Finally!! Some one with some sense! It's been bugging me for days every time 'pack leader' has been mentioned.The dominance/pack leader theory has long since been disproven in dogs. Even the guy who came up with it admitted he was wrong.
This has been an out of date theory for 15 - 20yrs. Dogs don't see humans as dogs, they know we're people. Furthermore, they don't see babies as people. Dogs don't know what babies are, and that's why they behave differently around them than they do us. They start recognising children as people from when the child is about age 7.
Any trainer who mentions the words pack leader is out of date with current training methods and should be well steered away from. Dominating a dog leads to them biting at worst or some reaction towards you or someone else at best. It has since been proven that force free training and guidance is what works. Even the police have changed their training methods!
That bloke is qualified for nothing. I watch what he does to dogs and I see him break them down and then watch the dog shut down.Look up the dominance theory in dogs and how it’s been disproven.
The days of idiots like Caesar Milan with his alpha and pack leader are numbered.
A shut down dog is a dangerous one
