I will quote a friend of mine..
I agree with her 110%."I greatly discourage anyone from trying Milan's methods. While he has some good suggestions about leadership and not babying dogs, his actual methods are generally too harsh imo. I've seen him give strong leash correction *on a head halter* which is never a good idea due to injury risks to the neck and associated parts - head halters are designed to guide and prevent behavior in conjunction with training, not as a correctional device alone.
In addition, check out the body language of the dogs he works with, if you've read Turid Ruugas' books you'll recognize that the dogs are throwing off calming signals like crazy - they are *not* comfortable with the methods they are forced to endure and are obviously distressed imo. Milan is lucky he has the strength to pull off such corrections and treatment, especially on headstrong/physically powerful dogs.
Episodes are also heavily edited, so viewers don't see the whole process, which can cause problems all its own. There is a disclaimer on the show to not try the methods shown on your own too btw."
"Did you ever notice when you blow in a dog's face he gets mad at you?
But when you take him in a car he sticks his head out the window." -- Steve Bluestone
