Q&A With Malcolm Gladwell From The New Yorker |
In the May 22nd issue of The New Yorker magazine, Malcolm Gladwell profiles Cesar Millan, the host of the National Geographic TV show DOG WHISPERER.
Here, with Ben Greenman, Gladwell discusses Millan and what canine behavior tells us about human behavior.
BEN GREENMAN: What first got you interested in Cesar Millan?
MALCOLM GLADWELL: A friend of mine told me about Cesar’s show, “Dog Whisperer,” and swore it was the best thing on television. So I began to watch, and I was quickly hooked. If you are a dog person—and I am—it’s pretty irresistible.

Cesar Challenges The Canadian Pitbull Ban |
Cesar Millan headed north in May to address the Canadian press and answer some hard questions regarding the Canadian Pitbull Ban.
TORONTO (CP) -- Ontario's pit bull ban is an unfair law based on ignorance -- because getting rid of a breed of dog doesn't get rid of the problem, says celebrity dog trainer Cesar Millan.
Millan, known as the Dog Whisperer for his uncanny ability to solve canine behavioural problems, was in Toronto this week promoting his National Geographic Channel show and the recent DVD release of the first season's episodes.
"In the United States, in the '70s, they did the same thing to the Doberman. In the '80s they did it to the German shepherd, in the '90s they did it to the Rottweiler, and now they're doing it to the pit bull," he says.

The Latest Cesar Millan Articles From Pets911.com |
Cesar returns to Pets911.com to answer some of your emails. If you would like your question addressed by Cesar, you can submit it via the Pets911 website.
Dear Cesar,
My friend has a dog who is a very rude crotch sniffer. We work together, and she brings her dog to work every day. She doesn't do it to me, but our clients sometimes get the business end of her nose. I usually catch her before she goes for it, but her owner can't always get there in time. She says, "That's what dogs do!" And, "Cesar says you should let them sniff you."
I say, "Cesar wouldn't approve!" What do you think?

Dear Sylvia,
I do agree that, to a dog, your "name" is the scent you project - and in the dog world, that begins with the scent of the "private parts". In that regard, your friend is correct, but we as owners can and should learn to regulate the intensity of this very natural behavior and set limits to how close we allow a dog to get to a new visitor. The truth is, a dog is able to get "scent information" from us from as far as 3 or 4 feet away! They don't have to be too "up close and personal" to find out what they need to know about us.

Success Story & Next Month's Issue |
Tune in next month for summer tips from Cesar and news about the follow up DVD to his PEOPLE TRAINING FOR DOGS DVD. In the meantime, here is another great success story from Ann Hamilton.
Hi all,
I wanted to tell you all what happened to me this morning and how Cesar helped me possibly save two lives. I had my fresh-out-of-TPLO-surgery Rottweiler, when I noticed two children who had missed their bus walking back home. Suddenly a black minivan came to a quick stop, honked his horn multiple times, and told the kids to get in, he would give them a ride. The kids didn't act like they knew this person as they approached to get in. I asked the girl whether she knew him or not and she didn't. At that point the man started trying to intimidate the children to get in the car. He became very verbally aggressive. I knew I had to do something because the kids were getting in.
I yelled to the kids not to get in. He became more intimidating and aggressive. What was I, a small girl with a lame Rottie, going to do? Then I swear it was like a rerun of Cesar came into my head. I could see his face and hear his words in my head. I lifted my chest, raised my head, relaxed my arms, marched over to the fence, pointed at the man while making heavy eye contact, pointed away and said in a loud slow voice "Get the hell out of here now!!" This made him silent, but he didn't move. I leaned slightly forward, widened my eyes, slightly rolled my lip and repeated myself again loudly, all the while envisioning that I was Cesar. He growled and drove off. I couldn't have handled that situation without Cesar's amazing teachings. I knew I had to be the only alpha in that
situation or people could die. Cesar's teachings gave me the strength and skill to do that. Thank you Cesar Millan and the Dog Psychology Center!
Love you all,
Ann Hamilton and Ulysses the Rott
(thanks for your
devotion to Rotties!) |
