People Training for Dogs” is a unique dog training video by Cesar Millan,
otherwise known as the “Dog Whisperer” in the hit TV series with that name.
Here he presents a common sense guide to understanding the basics of dog
behavior and the key to natural dog training.
The Dog Whisperer’s dogs have taught him well. Cesar Millan, not only understands doggy body language, but can speak it as well. He does not need a dog to show us dog language, he does a pretty good job himself.
For example, some had a problem with Cesar repeating the phrase calm and assertive,” and using the concept of
projecting one’s energy. These people want Cesar to explain how to be “calm and
assertive.” If anyone needs that explained, then they are not ready to own a
dog and should try therapy to learn mindfulness and metallization, because this
is not about human-dog relationships, this is about something missing in that
person’s human-human socialization.
The idea about projecting your energy is just something to accept. It works
that way, whether we understand it or not. I am a retired scientist and I
accept there are phenomena we still do not understand. The fact is that when
you have a close relationship with your dog, s/he senses your emotional state.
I don’t how they do it, but they do. Some people are handicapped by the need to
understand everything before they can accept it as reality.
I personally find it no problem accepting the concept of “projecting energy”
since I experience it daily with my dogs.
I strongly recommend looking at this video, People Training for Dogs
before choosing a new dog, or if you already have a dog, this lays the
foundation to natural dog training in an entertaining yet informative manner.
The Dog Whisperer’s dogs have taught him well. Cesar Millan, not only understands doggy body language, but can speak it as well. He does not need a dog to show us dog language, he does a pretty good job himself.
This particular dog training video
turns the concept of dog training on its head. Here it is the people who are
trained to understand dogs. While watching the video, I thought he illustrates
visually, better than I can with mere printed words, how to relate to a dog for
anybody who is thinking of getting a puppy. As the saying goes, “a picture says
more than a thousand words.” This video says even more.
Before beginning to learn dog
obedience tips, or getting dog training advice, we need to understand the
context of our relationship with our dog. This common sense guide to
understanding basics of dog behavior does just this.
This training video is invaluable:
- If you are thinking of getting a puppy or even an older dog.
- You want to start training your dog.
- You have a difficult behavior problem with your dog.
I found Cesar Millan’s presentation
of dog characteristics entertaining, easy to watch and easy to absorb his
advice. The only time I needed to rewind to check that he really said what I
thought I heard was when he said, “Dogs don’t have personalities.” And yes, he
said that. Yet he understands that dogs are different. I think the message he
was trying to get across was, “Dogs are not furry four-footed humans, but are
dogs.”
