wonderful book!! April 4, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I found this book to be extremely eye opening. Although a lot of what I read didn't make me happy, it does make total sense. I was hoping it would tell you how to become more calm assertive, but I think Be The Pack Leader might do that more. I would definetely recommend this book.
Cesar's way, the logical way... March 28, 2008 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
Cesar Millan is truly in tune with dogs.
This is one fantastic book, not loaded down with an autobiography or given over to "name dropping" of celebrities.
Millan is so transparently a down to earth, real time guy who has what it takes to communicate with dogs and to pass on that knowledge to their human owners.
Millan's techniques, while ridiculed by other lesser "behaviourists" or "trainers", get to the heart of the matter immediately with no "fluffing" of the situation.
The techniques used by Millan are completely dog friendly, non threatening, non invasive and are not cruel to the animal.
In a truly professional manner, Millan assesses each dog on its own situation - he does not have a "1 solution fits all" approach to the animals, simply because that cannot and does not work.
Millan, correctly, describes his subjects as "Animal, dog, breed, name" and subtly shows that the owners or handlers can also be categorised the same way, "Animal, homo-sapien, Caucasian/Asian/Latin, name". If owners can see that, then the relationship between man and dog becomes so much more "calm".
Millan is one of the true geniuses of the dog world. Other trainers, sit up and take note. Treat a dog like a dog and suddenly the balance of the relationship equalises. It is so simple, all it takes is that basic understanding.
Highly recommended and highly readable.
All Hail Ceasar! March 19, 2008 Awesome!Magnificent!Unbelievable. And that's just me. The book is even better.Seriously,this has not been on the bestseller-list for nothing.
Interesting approach to dog training ... March 19, 2008 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
I purchased this book for a friend who may be kind to her nice dog but is also extremely inattentive to him, actually telling me one day (to my utter dismay) that she "takes good care of her dog because she feeds him twice a day". She also told me she didn't want to train him to go on walks. After standing by for 4 frustrating years and doing what I could to get the dog out walking on my own, I decided on yet one more approach to see if she would connect with him: I gave her this book. I read it first and liked it a lot. My friend read it as well and as a result started to train her dog following Cesar's methods! At least she was intrigued enough to give it a try. I hope her enthusiasm lasts... Thank you Cesar! Your influence reaches far beyond _dog_ training :)
Cesar Milan for President!! March 19, 2008 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
I think if Cesar Milan ran this country, we would all be better off. This book, of course, is first-rate. We love it. Cesar is so anecdotal - and he uses techniques that work.
