Biography

Cesar Millan was born in 1969 on August 27th and actually taught himself how to train dogs by watching his Grandfather work with dogs on his farm in Culiacan Mexico. By watching his Grandfather work he realized that you could achieve more by being consistent and assertive as opposed to shouting and using other negative techniques. Over a period of time Cesar realized that he wanted to train dogs for a living and started training puppies and older dogs at his Dog Psychology Centre in South LA. After running the School for six years from 2002 up until 2008 he came to the attention of some famous celebrities living in Los Angeles. The most famous actor to use his services at this time was Will Smith who quickly recommended the trainer's services to other famous actors. Before long he had built up such a reputation that he was given his own TV show.

Cesar Millan has two sons (at the time of writing) Andre who was born in 1995 and Calvin who was born in 2001. The trainer is married to Illusion and his current show is now in its sixth series and has been broadcast to over 80 countries. However, the TV series is not the only format that the trainer has exhibited his training techniques as he has written countless books and DVDs too.

The techniques that have particularly got some trainers hot under the collar is his use of the 'Alpha Roll'. This technique is when the trainer forces the dog on to it's back and is held there until the owner has displayed his or her dominance. The trainer also reinforces the importance of remaining top dog in the family pack and also the importance of walking your dog.

The traine remains as popular as ever so love him or hate him Cesar Millan is here to stay.
