Cesar Millan came to America wading up to his neck across the Rio Grande. After living on the street he found a job at a dog groomers, handling the tough cases. After marrying Illusion he became a US citizen. From this beginning there is now a wealth of jobs created from THE DOG WHISPERER.
Cesar, with the help of Illusion, their two sons and other workers, are responsible for the rescue of dogs who would have been put down, or returned to a shelter. Many more owners have learned how to be the "pack leader" so they can keep, and have a rewarding relationship with their dogs.
Some people think that Cesar is too harsh with some dogs. There is even one woman who thinks she can do everything Cesar can by using treats. But I've never seen her calm a "red dog." That's Cesar's name for the dogs that are a danger to other dogs and people, and are the cases he says have put him on the map. I've also never seen the treat lady (who I'm not criticizing because she also has helped some dogs) work with the number Cesar rehabilitates, many at the same time.
There is a dog rehabilitation center where forty to fifty dogs live happily together under Cesar and his workers' care. It's not extravagant, but the dogs have activities and facilities that allow problem dogs to have group therapy, learning from the well-adjusted pack. These dogs sometimes take weeks or more to learn to become calm and submissive. But more often Cesar and crew achieve this in a day or two, or even within an hour. The biggest problem is getting the owners to carry through. Usually when they see the results, they are more than happy to do so. Now if we could just get more parents to be the pack leader with their kids!

Hi Linda,
I really enjoy your site. I can tell you put a lot of time into your posts.
I am a professional dog trainer in Chicago and studied with Jean Donaldson in San Francisco. I work with aggressive dogs all the time, and NEVER use rough methods like Cesar.
I think you might enjoy looking through my site. I have a lot of posts about aggression as well as a radio show.
I also have instant-access videos on a variety of topics.
Keep up the great work!

Hi Linda,
I love your site. When it comes to the rougher methods of Cesar Millan and anyone who uses those techiques, there's never been "the only and right way" for certain sitations like these. Behavioral issues in general are treated and approached in the most beneficial matters for the patient by means of a variety of strategies. Cesar Millan doesn't recommend only his techniques for training dogs, but reminds audiences to consult other professionals before taking any action. Like any trainer whose being sought, he offers his opinion due to the success of his approach. I think it's disappointing when there are articles like the "Anti-Millan" headline in the Times due to other trainers, whether highly educated or just beginning, express their resentment for methods gaining more recognition than their own. Opinions are opinions despite the lights and cameras. His methods work and there's truth behind his theology, just like other trainers with diff methods.
Keep on posting! Keep us updated!
