“I rehabilitate dogs. I train people.” —Cesar Millan
There are at least 68 million dogs in America, and their owners lavish billions of dollars on them every year. So why do so many pampered pets have problems? In this definitive and accessible guide, Cesar Millan—star of National Geographic Channel’s hit show Dog Whisperer with Cesar Millan—reveals what dogs truly need to live a happy and fulfilled life.
From his appearances on The Oprah Winfrey Show to his roster of celebrity clients to his reality television series, Cesar Millan is America’s most sought-after dog-behavior expert. But Cesar is not a trainer in the traditional sense—his expertise lies in his unique ability to comprehend dog psychology. Tracing his own amazing journey from a clay-walled farm in Mexico to the celebrity palaces of Los Angeles, Cesar recounts how he learned what makes dogs tick. In Cesar’s Way, he shares this wisdom, laying the groundwork for you to have stronger, more satisfying relationships with your canine companions.
Cesar’s formula for a contented and balanced dog seems impossibly simple: exercise, discipline, and affection, in that order. Taking readers through the basics of dog psychology and behavior, Cesar shares the inside details of some of his most fascinating cases, using them to illustrate how common behavior issues develop and, more important, how they can be corrected.
Whether you’re having issues with your dog or just want to make a good bond even stronger, this book will give you a deeper appreciation of how your dog sees the world, and it will help make your relationship with your beloved pet a richer and more rewarding one.
Learn what goes on inside your dog’s mind and develop a positive, fulfilling relationship with your best friend
In Cesar’s Way, Cesar Millan—nationally recognized dog expert and star of National Geographic Channel’s hit show Dog Whisperer with Cesar Millan—helps you see the world through the eyes of your dog so you can finally eliminate problem behaviors. You’ll learn:
• What your dog really needs may not be what you’re giving him
• Why a dog’s natural pack instincts are the key to your happy relationship
• How to relate to your dog on a canine level
• There are no “problem breeds,” just problem owners
• Why every dog needs a job
• How to choose a dog who’s right for you and your family
• The difference between discipline and punishment
• And much more!
Filled with fascinating anecdotes about Cesar’s longtime clients, and including forewords by the president of the International Association of Canine Professionals and Jada Pinkett Smith, this is the only book you’ll need to forge a new, more rewarding connection with your four-legged companion.

CUSTOMER REVIEWS:
Good read -
The book was in excellent condition and arrived promptly. The information was not as helpful for hands on training as much as a philosophy and chronicle of Cesar's life and methods.

It's Common Sense -
As someone that teaches on a daily basis, I have yet to find a way to teach common sense. This book, for me anyway, broke down the dog psyche into little, easily digested bits. It was really breaking things down into common sense. I didn't buy this book as a training tool. I read the reviews here at Amazon and was able to figure that one out right away. I wanted to learn more about what drives my Weimaraner to do the things she does or doesn't do.
My dog Amara is not a nutjob but she is VERY high energy and I needed to learn how to help her release that energy without drugs. After reading the book I realized that all it takes is some time, effort and training on my part and the results are amazing. The big thing for us was the barking at the door when someone arrives and enters our home. This was fixed in about a week utilizing some common sense and direction from the book. You don't have to use the HISSING sound that Cesar utilizes but you need to use some command or word to associate a redirection when an undesirable action is taking place. He only uses the hissing because his grandmother used it on him!
On conclusion, remember this book is NOT a training book but a tool to use to better understand how your dog thinks, acts and behaves and why they do the things they do. It does offer some forms of training but not commands that many people are looking for.
Thanks
Cesar? No Way. -
Sorry. I'm not a "spoiled-sport". Just a long time dog professional who knows that Cesar Milan's "methods" have set back modern dog training 40 years.
Dogs can be effectively trained without aversives, using positive reinforement, and achieve the same results. You can be a leader without being a bully. You can lead effectively by example instead of by coercion.
Many people nationwide are becoming wise to Milan's methods, and I have a feeling his "media star" is about to burn out in favor of more dog friendly trainers.
Don't waste your time or money on his book. Use your "energy" to create a bond with your dog based on mutual respect and not fear.
Inspiring. -
Cesar's Way, is a wonderful book. I have been watching the Dog Whisperer for some time. Through observing my mistakes and working hard to correct my issues I was able to fix every agressive, dominate anti-scocial issue my dog had because of my ignorance. This book took his instruction further and truely helped me understand my dogs needs better. My dog can now be trusted while an infant in on the floor...she always gives them space because I now know how to give her leadership and boundries. It was a nice bonus to learn more about Cesar and his background. Dogs really do change who we become if we work to give them what they need. If you have problems with your dog and you are willing to change what your doing to get the outcome you want this book is for you! I'm now the kind of person and the kind of dog owner I had always wanted to be. Thanks Cesar!

Overrated -
Cesar Milan's methods may be effective at training some, if not most, dogs. However, I used these methods on my dog and it made him completely neurotic. He is a breed of dog that is VERY sensitive to a stern voice and the method Cesar uses to hold dogs on the ground to establish "pack leader" completely intimidated my dog. He became extremely submissive and because he was a puppy, totally confused. In the dog world these behaviors are not natural. The leader will roll the rest of the pack onto the ground but quickly let them back up, whereas Cesar explains that they must stay on the ground until they are calm. After using his methods, when we would walk into the room he would pee everywhere! And no, we never beat him in any way. Once we figured out that we had caused this behavior, we had to rebuild his confidence by letting him win at tug-of-war and ignore him when we walked into a room. Like I said, this is a cautionary review created so that people may heed the warning that these methods do NOT work on every dog. Just be aware.
