Cesar Millan

Cesar: Loving a dog is one thing, humanizing and pampering the animal is another. It's a selfish attitude because it's what the human wants, instead of really seeing the picture - what does the dog need?

Cesar: The most common mistake in America is that we humanize dogs. There's nothing wrong with loving a dog like a human, but it's important for them to become dogs first and become fulfilled as a dog.

Cesar: When I'm with a dog, I want to be one. Two species but moving as one.

Cesar: I'm open for possibilities. I'm open for choices. I always welcome new ideas. I'm always eager to learn. I'm never going to close my mind from learning.

Cesar: Exercise, discipline, and affection is Cesar Millan. And calm-assertive energy—you heard it from me.

Cesar: A vigorous, -- 45-minute walk done correctly, with you in front! -- every morning is crucial. This represents a primal migration with the pack leader. So it becomes both a physical and psychological exercise. Well over 50 percent of all barking cases are caused by lack of exercise.

Cesar: I have Harvard graduates for clients who can't control a chihuahua.

Cesar: This is the best country on Earth for that freedom that you get. You can be nobody, and you can take it to the top. That's the freedom that you get in America. Third World countries, no way. They will block you in a second.

Cesar: Education is the key of anything, to know more than the dog. In those first 10 seconds, they're going to know how much do you know, not how much you make, but how much you know, how much psychology do you know about them. If you don't know much, they're automatically going to take over.

Cesar: My strongest cases are billionaire men, [who say], 'Oh, no, I just want you to fix my dog.' [I say], 'You're not paying me to fix your dog. I'm not a dog trainer. I rehabilitate dogs, and I train people. That's what I do.'
