Post by Fools Gold »

Have any of you seen this show presented by Cesar Millan.I watched it yesterday and found some of his training a little harsh,but it seemed to work well for the dog.

Some of what he says makes sense.

A lot of what he says is wrong (dominance, wolf behaviour theory type stuff).

A lot of what he does is dangerous and some of it is in my opinion abusive.

I've watched the programme a couple of times, his methods are very dangerous. One episode ( never saw this one ) had a sheltie that would bark at the toaster, his solution trap the dog in a corner and have the toaster pop in the poor animals face :cry: . There was also the time when he had an aggressive/dominant dog to deal with, his idea of sorting the dog was to throw it in beside his pack and that they would sort the dog out. The man should be banned or better still thrown in beside a pack of dog owners so they could sort him out :D.
