Taking up the ''dog whisperer''
OK, I admit, I've gotten sucked into episodes of ''The Dog Whisperer'' and been intrigued by Cesar Millan's magic with canines. The guy's likable enough, and he's an animal lover (I presume), therefore I offer him points for that. And I've even tried his training strategies (type of) with my dopey but headstrong Rottweiler. But for a few reason I am not completely sold. The skeptic in me says that this Mexican guy hit the jackpot sooner or later when he realized he could make a buck by convincing desperate shitzu/pitbull/goldendoodle/shepherd owners that he might rehabilitate their growly, sick-behaved terrors.
You see, I do not quite get how the entire factor works. Have you ever seen the show? If not, essentially Cesar is summoned to the house of an exasperated (and typically illiterate) dog owner who has allowed her pet to run her life. Naturally they show film footage of the dog at its worst, perhaps barking viciously at the mailman or devouring the neighbor's kitty. The dog, it seems, is a lost cause. But have religion! Cesar Millan has arrived! And at intervals the course of a visit, it looks, he has squashed the offending animal's spirit and forged his odd spell on it. And all it took was some sturdy yanks of the leash among an odd ''SSSTT!'' sound! Plu-eeeze. Now, clearly Cesar is a trained, accomplished animal behaviorist, and his strategies seem to work... somehow. However even I grasp that rehabilitating a wayward animal takes more than some leash tugs and a few strange nonhuman verbal cue.
There must be more that they are not showing us. Like when that evil Chow nipped 2 of Cesar's fingers off and he lobotomized it afterward; or when they performed vocal chord surgery on that yappy terrier. Suppose that's not suitable family viewing. My alternative major downside with Cesar is that he insists on treating these dogs like.... like, well, dogs! He frowns on allowing them on the furniture... he discourages ''baby talking'' to them... he insists they don't share our food.... and, worst of all, he bans them from his bedroom. Huh? If I did not have my dog to snuggle with each night, who would keep me heat and toasty (suppose my partner could... but let's keep her out of this).
Anyway, my purpose is, Cesar does not approve of assigning human qualities to our dogs. Do not ask me why. I've had dogs that are a lot of human than, well, some humans I understand! They've definitely exhibited additional feelings and emotions than those humans, and additional loyalty, and more devotion, and more consistency, and additional love. Anyway, those are my problems with Cesar. After all, if Mr. Millan were to indicate up at my doorstep someday, I would invite him in. In fact, I might even raise him about this barking downside I am having with one in every of my dogs, and this aggression problem I'm having with another. Oh, and perhaps he may help me type out why my little boxer insists on choosing on big dogs that may devour her in one bite. Ahh, who am I kidding. I may use Cesar's recommendation, and I'm in awe at his magic bit with animals. I like his show, and I attempt to follow his advice. After all, I want I may communicate with dogs also he can. The underside line, you see, is that this: I am jealous.
