Caesar Millan!!!!

burpo · 02-08-2007, 07:57 PM

I watch the show the Dog Whisperer, and I just love it!!! He gives great advice and it's worked with my dogs. Calm and assertive energy, like he says. Does his advice work for you?? And what noise do you make to get your dogs attention? The body language of dogs are a neat thing!

***Cassiepeia*** · 02-08-2007, 09:41 PM

Oh gods no.

Lets not do the whole 'dog whisperer' thing again. We've had enough arguments over that.

**That's not me whining as a 'staff member' that's me whining as a plain ol' Global Pawer**

I agree with Cassiepeia, just too many people who dont like his methods, and this could turn into a big argument.

StephanieandTeddy · 02-08-2007, 10:53 PM

LOL!!! I read the first post and was getting all ready with my "Anti-Caesar" argument....but I'll restrain myself since it seems like it's been done to death!!
I'll just say, "To each his own!!"

***Cassiepeia*** · 02-09-2007, 01:33 AM

Feel free to revive an old Cesar thread. LOL There are few down there buried deep.

But I think it's all been said before.

Personally I like Victoria Stilwell, an english dog trainer, who also has her own show. She's wonderful.

She uses positive reinforcment and clicker training. Basic methods, but they're so effective and easy for your average person to learn and use by watching the show. She's also very anti backyard breeder and puppymill (and therefore anti animals in petshops) and she's constantly trying to get across the message that dogs should be spayed/neutered if they're pets and they aren't fashion accessories. Which is something I really love about her. Her show is called "It's me or the dog!" if you ever manage to catch it.

Cass.

EDIT: You can find some of her shows on YouTube by searching for the title of her show.

You should see the episode that's on YouTube. She's dealing with a british celeb (one not known in Aussieland as far as I know), who has 4 Chihuahua's that she refuses to move into her new home because of their problems...a Bulldog and a brand new Bulldog puppy.

I was banging my head on the desk while watching that episode.
Thoroughly entertaining of course, but frustrating nonetheless.

Cass.

***Rivsky*** · 02-09-2007, 02:48 AM

Oh can you send me the link for it Cass please? (I'm too lazy to try and find it myself

!!)

I hear he makes good salad

RedWolf · 02-09-2007, 09:56 AM

I wish they would bring that show you guys mentioned (Victoria Stilwell) to the US! We really need a good clicker trainer on US tv. The only times I've seen clicker training mentioned on a dog training show here, once was a very short segment on a show that generally showed collar corrections, when they did a short interview with Karen Pryor. The other time was I think on the same show (Good Dog U) when the host of the show tried to very briefly explain clicker training and when he demostrated it he kept going "clickclickclickclick" with the clicker each time he used it!

D.Schäferhund · 02-09-2007, 02:06 PM

"Barking mad"had a couple clicker sessions, loved that show...

@ cass, can you please post that link???

***Cassiepeia*** · 02-09-2007, 02:11 PM

It's split into three parts
Part 1 - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sJyKqn_7jFQ
Part 2 - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LX7-h6YwF4c
Part 3 - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K2c8kE_Djhk

I don't think she uses her clicker for this particular episode. I'll have to watch it again, I can't remember. LOL She has a DVD out which I *think* is episodes of her show...but don't quote me on it. I want to get it myself, but what she teaches is basic stuff (which is exactly what the majority of people need of course

).

roman · 02-09-2007, 02:28 PM

oh god..i met him in person this september and god his methods were completly debateable

he was saying basically that if you have a dominant dog to do a roll over the dog...hello i would love to she him roll on top of a mastiff that was dominant than that should train himself

"i rehabilitate dogs, i train people" my foot

D.Schäferhund · 02-09-2007, 02:38 PM

Wow just watched it, that is awsome, do you know by any chance if the next episode is on utube, too? Or have a wbsite from her, That looked awsome!
I really loved the markers, she put down-to see all the peespots...

***Cassiepeia*** · 02-09-2007, 02:42 PM

It's a great show.

This is the official website http://www.channel4.com/entertainmen...dog/index.html
Victoria Stilwell's website is http://www.victoriastilwell.com/
I couldn't find any other episodes on YouTube.

Which is a pity, especially if you can't get the show where you are.

Cass.
