To me dogs are not the students, not the ones that need training. To me a dog is a teacher of life, who teaches us the principles of the most important moral values; honesty, integrity, loyalty, trust, respect and love.

On walks, make sure that your dog is not in front of you, pulling you down the street. Instead, keep your dog to your side or behind you. This will also demonstrate to your dog that you are the alpha figure.

We're already saying it's not the dog, but you need to adopt this lifestyle which is exercise, discipline, and affection.

I used to be called 'a Mexican guy who can walk a pack of dogs.' Now the world calls me 'The Dog Whisperer'.

Breed is among the least important things about a dog. It's more important to find a dog with compatible energy and needs that will fit into your lifestyle.

I rehabilitate dogs, I train people.

The dog is a reflection of your energy, of your behavior. You have to ask, 'What am I doing?' That's the right question to ask.
