It's an up and down thing, the human goals, because the human is always an explorer, an adventurist. Cesar Millan More Quotes by Cesar Millan More Quotes From Cesar Millan Dogs have found themselves in an odd predicament by living with humans. In the wild, dogs don't need humans to achieve balance. They have a pack leader, work for food and travel with the pack. When we bring them into our world, we need to help them achieve balance by fulfilling their needs as nature intended. This takes exercise and discipline before affection, and always maintaining your calm, assertive pack leadership. Cesar Millan our-worlddogexercise Think about a dog’s ability to forgive. This to me is love. Cesar Millan forgivingdogthinking Whenever I've been bitten, it's because I made a mistake. I either misread the dog's body language or let my guard down at the wrong time. Cesar Millan wrong-timelanguagemistake It's a big mistake when encyclopedias say "loyal" - this dog, this breed has this ability to be loyal, to be a one person dog. I don't agree with that. I think all dogs are honest, all dogs have integrity, all dogs are loyal and they're all capable of loving you. It doesn't come from the breed. It comes from the dog. Cesar Millan dogmistakeintegrity Americans are very big about loving the dog first, so when you tell them you have to set rules and limitations, a lot of people believe it's going to hurt their feelings. They're actually looking for you to be the pack leader. Cesar Millan hurtdogbelieve Breed is among the least important things about a dog. It's more important to find a dog with compatible energy and needs that will fit into your lifestyle. Cesar Millan importantenergydog I think some dogs may like the attention of being dressed up by their humans because they interpret it as affection, but unless it's something that you've made the dog used to from the time it was a puppy, it's probably going to always feel a little weird and unnatural to the dog. This doesn't mean I think people should never dress their dogs up as long as they do it for the right reasons. If you're putting booties and a coat on your dog to protect it from the weather, then that's a pretty legitimate reason. Cesar Millan dogmeanthinking America focuses on being very intelligent because that's how you make more money. Cesar Millan more-moneyintelligentamerica The biggest mistake people make is assuming that their dogs think like little humans, and that they can negotiate behavior with them, but it doesn't work that way. Cesar Millan dogmistakethinking I do think there are some dogs - although it's very, very rare - that do have to be kept away from all other dogs and all humans except for the one strong pack leader whom they trust. But I think I've run into less than a handful of dogs that were like that in my entire career. Cesar Millan strongdogrunning It is tougher for a dog to live without rules because he doesn't know what is expected of him. It is the mind, the body, the heart, not just the heart. Love is not enough. Cesar Millan dogheartlove-is Dogs don't rationalize. They don't hold anything against a person. They don't see the outside of a human but the inside of a human. Cesar Millan inner-beautydoganimal It becomes very obvious, by reading a dog, how stable or unstable his human companion is. Our dogs are our mirrors. Cesar Millan mirrorsreadingdog Some dogs could play fetch all day long, while others have absolutely no interest in chasing a ball. Some might love "find the treat" type puzzle toys and others may completely ignore them. The important things are that your dog finds the toy interesting without becoming obsessed over it, and that it is size and safety appropriate for your dog. A Chihuahua is probably not going to be a good match to a Kong as big as she is, and you wouldn't want to risk having your Malamute swallow one of those smaller size tennis balls. Cesar Millan dogplaylong I am not brutal or cruel to animals. My mission has always been to save dogs - especially troubled and abandoned dogs. I've dedicated my life to this. Cesar Millan abandoneddoganimal Dogs in America get more affection than women in most Third World countries. Cesar Millan dogcountryamerica Dog parks can be a fantastic way to socialize your dog, but it's important for owners to understand that a dog park isn't exercise and isn't a substitute for walk. A visit to the dog park is fun - play time. Cesar Millan dogexercisefun Aggression is not the problem, is the outcome of a problem. Cesar Millan aggressionoutcomesproblem Women can learn a lot about a guy because women, for the most part, want a guy to care about their feelings, to be a guy that is responsible. Women want to attract you, but they want you to know more how they feel. When a guy has a great relationship with a dog, it really says a lot about him. Cesar Millan guydogfeelings When you're poor, you have nothing to lose and be afraid of. Holding onto the dream and having nothing to lose is what helped me succeed.
