His name is Cesar Milan and he is pretty amazing. Most of what he does is simple common sense, you have to be the pack leader of your dogs, they need to know you are in charge and you call the shots. The trick is that you have to be able to remain calm and assertive, yelling and getting frustrated does no good.
For instance: I got a 6 month old lab/pitt bull mix about 3 and a half weeks ago. Every night when he is calm I work with him teaching him sit, down, and stay. He is doing soooooo well! First I get him to sit, using one word...Sit...I say it strongly with confidence but not so much that I am yelling. Then I would give him a treat and praise. After a few days, I started adding Down! to the session and while holding the treat so he could smell it, I pointed at the ground between his front legs. He lays down, he gets the treat. A few days later I added the stay part. I did the first two steps, then put my hand on his forehead and said STAY. I backed up a step or two, he stayed then gets a treat. Day by day I move away while he is in the "down-stay" (a dog's natural instinct is to follow, "stay" is the hardest thing for them to learn) He is doing so well that he "stayed" at the bottom of the stairs while I walked up and out of sight. Then I use a one word command with his name to tell him to come: "PJ- COME" and he does. He gets praise and a treat.
He is also learning to walk on a leash without pulling! Every time he starts to pull, I pull back one short time and say no! I bring him back to my side and we go on. It took a lot of walks and was very frustrating for the first week but today he did it!!!!!!
Today we also did the "sit, down, stay" while we were out on a walk, there was noise, people, and traffic and he did all three! woo hoo!
The main thing is that you always remain calm and in control, no matter WHAT the dog does. You cannot yell and get all excited, your dog will act on that and it will make things worse. Making sure he gets exercise helps too. A dog cannot go day after day without releasing energy. A walk that is at least half and hour to forty five minutes every day is vital. A good game of fetch works too. They need to get somewhat worn out.
Many towns have pet stores that offer group obedience classes for about $50 to $100 dollars, you can also ask the local animal shelter for some suggestions for trainers.
Good luck!

I revel in it as leisure. It's exciting to peer all of the messes humans get themselves into with dogs, and the matters they suppose are proper. For my part a few of what he says is excellent advice, it's only usual feel. Matters like stroll your canine, set rules, comply with up on rules, don't let your canine pull you down the road. For a lot of minor problems he definitely can aid--telling any person with a hyper canine to provide them exercise is just right original feel. A canine with a good quantity of exercise could have much less hyper habits, and be more inclined to hearken to commands. I agree with different posters about how he claims quick fixes for tricky problems. I simply watched an episode where he supposedly solved a major case of separation anxiety in a half of hour. As if. Activity can help that problem, but there's no manner a significantly anxious dog will be wholly cured in that time frame. Exhibit development yes, no longer whole recovery. I have been working with my dog for a month and i am best now seeing development--if Cesar was correct he would be "cured" lengthy since.

The Dog Whisperer, is Cesar Milan, and he has a show on the National Geographic channel. Hes the bets when it comes to training even the worst dogs. But i think he only opperates out of LA.

Please, I ask of you to deeply look into Cesar Milan's methods. Any person with a background in animal behavior, including myself, would see that his advice is very contradictory. Even the American Humane Association has asked that National Geographic no longer air his show. Just realize that the end doesn't justify the means. He claims to use theories based on pure dog pack instinct, but if you ever watch a pack of dogs interact with each other you would see several problems with his philosophy. If you are having problems with your dogs, try contacting your local animal shelter or breed rescue, they have seen many of the problems and know how to deal with them effectively and humanely. If neither of those work for you, feel free to contact me and we may be able to set up a behavior consultation call to give you some ideas.

If his method are laughable, as someone said earlier, why does he have his own show? Why does he cater to celebrities? Why is he successful? Some of the things he teaches may be common sense, but how is it his fault if he makes money by teaching people how to train their dogs? By the way, his name is Cesar Milan, he has his own show on National Geographic, and he's a published author.

Well people say he is a trainer, but he isn't...IMO he is a dork and his methods are dumb.
Let me add a little more here... This so called dog behaviorist uses methods that we are told are mean and hurtful to dogs, and people follow him like he is a god.. He is always jerking, popping and smacking dogs with something.. and this is OK???
