Cesar's Way: The Natural, Everyday Guide to Understanding and Correcting Common Dog Problems


by: Cesar Millan, Melissa Jo Peltier
Cesar Milan's methods may be effective at training some, if not most, dogs. However, I used these methods on my dog and it made him completely neurotic. He is a breed of dog that is VERY sensitive to a stern voice and the method Cesar uses to hold dogs on the ground to establish "pack leader" completely intimidated my dog. He became extremely submissive and because he was a puppy, totally confused. In the dog world these behaviors are not natural. The leader will roll the rest of the pack onto the ground but quickly let them back up, whereas Cesar explains that they must stay on the ground until they are calm.


Cesar's Way: The Natural, Everyday Guide to Understanding and Correcting Common Dog Problems


by: Cesar Millan; Editor-Melissa Jo Peltier
Cesar Millan's and Melissa Jo Peltier's first collaboration is hopefully the first of many fruitful collaborations.

In this book, Millan explores how his childhood and background led him to develop his philosophy of "Exercise, Discipline, Affection" that has become his personal hallmark of excellence and enabled him to rehabilitate so many dogs with so much success--even those that other noted trainers and behaviorists had marked for euthanization.

Much of the first part of the book dwells on his childhood and upbringing in Mexico, and how his father and grandfather taught him to be a "pack leader" to the dogs on his grandfather's farm.


Crossing the River with Dogs: Problem Solving for College Students


by: Ken Johnson, Ted Herr, Judy Kysh
This book is a great text book. My professor loves it and I really like it too. The way it makes you think is so different than other concepts in the math realm. This book makes you think and I recommed incorporating Sodoku puzzles into your curriculum if you teach a problem solving class. I'm only a student, but they really make you think.


Dog Problems (Howell reference books)


by: Carol Lea Benjamin
This is an excellent source for all first time dog owners and should be purchased and read, along with Benjamin's other book--Mother Knows Best--before the dog is purchased. Little problems remain small when dealt with quickly and efficently using methods that dogs understand. Training right from the beginning is the key. Benjamin also tells how to fix a problem before it becomes worse. I have had dogs for over 40 years--terriers--and can testify to the success of Benjamin's methods.
