Very strange things afoot in the dog training world. Cesar Millan is coming out with a new book titled "Cesar's Rules" and it seems that the father of positive dog training, Ian Dunbar, is featured in a chapter of it. It seems the book is a compilation of both Cesar and other dog trainers speaking about their methods.
While I believe Cesar has really set dog training back - its very encouraging to think he might be examining his methods, or at the very least using his fame to promote other trainers and methods.
No matter what you think of him, Cesar Millan has huge power because millions of people see him and adore him. Sadly many people take his word as gospel and that affects the lives of a great many dogs all around the world.
If he were to use his fame to promote reward training that would be a treat for trainers and dogs alike.
Here's the link of what Dr Dunbar said regarding working with Cesar:
