A Letter To National Geographic
Flody Suarez’ Labrador wasn’t the only dog suffering abuse, Cesar faced numerous other claims as well. The American Humane Society, one of the oldest and most well-known animal protection organizations sent National Geographic a letter, worried that some of Cesar’s techniques on the show were “inhumane” and “potentially harmful.” The non-profit organization cited many instances of animal abuse on The Dog Whisperer.

Shocked Fans
There was one episode in particular that shocked fans, in addition to the American Humane Society. Millan can be seen holding a dog up by a choke chain before pinning it to the ground in an act of dominance. The director of the Tufts University: Animal Behavior Unit claimed that the improper training techniques used by Cesar on his show set dog training back 20 years.
