Sinossi
Profondo e straordinario conoscitore del comportamento e del linguaggio dei cani, fondatore del Dog Psychology Center per il recupero e il reinserimento dei cani più problematici, Cesar Millan è una vera e propria star. Il suo programma Dog Whisperer in onda sul National Geographic Channel è seguito costantemente da milioni di telespettatori. A lui si sono rivolti celebri attori e attrici di Hollywood, imprenditori miliardari e personaggi influenti del mondo della comunicazione, tutti con lo stesso problema: come fare a stabilire un rapporto equilibrato con il proprio cane? Come rendere felice il proprio amico a quattro zampe? In questo libro, che ha venduto oltre un milione e mezzo di copie, Cesar Millan spiega i fondamenti del proprio metodo: imparare a trattare (e rispettare) il cane in quanto animale; evitare ogni forma di umanizzazione; smettere di credere che il cane abbia le stesse necessità di un bambino. Perché spesso non è il cane ad aver bisogno di addestramento: è il padrone. I comportamenti, le nevrosi e le abitudini umane, infatti, sono quasi sempre la causa delle ansie, degli squilibri e delle ossessioni dei cani. Una guida completa, ricca di esempi tratti dall'esperienza diretta dell'autore, che aiuta a comprendere la psicologia e il linguaggio del nostro cane e permette di creare con lui un legame appagante, profondo e duraturo.

Recensioni
I need to start with a bit of a disclaimer about this one. I read this book as a sort of "know thine enemies" thing. I have seen enough of Cesar's show and read enough about his techniques to know I don't agree with him and I find his ideas about dogs sometimes old and out of date, sometimes simply
Cesar's way is not about dog training. It's about a way of living. I can see how it might not be for everyone, but it's certainly for me. He has taught me that living with and domesticating other species should involve honoring who those beings are. Having a dog isn't just about fulfilling our needs Leggi tutto
Ok so I got this book because much to my chagrin I am not the hot shit dog owner I thought I was and my sweet puppy is becoming a sweet pain in the ass. Unfortunately this was not as helpful as I had hoped it would be. This is EverlyBrothers he is my 1 year old Saint. He is an angel...for me, he s
thought this guy was some full o' shit asshole pop culture phenomenon until i saw him at runyon canyon with about 30 dogs running behind him. cesar turns around and his pack stops dead in their tracks and sits. he points to a random few of them: "you! you! you! you!" and said guys & gals zig-zag out Leggi tutto
I liked watching Cesar Millan on his show, treating problem dogs; and I liked reading his book also. Didn't know he was an illegal immigrant who had to sleep on the streets for a while. If you are only interested in the information about treating your dog, it can fit into a sticky note page. However Leggi tutto
I really need to stop reading the negative reviews on books I enjoy, because they just make me angry. I'm not a dog trainer, but my boyfriend and I recently (and unexpectedly) became dog owners. I haven't had a dog since I was a kid, and I wasn't the one responsible for them. We now have a beautiful, Leggi tutto
Meh. This book is fine, but it's really just Cesar repeating the same things over and over. Be the pack leader! Take your dog on more walks! Dogs experience the world with their noses! Take your dog on more walks! Did I mention how cool my life is? Take your dog on more walks! Etc. I mean, I don't k Leggi tutto
