Book Release Timed to Cesar's New Nat Geo WILD Series
Cesar Millan's Leader of the Pack,' Premiering Saturday, Jan. 5, 2013
WASHINGTON (Nov. 26, 2012)-Not everyone can be a dog whisperer, but everyone can be the leader of their dog pack. Cesar Millan returns to television and bookstores in January with a new book, CESAR MILLAN'S SHORT GUIDE TO A HAPPY DOG: 98 Essential Tips and Techniques (National Geographic Books; ISBN 978-1-4262-1190-4; on sale Jan. 1, 2013; $21.95; hardcover), and a new Nat Geo WILD series, Cesar Millan's Leader of the Pack, premiering Saturday, Jan. 5, at 10 p.m. ET/11 p.m. PT.
In CESAR MILLAN'S SHORT GUIDE TO A HAPPY DOG, Millan shows us how we can take charge and have a healthy, balanced dog. Moving beyond obedience-school basics, the book delves into important topics, such as picking the right dog for you, understanding the nature of your dog and identifying the causes of some of the most prevalent misbehaviors - and how to correct them. The chapter Nine Simple Principles for a Balanced Dog lays out core lessons based on Millan's uncanny understanding of dog psychology. Drawing on his own struggles and life experiences, Millan shows how dogs are influenced by their owners' stressors and joys.
CESAR MILLAN'S SHORT GUIDE TO A HAPPY DOG has advice on issues such as:
Putting an end to excessive barking;
Introducing a new puppy to your home or another dog;
Addressing separation anxiety;
Establishing boundaries and the proper way to enforce them;
Dealing with overexcitement through holistic methods such as smell;
Re-establishing your place as pack leader to eliminate aggression.
The book is more than a training guide; it is also an intimate look into Millan's own life. He discusses his journey to the United States and his early life here as an illegal immigrant; his child's difficulties with ADHD; the death of his beloved pit bull, Daddy; his recent and unexpected divorce; and even his own depression and attempted suicide. While he and his family were dealing with these changes, he noticed the effect on his dog. Millan found that life changes dramatically impact dogs, and in this book he shares ways to manage those changes.
Easy to follow and packed with Millan's remarkable insights into human and dog behavior, CESAR MILLAN'S SHORT GUIDE TO A HAPPY DOG is an inspiring tool to help people live a better life with a canine family member.
In each episode of Cesar Millan's Leader of the Pack, premiering Jan. 5 on Nat Geo WILD, Millan combats the global issue of canine abandonment, giving unadoptable dogs a second chance and coaching families across Europe who are vying for the opportunity to adopt these lucky pups.
