Cesar Millan has been active since 2004 and spawned various shows and organizations now devoted to dog rehab. His latest is Cesar 911, which showcases his most severe canine cases. Millan makes home visits and even interns some of these dogs in his private dog kennels.
Cesar comes from my part of Mexico in the state of Sinaloa. He has quite a success story, crossing the border illegally and working his way up in dog-related occupations like dog grooming.
Cesar gains the respect of his clients and dogs for his expertise. He was known for working with dogs since his boyhood in Mexico. No wonder many of his methods are unconventional like using a broom as a barrier. Many times he suffers dog bites by not backing down to show who is the alpha dog. Almost every visit though, tends to end with happy masters. Millan talks a lot about the way the dog brain works. I'm impressed that he is self-taught about using calming methods and understanding dogs' cerebral activity. It gives us average dog loving families hope to understand our own canines.
Cesar's main contribution is to expose the remarkable intelligence of dogs. Many times, I've seen him make difficult dogs do exactly what he wants after visiting only a few minutes. The show might be slow if you're not that much into dogs, so we'll leave this at 10th & Goal.
