"All ways are good, that do not harm the dog". so goes the mission, vision and values of Cesar and Ilusion Millan and their team! if a dog is harmed using techniques shown by Cesar in any of his products, then it is NOT Cesar's Way!
Aside from the hundreds of dogs who have been directly saved from being euthanized by Cesar's behavior modification techniques, there are email lists on yahoo and google where one can see the thousands of success stories of people who have achieved long term behavior changes utilizing the information provided in both is books, CD's and DVD. The email list recommended in Cesar's monthly newsletter has had 14,500 members and has a publically viewable archive demonstrating how these dog owners have applied Cesar's sol;utions to their own unique needs and environments.
My video shows ten clear examples where I have used Cesar's techniques safely and effectively, on dogs that had been given upbeing on by the rescues who brought them to me as a last chance rehab, before euthanizing for their "unfixable" problems.

This is the 2nd book I have read of his. It does explain that dogs see, hear, smell and understand the world differently than we humans do. What a great start for any dog owner!
Very satisfied February 24, 2008

I watch as many "Dog Whisperer" episodes as I can. I seem to always learn something new. He refers to a lot of the episodes in the book and it's nice to have, in writing, what you can try. Cesar also explains more of the general psychology with dogs and it's very helpful. I'm not done with the book yet, but it's hard to put down when I get a chance to read some of it.
Must read for any serious dog owner February 13, 2008

Having read Cesar's Way, I have to say that Be The Pack Leader is the better of the two books. It gives great examples of his work and offers some interesting academic and research insights into the principles of dog psychology.
I do have to say that some areas of the book drag a bit and being an avid watcher of his show, many of the case studies are just repeats of the lessons learned from the show. I think fewer recaps of the show and more follow-ups to some of the stories introduced to the show would have made this book better for me. For non-viewers of the show, the case studies are perfect.
Personally, the best thing about this book is the Appendix at the back. It offers a "cliff notes" version of his tips which makes it easily digestible and can become a quick reference for dealing with specific problems that you are facing. It is a better alternative than thumbing through 250 pages to find what you are looking for.
