Wanting to do her best by her puppy, a 5 - pound chihuahua, Alice investigated training through reading, talking, and, yes, watching Cesar Millan's at - the - time
popular Dog Whisperer television show.
In his 2007 best - selling book Become the Pack Leader, Cesar Millan (of
the popular Dog Whisperer TV series) states, «We've gone from the old - fashioned authoritarian extreme — where animals existed only to do our bidding — to another unhealthy extreme — where animals are considered our equal partners in every area of our lives.»
According to this statement, released by the American Animal Hospital Association, the punishment based methods employed by such
popular TV shows as «The
Dog Whisperer» are, «outdated and — at times — dangerous for pets and their owners.»
