Thank god someone shares my views on that man.

Agreed

I have no opinion about the man because I have never listened to him, read his book, nor have I watched him on tv (except on Oprah). I have no opinion of him, but I have surely read plenty of opinions of him, mostly positive. This sheds a different light, for sure. I will have to look a little more closely at him.

Thanks for posting this. I think it helps to hear both sides.

I have a question... what is so wrong about Cesar Millian??

I too am against Cesear Milan, everytime I see his show I cringe at his methodes and the poor dogs.

Actually, I've never seen his shows but I've read articles on him and I pulled one of his moves the other day. You have to understand, almost all other methods of training have not really worked with Niño. I was walking him, and even after we played in the yard to let him release some energy he was still pulling badly, despite me stopping him for 2 seconds every time he pulled (ONLY thing that's worked to heal him) He's usually (finally, took 6 years) pretty good at healing now but that day he was wearing a buckle collar and being testy, really, and I didn't want him to hurt himself on the collar so I reached down and used a soft but stern voice, and lifted his front feet about and inch off of the ground for one second supporting him by the head and neck the way sheep exhibitors do in the ring. After that, he had calmed down and settled in nicley and I praised him a lot. He was happily but submissivley trotting along wagging his tail. (And not that scared wag either)
