There’s another show on Animal Planet that comes on every Saturday at 9 it’s called It’s Me or the Dog with Victoria Stillwell.

He didn’t choke the dog to “death.” Also, Cesar claims that he was not at the facility when it happened and that the personal dog trainer hired by the owner was with the dog at the time of the accident. Way to go to throw a story out of prospective and judge a person before the courts have decided what happened. Do some research before jumping to conclusions.
“On May 5, 2006, Flody Suarez, a television producer for the TV series 8 Simple Rules, filed a lawsuit against Millan, claiming that his Labrador retriever had been seriously injured while at Millan’s training facility during an exercise routine on a treadmill.[14] National Geographic Channel released a statement that Millan was not present at the facility at the time of the alleged incident. Millan has also claimed that Suarez’s personal dog trainer was with the dog, Gator, while it was at the Dog Psychology Center and that he did not charge Suarez or Suarez’ dog trainer for use of the Dog Psychology Center facilities. Millan had allowed Suarez’ trainer to bring Gator to the center as a favor. A hearing to discuss the suit was canceled, since a settlement (the terms of which were not made public) was reached on March 29, 2007.”
There are several shows one of them on the BBC.

Cesar is NOT a dog trainer. He rehabilitates dogs that mostly have no hope. Many times on his show you will hear people say that if this doesn’t work the dog will be euthanized or rehomed or sent to a shelter. The only ones “trained” by Cesar are the dog owners. I haven’t seen a show yet where the dog’s issues were caused by the dog. Many times Cesar’s main recommendation is “more exercise” to relieve the dog’s frustration. I have NEVER heard him criticize a trainer or behaviorist. If positive reinforcement is needed he will use it. Many times he says anything is good that does not harm the dog. He uses the tools that the owners are familiar with and teaches them to use them properly.

I have fostered many dogs over the past 3 years or so using with I have learned from his show and reading his books. I must say the message I have heard over and over isn’t to alpha roll a dog when he doesn’t listen (I have heard him say to have a professional help you if your dog is a red zone case). I have heard 1)exercise 2)rules, boundaries, and limitations, 3) affection (in that order). It has positively changed the way that I live with my 3 dogs (one a failed adoption returned due to aggression…once again it wasn’t him, it was the adopter that couldn’t lead him properly).

Actually, Cesar uses what other dogs use to train them. He does not use fear, he uses dog psychology, and uses it on dogs who have been to many trainers, and have had NO results. His tactics are not for dogs with just one issue, he uses his tactics on dogs that have many, many issues, including severe aggression. And if YOU READ instead of listening to HERE SAY, you would know that Cesar was not there, and it was the owner’s personal dog trainer, who brought the dog in and did it.
I highly doubt that National Geographic would continue to air and support someone that is cruel to animals.
Just because you are a human, doesn’t mean all animals respond to what you would. You have to get into their head, and find another way to get them to understand you.
Well before Cesar had a show, we picked up a dog that was living on the streets for most of his young life, with barely any human interaction. He was food aggressive, almost broke my mother’s foot by biting, and nearly attacked our cat on several occasions.. Every time he did something wrong, yelling obviously only made him run or want to turn on us so, I flipped him on his back and put my hand on his neck, not choking, but kept him pinned until he calmed down, because that is what I saw wolves do to one another on nature shows. I endured painful bites, but I did not give in because that isn’t something wolf leaders did. And guess what? My baby boy gave in, and recognized me as his leader. He was trained in in a few months, even after we were told by vets and trainers that he was a “danger” and should be put down, when we first got him. He became the best dog, and a good friend, becoming gentle, loving, and an integral part of the family. We didn’t give up on him because we knew that being a domesticated animal, he can be broken of feral habits, something that most vets and trainers say can’t happen. That is BS. Laziness and being misguided is why dogs like my dog got put down. Any dog can be broken of feral habits, any dog can be broken out of aggression. That is something my family knew and we put up with him being a danger for so long because we knew it would take a while for him to realize we weren’t there to hurt him, but to take care of him, for him to become part of our family. He never hurt anyone after that.
RIP Pogo. I love you baby, and no other dog can ever replace you.

3 cheers for Kuzih & hardcore!!!!! Thank you for doing the homework that the original poster did NOT and for knowing what you’re talking about!!
It would be so refreshing to see people ask questions or make statements that they can back up.
Thanks to the 2 of you, I don’t believe there is much else to be said.
Thank you for setting the record straight here.

From Wikipedia: On April 28, 2006, Millan’s original publicist, Makeda Smith of Jazzmyne Public Relations, and her partner, Foster Corder of Daughters 2 Feed Films, filed a lawsuit against Millan requesting compensation for damages in excess of $5 million for alleged copyright infringement, breach of contract and breach of confidential relationship. The National Geographic Channel, MPH Entertainment, Inc. and Emery/Sumner Productions, LLC were also defendants named in the complaint. Smith alleged that Millan forsook her after several years of utilizing her expertise to introduce and position him within entertainment industry, professional, and media circles, nationally and internationally, without any compensation.The matter was settled out of court to all parties’ satisfaction with the terms of the settlement contractually confidential.

On May 5, 2006, Flody Suarez, a television producer for the TV series 8 Simple Rules, filed a lawsuit against Millan, claiming that his Labrador retriever had been seriously injured while at Millan’s training facility during an exercise routine on a treadmill. National Geographic Channel released a statement that Millan was not present at the facility at the time of the alleged incident. Millan has also claimed that Suarez’s personal dog trainer was with the dog, Gator, while it was at the Dog Psychology Center and that he did not charge Suarez or Suarez’ dog trainer for use of the Dog Psychology Center facilities. Millan had allowed Suarez’ trainer to bring Gator to the center as a favor. A hearing to discuss the suit was cancelled, since a settlement (the terms of which were not made public) was reached on March 29, 2007.

Anyone can sue anyone else, whether or not the suit is justified. It’s better to check out what you aren’t sure of rather than spread malicious gossip regarding something you know absolutely nothing about.

Cesar is not a dog trainer. He’s a dog rehabilitator. He could care less whether your dog will sit, stay, come, stand, down, etc. But he’ll help you teach your dog not to jump on people, not to pull on the leash, not to bark at anything and everything, not to go after all the dogs and people she meets.

The other “dog training” show, “It’s Me or The Dog,” features Victoria Stilwell. She does not handle the dogs – instead, she berates the owners and has them handle the dogs. I wouldn’t have Stilwell in my house because she is so rude.

It’s Me Or The Dog with Victoria Stillwell! She’s much better dog trainer and much more Humane, than Cesar Milan. Cesar Milan is abusive and a phony!

As others have said, Millan had nothing to do with that issue from long ago. Regardless, I’ve seen Victoria Stillwell’s program a few times and honestly she’s got bizarre energy and makes me very uncomfortable. I’ve TRIED to like her show, but just can’t watch it anymore.
