If you give only 80 percent leadership, your dog will give you 80 percent following. And the other 20 percent of the time he will run the show. If you give your dog any opportunity for him to lead you, he will take it.

More quotes by Cesar Millan
People say I train dogs, but in many ways I train people.
Cesar Millan
People with strong breeds are trying to be in control because their dog is labeled as aggressive or dangerous. That tells us how ignorant we are even though we love dogs.
Cesar Millan
The dog is a reflection of your energy, of your behavior. You have to ask, 'What am I doing?' That's the right question to ask.
Cesar Millan
Whenever I've been bitten, it's because I made a mistake. I either misread the dog's body language or let my guard down at the wrong time.
Cesar Millan
My dogs have been my most loyal friends and constant companions.
Cesar Millan
Discipline isn't about showing a dog who's boss it's about taking responsibility for a living creature you have brought into your world.
Cesar Millan
Love is leading. People think it has to be two different roles but it is the same.
Cesar Millan
I have always been honest with my fans, which means being open about any struggles I have had along the way.
Cesar Millan
The pack is very important for a dog. Once you give him the right pack and the right energy, you look at him.
Cesar Millan
You can also hurt a dog if it's insecure, if a dog is nervous and then you try to pet him, you can make him more nervous. It's not just the aggressive dogs that you can get hurt. It's also the dogs that you can actually hurt. It works both ways.
Cesar Millan
I think my life has everything, you know it has comedy, has drama, has action.
Cesar Millan
Repetition creates the master.
Cesar Millan
Think about a dog’s ability to forgive. This to me is love.
Cesar Millan
Little dogs bite more than big dogs but they get away with it.
Cesar Millan
Many dogs grow up without rules or boundaries. They need exercise, discipline and affection in that order.
Cesar Millan
On walks, make sure that your dog is not in front of you, pulling you down the street. Instead, keep your dog to your side or behind you. This will also demonstrate to your dog that you are the alpha figure.
Cesar Millan
Give your dog something to do before you share food, water, toys or affection. This way the dog earns his treat. For example, have him or her perform the sit or down command.
Cesar Millan
Always walk out the door ahead of your dog when leaving the house. This will show your dog who is in the leadership role.
Cesar Millan
Humans are the only animals who will follow unstable pack leaders.
Cesar Millan
My kids are around pit bulls every day. In the ’70s they blamed Dobermans, in the ’80s they blamed German Shepherds, in the ’90s they blamed the Rottweiler. Now they blame the Pit Bull.
