[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I recently re-watched some old episodes of his show. He is pretty incredible with animals. He is very attuned to their cues and very good at using his own body language and handling to de-escalate reactive dogs.

But….I don’t think his experience + intuition based approach can be easily replicated by easier people unless their dogs have much milder problems. The average dog owner can definitely benefit from his general advice - exercise your dog, show them calm leadership, etc. - [b]but dogs with severe problems cannot be magically cured.[/b] It takes incredible amounts of expertise, time and effort to have a chance at being successful.[/quote]

Who asked for that?

Fwiw we tried very pricey trainers and behaviors with our reactive dog bc that’s what everyone said to do and it was a waste. Ultimately we had to almost totally isolate the dog- which is what it seems many people do with their reactive dogs- avoid triggers- and it only made things more progressively worse [/quote]

Right, that was my point. Cesar makes it look easy to fix these things but it is not.[/quote]

Well I wouldn’t know because I didn’t use them. Everyone said his techniques were ‘abusive’ [/quote]
