About book Cesar Millan's Short Guide To A Happy Dog: 98 Essential Tips And Techniques (2013)
Thank you, Cesar!Most people approach Cesar's books and method with the hope that it'll be some sort of instruction manual on how to get your dogs to do what you want. When in reality, most people forget that bringing a dog into your life isn't about tricks and obedience, but leadership and respect. Which is exactly what Cesar's latest book discusses. The only practical tips necessary in his 'Short Guide to a Happy Dog' was the chapter on 'Choosing the Right Dog for You', a concept so easily neglected when bringing a dog into the human world. Everything else outside this chapter is a useful insight on how to better relate to your dog on dog terms, something that humans seem to forget! Overall, I'd recommend this as one of the best books not only for dog owners, but for people who want to be better informed about bringing a new dog into their lives. I have a Maremma Sheepdog, who will really appreciate the new leadership skills I've learned as a dog owner from Cesar. I've learned that it's never too late to turn your life around with your dog! While Millan's techniques have made him a controversial figure in dog training in the past, I feel like he's actually listened to the criticism leveled against him and taken a good deal of it to heart. This new book is a kinder, gentler Cesar. He is careful to explain what he means by terms like "dominance" and "control" in the very beginning, and gone are the recommendations that you physically dominate your aggressive dog as a means to distract him from his target. Instead, here you find common-sense techniques for curing common doggie complaints such as obsession, separation anxiety, and chewing. I appreciate Millan's openness to positive reinforcement principles and his ability to grow and change.

Lots of good tips, but be selective. Physical correction doesn't work for all dogs.
