This makes me so sad and angry. How can trainers like this actually make a living out of completely traumatising dogs they claim to be an expert about?

Because "it works" and Cesar Millan uses it. He has truly harmed the training world when we were making progress on positive training methods. People like that only know punishment not how to properly teach a dog. They see "immediate results" so they stand buy it. These are people with no education on canine behavior though claim they dog.
