Dogs are our best friends. Would you really want to harm you friends? That’s what Cesars method insists on doing to our canine comrades. Mark Derr should be considered correct about his accusations about dog trainer Cesar Millan because his methods harm the dogs, fails to produce lasting results, and overall, is faked by Cesar Millan. Cesar’s method should be considered wrong because it inflicts emotional and physical harm on the dog. This is apparent when Mark Derr writes “...his confrontational methods include physical and psychological intimidation, like finger jabs, choke collars, extended sessions on a treadmill and what is called flooding, or overwhelming the animal with the thing it fears…” (Derr 603). This is obviously no way to treat an animal, let alone your pet. Years of mistreatment will lead to new, unprecedented medical problems within the dog. Stress is a major problem with dogs that are mistreated. Too much stress causes the dog to snap and cloak itself in a…

It's important to note that Cesar didn't go to law school, but it didn't limit him or stop him to do something significant such as fighting for the civil rights of farmworkers. After he had returned from WW II, he began to find a way to gain the support of others to change the unjust laws that approved in 1942 through the Braceros program. U.S passed this law during WW II to bring foreign workers into the United States because all Americans went to the war. Although, the Department of Justice…
It was also difficult to recruit enough workers to commit to their cause. If you involved yourself in one of these strikes, you would risk the already limited opportunities. The bosses of the fields threatened to fire workers and even mentioned deportation. Many of the workers lived in fear and waited for someone to make a bold move, and that someone was César Chávez.
