Description

Cesar Millan—nationally recognized dog expert—helps you see the world through the eyes of your dog so you can finally eliminate problem behaviors.

From his appearances on The Oprah Winfrey Show to his roster of celebrity clients to his reality television series, Cesar Millan is America’s most sought-after dog-behavior expert. But Cesar is not a trainer in the traditional sense—his expertise lies in his unique ability to comprehend dog psychology. Tracing his own amazing journey from a clay-walled farm in Mexico to the celebrity palaces of Los Angeles, Cesar recounts how he learned what makes dogs tick. In Cesar’s Way, he shares this wisdom, laying the groundwork for you to have stronger, more satisfying relationships with your canine companions.

Cesar’s formula for a contented and balanced dog seems impossibly simple: exercise, discipline, and affection, in that order. Taking readers through the basics of dog psychology and behavior, Cesar shares the inside details of some of his most fascinating cases, using them to illustrate how common behavior issues develop and, more important, how they can be corrected. You'll learn:

• What your dog really needs may not be what you’re giving him
• Why a dog’s natural pack instincts are the key to your happy relationship
• How to relate to your dog on a canine level
• There are no “problem breeds,” just problem owners
• How to choose a dog who’s right for you and your family
• The difference between discipline and punishment
• And much more!

Filled with fascinating anecdotes about Cesar’s longtime clients, and including forewords by the president of the International Association of Canine Professionals and Jada Pinkett Smith, this is the only book you’ll need to forge a stronger, more rewarding connection with your four-legged companion.

    I've learned so much about the psychology of dogs which is the key to raising a happy, well balanced dog. More often than not, we tend to see them as our little babies and do not respect their animal nature which in return comes back to us as our dogs having issues.. I recommend this book highly especially to people who bring a dog home for the first time, but not only to them.. to everyone who want to have a healthy, well behaved, four legged family member.. Happy reading.

    This book showed me how to be the pack leader of my five dogs. I never knew how important it was to walk my dogs to reinforce my leadership instead of just to get the dogs to relieve themselves. I learned how to be calm , assertive and to project this energy to my dogs to get them to submit. My relationship with all my animals has been enriched because of what I learned from Caesar. Thank you!

    Very insightful. I see now that the dogs I had when I was younger were not better dogs than the ones I have now, I was a better leader. I recently adopted a two year old with aggression to other people. This book painfully helped me realize that I have already made mistakes with him, and need to change my ways fast. Be the person I want to be and the dog needs me to be.
