I'll believe it if I see it for dogs translates to I'll believe it if I smell it. So don't bother yelling at them it's the energy and scent they pay attention to, not your words.
Cesar Millan
Image
With a dog, people are not disciplined. They think that by spoiling a dog the dog is going to love them more. But the dog misbehaves more because they give affection at the wrong time.

Huskies get in trouble. Huskies are well-known to be escape artists. Why? Because they were bred to go long-distance. They're not bred to be in the backyard and just look beautiful because they have blue eyes.

Image
In America, dogs are viewed by their names first, breed second. And dogs live behind walls. It's an unnatural point of view.
Cesar Millan
Image
Owners lavish love on their pets, which is why so many go from non-aggressive pups to being out of control when they're older. People just don't realise their dog must respect them as leader of the pack.
Cesar Millan
Image
The biggest mistake people make is assuming that their dogs think like little humans, and that they can negotiate behavior with them, but it doesn't work that way.
Cesar Millan
Image
I deal with misunderstood aspects of animal behaviour like anxiety and aggression. I teach people how to respect different species and let a dog be a dog.

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.

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.

I love my dogs and I give them affection all the time but it has to be at the right time or they get confused.
Cesar Millan

Aggression is not a breed thing. Its a state of mind, and it comes from how the human is with the dog. There are four levels of energy, regardless of the breed: low, medium, high, very high. The idea is to get a dog in your same level or lower than you.
Cesar Millan
Image
All dogs can become aggressive, but the difference between an aggressive Chihuahua and an aggressive pit bull is that the pit bull can do more damage. That's why it's important to make sure you are a hundred percent ready for the responsibility if you own a 'power' breed, like a pit bull, German shepherd, or Rottweiler.

It's an up and down thing, the human goals, because the human is always an explorer, an adventurist.

It's not the breed that makes a good companion. All dogs are great companions.

I have always been honest with my fans, which means being open about any struggles I have had along the way.

I rehabilitate dogs, I train people.

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
Image
The dog can only become what's in your bubble. The dog is imitating the energy that is in your bubble. You are the source, the feast of energy. If you feel anxious, the dog becomes anxious with you. If you become nervous, the dog wakes up nervous with you.

Little dogs bite more than big dogs but they get away with it.

Puppies and kids naturally go together, but it's up to the adults to teach them how to do it the right way.
