If anyone is considered the demon boy of dog behavior by the professional training community, it would be Cesar Millan, whose “Dog Whisperer” show on the National Geographic Channel has made him a household name.

Millan’s techniques, his approach — and, let’s face it, his popularity — have stoked the ire of many positive trainers and behaviorists, who offer laundry lists of his inadequacies: His methods are inappropriately force-based. His academic credentials are nonexistent. He relies too heavily on antiquated models of wolf hierarchy and dominance. His success stories cannot be replicated by regular dog owners.
