About book Guía Para Un Perro Feliz (2013)

Cesar Millan, the Dog Whisperer, knows dogs. And he knows that training them often involves training their owners. Dogs are first and foremost dogs – not little furry people. They rely on their instincts to guide them and have a pack mentality. Owners often make the mistake of reinforcing behaviors that they want to curb or prevent because they don’t understand how their dogs think. In this short training guide, Cesar explains how dogs see the world, and how owners can be strong pack leaders who help them feel comfortable, happy, and safe in that environment. He deals with some specific problems like runaways, separation anxiety, aggression, fear, and more. Dogs need exercise and discipline, as well as affection, and this guide explains how and when to give all three. Excellent, informative resource. This was a good rundown of all the principles Cesar Millan teaches in his show Dog Whisperer. There are some aspects I don't agree with (such as his insistence that dogs be neutered), but overall I agree with his most important points, that a dog needs a pack leader (despite the naysayers who insist that dominance theory is no longer valid), and that dogs are instinctual animals that often mistake affection for approval in behaving improperly. Cesar clearly demonstrated to me the value of staying calm and assertive when caring for a dog, and to be mindful of the fact that humanizing them can lead to many mistakes when trying to correct bad behavior or train them.I especially appreciated his last chapter, when he goes into some detail about the circumstances that led him to almost committing suicide, having had to reach a low point before he could finally recover from the loss of his dog, marriage and finances. His mantra of Exercise, Discipline and Affection (in that order) is something I could learn to apply to my own life as well, and not just for any dog I would own.
