaviorist in the world! April 28, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
This man is just amazing... I watch every episode and am always just so pleased. His books are terrific - I recommend the books and the show to everyone.
Occasionally, I see something on the Internet about how he is "cruel" or some other such rubbish. Hardly! It's cruel to persist in keeping a dog from being what he was made to be... a DOG. Cesar shows you how to help your dog become a balanced, good, canine citizen. He's brilliant and his techniques work.
I highly recommend this book. It's well written, well organized, and very enjoyable.
Cesar Millan..........ANSWER MAN!! April 23, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Many books have been recommended on dog training, but Cesar's is by far #1 on our list. His approach in helping us understand the canine view of life makes so much sense. Even after a few pages the reader can start implementing his ideas and THEY WORK!!! He talks to us in a language that we can understand and apply. He addresses how to communicate with your dog, not teach him how to do tricks. His advice works!! The "tricks" come so much easier when you can properly communicate. He addresses consistency in living with your dog. It sounds so simple and makes so much sense that one might wonder if that is important. IT IS!!! Thank you Cesar. The canine/human world is better for having you in it and sharing your wise advice. You are truly the Dog Whisperer.
My German Shepherd Dogs thank you too. They really appreciated it when they could finally understand us a little more!! ;-) They are most grateful that we have finally addressed the necessity of "consistency". We are all much happier as a result.
New Puppy April 20, 2008 Watched Cesar on TV, enjoyed his program. The book is good, but a lot of repeating of his shows.
