I will wait until the case has been tried and the evidence heard, I will not believe someone is guilty just because they got sued.
I don't need to see how this case turns out to know about the horrible methods this man applies to "help" dogs.

"Flooding" to try and make a dog overcome its fears is NEVER a good a idea, is DANGEROUS, and can mentally DAMAGE a dog.

This man deems himself a 'Dog Whisperer', a Dog Psycologist,.. yet he has never taken any college courses to actully learn behavioral psychology.

I am only sad that I do not have the National Geographic channel. I am looking forward to the new training series with Ken Ramirez. He sounds like a phenomenal trainer, and a GOOD example to learn from.
