When it was revealed that Cesar Millan was set to be a guest on Alan Titchmarsh's daytime television show, there was an outcry from dog lovers everywhere. As Alan told Cesar during the interview, they had never before received so many complaints about the prospect of a guest appearing on their show.
Members of Dogsey and dog lovers everywhere got in contact with the show's production team to send them links to YouTube videos where they said that Cesar Millan can clearly be seen punching and kicking dogs. The producers took note and seem to have done a great job in advising Alan Titchmarsh accordingly, because he certainly did not hold back the punches when interviewing Cesar, to the appreciation of dog lovers everywhere.
Alan said, "You punish dogs, you hit them. I’ve seen you punch a dog in the throat to get it to behave and to most people, like myself, I would say that is totally unacceptable as a way of training a dog." He also said it was "barbaric", and pressed Cesar on his reasoning for employing such practices.
Alan Titchmarsh, we salute you. Thank you for speaking up on behalf of dogs and dog lovers everywhere, and as one of the largest dog related websites in the world, you have our full and unflagging support.
