Product Description
Bestselling author Cesar Millan takes his principles of dog psychology a step further, showing you how to develop the calm-assertive energy of a successful pack leader and use it to improve your dog’s life–and your own.
Filled with practical tips and techniques as well as real-life success stories from his clients (including the Grogan family, owners of Marley from Marley & Me) and his popular television show Dog Whisperer with Cesar Millan, Cesar helps you understand and read your dog’s energy as well as your own so that you can move beyond just correcting behavioral issues and take your connection with your dog to the next level.
The principles of calm-assertive energy will help you become a better pack leader in every area of your life, improving your relationships with friends, family, and coworkers.
In addition, Cesar addresses several important issues for the first time, including what you need to know about the major dog behavior tools available and the difference between “personality” and “instability.”
Ultimately, what emerges from Be the Pack Leader are both happier dogs and happier, more centered owners.

 Seriously Over Rated November 23, 2008
Riggs (Chgo)
1. He is not an expert on animal/dog behavior.
2. Does not practice current scientific findings on canine behavior and/or training by the Animal Behaviour Inst. or by the American Assc. of Pet Dog Trainers. Nor approved by either.
3. Not positive based.
4. Yet another media based push & sell by non-professionals.
Dogs are not objects, they are living beings with thoughts, emotions, feelings and are prone to most mental, physical problems & diseases as humans. Just as humans learn best by positive, stress free, stimulating, fun enviroments & teachers so do our dogs.
I would strongly suggest the dog training books by Pat Miller-very very good and lessons laid out quite well- From basic to "I'm stumped".
And can be bought here too!
I had a "biter" only to find that my dog was noise/sound sensitive, the litter grew up in an area of the home with very little human home sounds. Once I discovered that (which took a small library & conversations with a host of professionals, only then did I figure it out on my own by putting all the pieces together and my dog's young history) I then found Pat Miller's books which led me down the correct path in helping my dog overcome his fears. He no longer bites, he is very very smart & loving, but he does still notice every little sound, even the vets office music, and he will startle with a sudden noise-much like a horse. But zero bites! TG I found out about desensitization, counter conditoning, and positive training. I have a healthy wonderful weimariner-my best bud.

Cesar is so in touch with Nature, we should all strive for this in our lives. Our Animals will thank us and so will our human friends. He gives us tools and advice on using them, but, in the end it all comes back to treating a dog like a dog and not a object.
 Did not like this method November 17, 2008

It is just my personal taste, but I consider this not a nice way to train your dog. There are other methods out there that use different methods.

After reading Cesar's first book and becoming familiar with his training and teaching methods, I struggled with translating those techniques to suit what my dog needed and what I wanted. This book made it all come together and more.
I highly recommend this book and suggest reading Cesar's first book in addition.
Great book. October 31, 2008

Enjoyed the book and found it helpful, but not magical when actually implementing the suggestions. If I could get my Great Dane to read it all my problems would be solved! Liked the suggestions on using the dog training tips in dealing with others in our daily lives.
