Ep 7. Triple Dog Trouble

In season 4 episode 7 of Dog Whisperer with Cesar Millan, titled "Triple Dog Trouble," Cesar helps three different families with three unruly dogs who are causing chaos in their homes.

The first family has a pit bull named Rocky who is aggressive towards other dogs. Rocky's owners want to be able to take him to the dog park without him constantly picking fights.

Cesar works with Rocky's owners to establish themselves as the pack leaders and teaches them how to assert their authority in a way that Rocky will understand.

Next, Cesar meets with a young couple whose pug, Luna, is very possessive over her food. Luna growls and snaps at anyone who gets too close when she's eating. Cesar observes that Luna's behavior stems from anxiety and insecurity. He teaches the owners how to create a more structured routine for Luna and how to take control of her feeding habits.

Lastly, Cesar helps a family with a terrier mix named Max who is extremely anxious and scared of just about everything. Max is so scared that he has even started to show aggressive behavior towards his owners. Cesar identifies Max's fear as stemming from a lack of socialization and exposure to the outside world.

Throughout the episode, Cesar emphasizes the importance of establishing a strong leadership presence in the home and creating a structured routine for dogs. He also highlights the importance of providing dogs with adequate exercise and stimulation in order to prevent undesirable behaviors.

Overall, "Triple Dog Trouble" is an episode that showcases Cesar's expertise in dealing with a variety of dog behavior issues and emphasizes the importance of taking a holistic approach to training and caring for your furry friends.
