    I thought he whispered to dogs? Instead he just hits them!

    the chickien pooped on him. of course the chicken is SCARED of the dog! lol

    usualy a dog (if you have treated it like a dog and not a human!) will wait to see your reaction to its killing anything, if you give it a kick or shout, it wont do it again,
    but if you hunting and it kills, and you show it ur happy, it will work just for your pleasure,
    problem is, ppl treat dogs lyk humans, then the dog becomes dominant and stops giving a about what u think, then its ur job to please the dog,

    I don’t like Millan either, he just does what anyone who’s had dogs for long does, with the addition of snapping at the dog for little reason and hissing at them..
    PS- the last time I saw a man with dogs that cowed, he’d been beating them. Millan’s psychologically abusing them.

  • h2oteen:

    Either smack him with it, or hang it around his neck until it’s a bit stinky.

  • fun4uto99:

    I have an outside dog that is chained up next to the gate of the chicken pen. the chickens actually come up and lay down next to him, they even eat his food. He is a very playful dog and has killed 1 rooster playing with it to the best guess. I did what the old farmer next door said to do.

    I picked the rooster up and smacked him with it. not hard, but i yelled real loud. problem solved.

    prey drive ? its scary drive work ehhh:(

  • cloudmaka:

    You didnt see high play drive because it was being controlled. It is like… if you had a kid with his arm back about to throw a rock at a car…. you stop them there instead of when he actually throws the rock at the car.

    and in any case, dont judge what you know NOTHING about ….. idiot :)

    he’s like nipping him like he would be nipped at by the pack leader

    I have a lab and he loves my chickens. he protects them

  • CarbonNocturne:

    I didn’t see high …
    I didn’t see high prey drive. I have dogs with high prey drive. That chicken would have been dead the second he brought it out.

    And in any case, Millan is an idiot.

  • selfsufficientlife:

    It does look like …
    It does look like he is hitting the dog but I don’t think he is actually ‘hitting’ it – I think it is supposed to be a correction like a pretend bite, to snap the dog out of its ‘I must have that chicken’ zone. I agree, you should definately not be hitting your dog! As you suggest, the noise disturbance method would probably be a good alternative. Ceasar is a very experienced dog trainer and knows the dog psychology behind his methods. Different dogs will have different underlying issues.

  • hwy29:

    this is just my …
    this is just my opion. i dont think anybody should hit a dog? it will make the dog more fearful when a stranger tries to pet the dog. maby not that dog. what about a largerbreed dog such a shepherd or doberman etc. i would use a lease and a collar or the noise disturbance would be fine.thanks hwy29

  • Amhailte:

    I’m sure he knows …
    I’m sure he knows what he’s doing, but on the other hand the dog doesn’t look like that particular dog has a lot of prey drive in the first place? I mean, he was able to have the dog there with a dropped leash from the start. Would have been more impressive if he’d started with a dog that was dead set on eating the chicken, IMO.

  • Troja20:

    The guy is an idiot …
    The guy is an idiot, the dog was afraid because he had beaten him/her with his hand.

    And you can`t take his killer instinct.

  • Karletto555:

    hes just scaring the dog; after 2week hes gone the dog will eat both chickens muahahahaha >)

  • Weaseldog2001:

    I’ve found that …
    I’ve found that pups raised with chickens don’t have the killer drive. If they are allowed in with the chickens when they’re young, they see the birds as part of their extended family.

    Likewise, my rooster was hand raised and our poodle mutt adopted him. My rooster thinks he’s a dog. He paces the fence and plays at fence fighting with the dogs.
