More quotes by 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.

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
Image
It's important to note that aggression isn't the problem. It's the outcome of a problem.
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
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.

Humans are the only animals who will follow unstable pack leaders.

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
Image
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.

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
Image
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
Image
She thinks, I failed twice. If I failed twice I'm going to fail forever. No! That is not the law of life. If you failed twice that means you can learn. It's just a learning experience. It's an obstacle. An imaginary obstacle. She made it real. She made failing a journey of life... Instead do again and make a journey of your life.

With small dogs people don't reinforce the same behavior that they do on a larger dog. If you are a driver no matter what size car you have it doesn't matter. Same thing goes for any gender. All the rules are the same.

I am a Mexican that has been lucky enough to travel the world, speaking English, but with a heart that speaks a universal language.

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

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.

The pack is very important for a dog. Once you give him the right pack and the right energy, you look at him.

When you're poor, you have nothing to lose and be afraid of. Holding onto the dream and having nothing to lose is what helped me succeed.

There is no such thing as a problem breed. However, there is no shortage of 'problem owners'.
Cesar Millan

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.

Dogs in America get more affection than women in most Third World countries.
