Calm assertive energy is the energy you project to show your dog you are the Pack Leader. Assertive does not mean angry or aggressive. Calm-assertive means always compassionate, but quietly in control.

More quotes by Cesar Millan
Mother Nature's ruthless to the weak, but isn't arbitrary cruel or negative. Mother Nature saves aggression for extreme situations, and instead uses consistent leadership--to help keep things running smoothly. Mother nature doesn't rule by fear and anger, but by calm strength and assertiveness.
Cesar Millan
I'm naturally a loud person. It can be a bit overpowering.
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
Many dogs grow up without rules or boundaries. They need exercise, discipline and affection in that order.
Cesar Millan
Love is leading. People think it has to be two different roles but it is the same.
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
People say I train dogs, but in many ways I train people.
Cesar Millan
There is no such thing as a problem breed. However, there is no shortage of 'problem owners'.
Cesar Millan
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
Little dogs bite more than big dogs but they get away with it.
Cesar Millan
Dogs do know how comfortable you are with yourself, how happy you are, how fearful you are, and what is missing inside of you.
Cesar Millan
My dogs have been my most loyal friends and constant companions.
Cesar Millan
There are a lot of things that people are doing unconsciously wrong.
Cesar Millan
When I go and work with people, I never say, 'Your dog is changed for the rest of its life.' It's like a diet. You've got to maintain a discipline and ritual in your life to keep a certain figure.
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
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
Having pets can teach us a lot of things. For kids, they are often their first lesson in responsibility, and being responsible for the well-being of another living thing is actually great for anyone, kid or adult. It teaches empathy, consistency, and so much more - especially if that pet is a dog.
Cesar Millan
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.
Cesar Millan
Humans are the only animals who will follow unstable pack leaders.
Cesar Millan
I think we all connect with dogs the most because they're pack animals. I know that cats are a little bit too aloof for me, although I wouldn't totally object to bringing one into our pack if I could find the right match that would get along with my dogs.
