Cesar's Way: The Natural, Everyday Guide to Understanding and Correcting Common Dog Problems There are at least 68 million dogs in America, and their owners lavish billions of dollars on them every year. So why do so many pampered pets have problems? In this definitive and accessible guide, Cesar Millan - star of National Geographic Channel's hit show Dog Whisperer with Cesar Millan - reveals what dogs truly need to live a happy and fulfilled life. Cesar's formula for a contented and balanced dog seems impossibly simple: exercise, discipline, and affection, in that order. Taking readers through the basics of dog psychology and behavior, Cesar shares the inside details of some of his most fascinating cases, using them to illustrate how common behavior issues develop and, more important, how they can be corrected. * NOTE: Although Cesar does walk his dogs and promotes off leash time in a non-fenced in area, GHG is never suggesting you try this. We would like to take this opportunity to remind you that upon adoption you signed a legal binding contract with GHG to never leave your greyhound off leash when not in a completely fenced in area. The book is available at Amazon .com
