          Did you even read the article? He left a poorly socialised dog untethered and unattended.

          That would stil be extremely irresponsible dog ownership if he had been the undisputed king of dog trainers for 800 years.

            Thus why the source should be questioned… it’s TMZ, all trashy celebrity gossip. I doubt this incident even happened.

          There are doctors with 25 years of experience that still fuck up constantly and get away with it.

          Argument from authority is a fallacy for a reason.

            The discussion is literally that there are bad owners and those owners are solely responsible for the pit bulls reputation. I’m proving that wrong by showing an “expert” in the field… If an expert in the field cannot do it… Then why would a lay person be able to?

            This isn’t argument from authority. You just like screaming random shit to shut down discussions because you don’t have any better evidence against the argument.

      Cesar Milan is considered a hack by almost every reputable dog trainer, and his methods conflict with every modern study I have seen on how to effectively train a dog.

          I mean, you can Google it and find countless sources, if you really care they are readily available within seconds.

          The Tl;dr is that his methods are based in dominance theory. Dominance theory has been widely debunked and the methods that arose from it are widely considered to exacerbate fear and aggression related issues in dogs. Caesar’s celebrity status has contributed to its persistence in the popular imagination.
