No, I wouldn’t want to waste my time reading a crappy trainer’s book. I’d much rather read a good book that was written by a REAL trainer.

at 1st some of his methods seemed like a crock to me and watching the show i thought he made it look to easy to be true, but after trying some of his techniques i realize he knows what hes talking about
stine i must have missed this giant country wide backlash caused by cesars training methods…. and hmmm i guess i missed all the episodes where cesars made dogs become frozen in fear relax hes just a dog trainer jeeze

The techniques you seem to want attributed to this TV guy aren’t his and never have been — they are techniques that have always been utilized and often times, as with this TV guy, incorrectly and without a lot of long term success — read the disclaimer please. Trainers have more than once doctrine and know that dogs, like people, vary and a good trainer has tons of variable techniques to train an animal. When your dog is stupid enough to think you are a dog and not a human, well, that is one limited dog!
P. T. Barnum was oh so right! hahaha

I LOVE him and his techniques. He REALLY understands how the dog thinks. Did you see him on Jay Leno with (I think) RedMan’s pittbull?! That was AWESOME!

I credit Caeser wtih the friendship I have with my rescue husky mix. Why, that man is awesome in my opinion, I learned so much from watching him on TV.
My dog and I are very close and I feel some gratitude toward Cesar.
Honestly.

Absolutely not. As he says himself, he is not a trainer, he rehabilitates dogs. And I don’t even like his attempts of that. He is one of the worst things that have happened to humane dog training in the last 10 years. His training methods are causing backlash all over the country with dogs that have to be retrained by non-confrontational dog trainers after the owners have tried to apply his methods.
His theories are based on old ideas that were disputed 20 years ago, and his assumptions about wolf pack behavior are incorrect.
What he calls calm submission is usually frozen in fear.
I was fooled, too, in the beginning because it sounded so good, but then I listened to other trainers’ comments and looked closer at his claims and realized what he was really saying and doing.
His methods are downright dangerous to people and dogs alike.

The dog to get the show he is amazing use his techniques on my friends dogs and have even trained some of my dogs and have even trained some of my dogs the best thing about it is that it is that it usualy only takes few.
The best thing about it usualy only takes few minutes for the dog to get the message.

Unfortunately his techniques are not appropriate for many dogs, which is why he has a disclaimer on his show (Don’t try this at home!). He has dug up old punishment based training techniques that have been replaced by other more modern techniques that are appropriate for all dogs. Sure he’s got a way with dogs, but most owners are not Cesar and they end up doing things ‘their way’ not his way and doing it wrong. There are much better trainers and training techniques out there, but they don’t get the tv time. too bad.
