With my last dog, I had a lot of problems. Yes he had issues when I got him but what was doing (on the advice of the dog trainer) didn't help.
With the new one, Scruffy, I've been following more of the Caesar approach. It works really well.
Trying to see things from the dog's viewpoint and acting like the alpha dog are much more effective than expecting the dog to see things through the human perspective.
Yes I'm sure if I was a professional trainer it would be easier but that doesn't mean it's not worth doing.

If you follow what Cesar teaches, you will be successful. It gets addictive, you actually want to go out and fix dogs. Remain calm and assertive and don't give up until you get the results you want. It works and it's cool!
