Deceptive Title

I purchased this DVD thinking it was by Cesar Milan...the true Dog Whisperer. However, it was some other guy. There was too much filler and not enough information in this video. I found the bits on what the dog thinks ridiculous and a waste of time to watch.

Now *this* is Whispering

Paul Owens book, The Dog Whisperer came a long time before the Dog Whisperer TV show. Cesar Millan's methods are inhumane and outdated.

By contrast, Paul Owens' book and video have excellent tips and a broad theory of how to train dogs that is quite helpful.

Easy dog training

This video was simple to understand but really for beginning training and not intermediate. While the training worked on my puppy to obey simple commands such as sit and lay down, he is beyond that and into intermediate training such as walking and not jumping. This book did not cover that type of training, it is basic simple sit, lay, come commands.

This DVD saved my neighbors dogs life!

Three weeks after I brought my puppy home from the East Valley Animal Shelter, my neighbor decided to get a "pound puppy" as well. I saw him the following week as he was literally on his way to bringing the dog back to the Shelter "because the 'no good crazy mutt' was biting everybody". He said he wasn't as lucky as me and he got a bad dog. I let him borrow this dvd and pleaded with him to give the dog a second chance. He hesitantly agreed. A couple of days later I checked in with him and the dog was no longer biting anybody and his temperament was that of a different and more calm dog. Thank you Paul Owens for helping to save a dog that would have surely been euthanized! Since then my neighbor bought his own dvd as well as the book. Guess I need to get the book now to keep up with him. LOL!
