How to Be Calm and Assertive

  Our mom is a big fan of that funny man, who roller blades with his pack of dogs. She has been trying some of his tactics on us. I hate to say it but, they work! The first time she took the three of us out and tried the "Cesar walk" with us, well, before we knew it we were all walking either beside or a step behind her. It was like she hypnotized us or something! We had no control over our actions! Grrrrrrrrrrrrrr!   She paraded us down the street, with her head up in the air, her shoulders up, and walked or I should say "marched" at a steady pace. I just know she used mind control on us. Even Mandy fell under her spell!
  Well mom gets these emails from that dog whisperer guy and this one article talks about how to be calm and assertive.

  Dogs use constant energy to communicate. Energy is what Cesar calls beingness; it is who and what you are in every moment. Dogs don’t know each other by name, but by the energy they project and the activities they share. They know humans in the same way.
  As humans, we too are communicating with energy – whether we realize it or not. And, though we may attempt to persuade, explain, and rationalize all day long, these energy signals are the only messages getting across to our dogs.
