Ep 3. Dog Fight

In season 1, episode 3 of Cesar 911, titled "Dog Fight," renowned dog behaviorist Cesar Millan is called in to help a couple whose two dogs are in constant conflict with one another. The couple, Jason and Melissa, own a German Shepherd named Anka and a Pit Bull mix named Luna. The dogs can't even be in the same room together without fighting, and the couple is at their wit's end.

Cesar arrives at their home and immediately observes the dogs' behavior. He notices that Luna is constantly seeking attention from her owners, while Anka is more independent and prefers to keep to herself. Cesar also observes that Anka tends to be the instigator of the fights, but Luna doesn't back down and is quick to respond.

Cesar's first step is to establish himself as the pack leader. He shows Jason and Melissa how to walk the dogs properly, with Anka on one side and Luna on the other, and how to use body language to communicate with them. He also introduces them to "calm-assertive energy," which is the state of mind that dogs are naturally drawn to and respond well to.

Next, Cesar works on building a positive association between the two dogs. He sets up a controlled environment where they can be together without the risk of fighting, and uses treats and toys to create a positive association between the dogs. He also shows Jason and Melissa how to redirect Luna's attention when she seeks attention in an inappropriate way, such as barking or jumping.

As the training progresses, Cesar addresses other issues that the couple is having with their dogs. Anka has a habit of jumping on people, which Cesar addresses by teaching her the "off" command. Luna has a habit of getting into the trash, which Cesar addresses by teaching her the "leave it" command.

Throughout the episode, Cesar emphasizes the importance of consistency. He often reminds Jason and Melissa that they need to be consistent in their training and in their interactions with their dogs. He also stresses that dogs are not humans, and that they have different needs and behaviors that need to be respected and addressed.

By the end of the episode, Cesar has helped Jason and Melissa to establish a peaceful coexistence between Anka and Luna. He has also taught them how to communicate effectively with their dogs and how to address other issues that may arise in the future. The couple is grateful for Cesar's help and is happy to have a more harmonious home life with their beloved pets.
