The deal with cesar millan is that in these extreme cases they show on tv for aggression, the dog has been in an aggressive mindstate for a while, the owners have allowed it, and often encouraged the aggressive behavior and to "break" a dog that always gets his way using aggression takes more force than a cookie and a pat on the head. I have used cesar's methods to prevent issues, and to assert dominance, but keep in mind what you saw last night was desparate times calling for deperate measures...i would rather have cesar milan break my dog into submission using some force to do so than the alternative for some of these dogs, which is to be put to sleep. Remember that what you are seeing on TV are the MOST extreme examples.
