I think my life has everything, you know it has comedy, has drama, has action.

Repetition creates the master.

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.

People say I train dogs, but in many ways I train people.

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.

There are a lot of things that people are doing unconsciously wrong.

A dog is a vehicle, you know, a dog is a window to Mother Nature and that's the closest species we have.
Cesar Millan
Image
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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

There is no such thing as a problem breed. However, there is no shortage of 'problem owners'.
Cesar Millan
Image
It's an up and down thing, the human goals, because the human is always an explorer, an adventurist.

Think about a dog’s ability to forgive. This to me is love.
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.

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
Image
I wish my kid would act like my dog sometimes. My dog listens to me and does what I tell him to do.

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.
