I just hope that you're not alpha rolling or yanking your dog like he does - if you are that may be why Toby doesn't listen to you as well as he used to. I don't know, you didn't give detailed info, but it's possible that your doing things "The Cesar Way" might be damaging your relationship with your dog. If you want to learn to communicate with your dog, don't worry about copying Cesar's "calm assertive" energy which if you really look at his body language he's being intimidating, not calm and assertive. If you want to communicate better with your dog, try giving Patricia McConnell's "The Other End of the Leash" a read. Good stuff there.<br /><br />Esmeralda: I live in an area that necessitates my dog being an indoor dog and to be taken outside for pottying and 90% of his exercise and I still manage to do it. You don't have to have Cesar's facilities to provide for your dogs the way you think he does.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-683535703316564094.post-11353805815738983282009-07-05T17:01:15.238-05:002009-07-05T17:01:15.238-05:00Bruin looks like he's having a lot of fun at t...Bruin looks like he's having a lot of fun at the park. I think if he's going to come to Acton he should see Hunter. On the other hand, I've already watched the Cesar Milan show and, while thrilled at first, realized that I cannot realistically live like that. <br /><br />Of course if I lived in LA where all the dogs could be outside dogs, kept my dogs in kennels/crates all the time, and had a staff to do all the work (like Cesar does) then it would be just perfect for me.<br /><br />But it's just me. And walking around with your chest puffed out and your ears forward just makes you feel silly after a while. Nevertheless, if Cesar wants to swing by and fix Hunter and/or Twinkie in 20 minutes like he does on the show, then I'd be perfectly happy to have him over. He seems like a really sweet guy.<br /><br />And I am so over the thin-skinned stuff. I have teenagers, so I'm fully aware of how stupid and incompetent I am.Esmereldahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00564056135255416041noreply@blogger.com
