At The End Of My Leash

Anyone see this show? I think thats what it is called...."At The End Of My Leash".

What do you guys think?
I like it and even tho his methods sometimes seem odd,they work! But I find the show really interesting.

I've never heard of it.. perhaps because I'm not in Newfoundland? haha. I tend to stay away from dog training/behavior shows though. I get too frustrated with them because I have a different training technique. Especially whats his face.... Cesar Millan... I can't stand him, but people here rave about him.

Nah,this aint a Newfoundland show.It is Canadian tho.

I have never seen anything that this Cesar guy has done,yet so many people talk about how greyt he is! I never heard of him until coming to this forum and I still do not really know who he is.All I know is he is this supposed good trainer.

haha, well, I'm not in Canada either People like to say Cesar is a "trainer" but he really calls himself a behaviorist. I strongly disagree with many of his techniques. He uses fear tactics, pokes, prods, pinches. My old boss watched an episode once where he actually strung a dog up on it's leash until it collapsed from lack of air, then told him good boy for calming down. He also works dogs to the point of exhaustion, so they seem calm. (not to mention he's sexist)
the "Dog Whisperer" is totally not worth your time.

I've never liked the show so I can't really judge but from what you've said he sounds horrible
