I just love the dog whisperer [Cesar Millan].  Just an unbelievable man with those animals.

The episode of South Park that he was on was one of the best.

The wind for their watcher, the wave for their shroud,
Where palm and pandanus shall whisper forever,
A requiem fitting for heroes

The dog whisperer owes a lot to video editing.  You never see the parts where he gets bit...  and he gets bit alot.

His techniques have some merit, but they are also simplistic.  Nobody benifits from a one size fits all approach.

The kids look a little 'upset' at the Buffalo's quantity of parental attention....

the dog whisper is 99% common sense and 1% luck.

the majority of those who "need" the dog whisper, should not have had a pet to start with

just as 100% of those who need the nanny from that retard show, should not have been permitted to breed....

I think you're right. Most of the time, I did see that he was training the owners, not the pets.

That guy is AWESOME!

We had a problem where our German Shepherd would jump all over me when I cam home.  It's really no big deal if you have a Chihuahua or poodle, but when "man's best friend" is 85 lbs of muscle jumps all over you (paws with claws) everyday it's not much fun.

My wife saw an episode on it on his show and in one day--I came home and he was just sitting there, wagging his tail.


That guy knows dogs.

Cesar says he trains owners and rehabilitates dogs, too many people treat dogs like people, they are not people , they are dogs, pack animals, they do not need or want a friend, they want a pack leader.

my two labs know who their pack leader is.

Not exactly all dogs, but have a look.

It was very interesting to carry out the flight trials at Rechlin with the Spitfire and the Hurricane. Both types are very simple to fly compared to our aircraft, and childishly easy to take-off and land. (Werner Mölders)

Thank you. If its one thing that drives me nuts, and usually the dog, is people treating them like people.

Blame Walt Disney for that.

My wife is pretty awesome when it comes to training dogs.
She had a Dobie that we had quite a few years ago obeying hand signals in less than an hour.
I have seen her do this many times with many different dogs.
I asked her once how she did that so easily.
She said that she has lots of experience dealing with dogs after living with me so many years.
I haven`t repeated the inquiry. :)
