Views on Cesar Millan
Quotes from experts on CM:
"Cesar Millan's methods are based on flooding
and punishment. The result, though immediate, will be only
transitory. His methods are misguided, outmoded, in some cases
dangerous, and often inhumane. You would not want to be a dog
under his sphere of influence. The sad thing is that the
public does not recognize the error of his ways. My college
things it is a travesty. We've written to National Geographic
Channel and told them they have put dog training back 20
years."
Dr. Nicolas Dodman - Professor and Head-
Section of Animal Behavior
Director of Behavior Clinic, Tufts
University - Cummings School of Veterinary Medicine
"Practices such as physically controlling
aggressive dogs and using choke collars for fearful dogs are
outrageous by even the most diluted dog training standards. A
profession that has been making steady gains in its
professionalism, technical sophistication and humane standards
has been greatly set back. I have long been deeply troubled by
the popularity of Mr. Millan as so many will emulate him. To
co-opt a word like "whispering" for arcane, violent and
technically unsound practices is unconscionable. "
Jean Donaldson, The San Francisco SPCA-Director
of The Academy for Dog Trainers.
