Default cane corso

sorry for my bad english ;O)

Can anyone tell me a little about cane corso.

My husband is a dog trainer(of Boxer's - the best breed of course ;o).
Someone has asked him to help training and socialize a cc. She is 9
month. The owner is the 3th owner. She seemes nice bud don't like other
dogs. First owner had the dog in only 1 week. 2. owner was as i now
eksperinced with the breed and a ok owner.

We absolutly dont now anything about the breed. We even didnt know what
breed she was the first time we see here ;O)

No other club wants to train the dog. And we have no eksperience with
the the breed an as wee kcan read the breed is special in many ways.
Not like boxers og rottweiler at all.

Wee dont now how much she has been socialiced.

Wee dont want to do more damache to the dog but the owner can't get
help anywhere else.

Any training is good, and that dog (and owners)need all the help
they can get.
One wonders why they even got the dog if they don't know the
fundamentals of training enough to train it themselves


The new owner is young. And took the dog so it didnt hav to be put
down.
The dog seems nice. But there are some responsibilities to the others
who train there too, if something happend. I read from af homepage
about the breed and it was a little disturbent what i read.

The dog needs to be trained.If you don't think you are up to the job, refer
elsewhere, (I'd train the dog, if it seemed nice) and make provisions (like
I would for any other agressive dog)


As i read about the breed it is not enouth to train the dog alone. It
need to be socialized a lot.

LN


There is no where to refere to.

I think he will train the dog but he wants to now as much as possible
about the breed and how to bee with the dog - wery gentle for eksample
an still help here to bee be the leeder ?? What does he have to be
concerned about with this breed.

Boxers can be aggressive too, with each other but they are not so big
and you can get them to stop fighting.

He gets no mony at all for any training and he has trained dog for 10
years, But never meet this breed before.

Actually they are a little like Rottweilers, but more protective and
aloof.

Wee dont now how much she has been socialiced.

Anyone who has had experience in training dominant breeds should do
just fine with a CC. But if the current *owner* of the dog isn't the
kind of person who exhibits confidence, or is someone who can't (or
won't) provide this dog with strong leadership, your best bet (and the
owner's) is to work hard to find this dog an owner who is/will.

Your owner doesn't sound like he's that kind of person to me, or you
probably wouldn't be here asking these questions.

Plus, if the dog hasn't *already* received a good amount of *early*
socialization (and it doesn't sound like he has), he could eventually
become a real handful, especially for a novice owner.

Somehow the dog made his way to Denmark, so there must be some
breeders or importers there. You may want to locate and then contact
one of them for some help (or have the owner do it).

Good luck!

You really should find someone with experience in the breed. They should be
able to give you proper guidance on what you can do, even if it is over the
phone or email.

If the choices are that you help the owner train the dog or the dog gets no
training at all, then I guess you should get the dog started on basic
obedience. Obedience training should not stop with one class, and should be
an ongoing activity, potentially for the life of the dog. As you may have
found out, this breed is dog aggressive, and highly suspicious of strangers,
so having exceptional control over the dog's behavior is extremely
important. Since you have worked with Rottweilers, you should have a fair
idea of how to go about establishing leadership, and it is vitally important
that the owner learn to be in charge as well. This is the wrong dog for
someone who is a door mat. I would *strongly* suggest however that you find
the breed club or responsible breeders in your area and seek guidance from
them. A lot can go wrong if this is handled poorly.

FWIW, one of the best trained dogs I've ever met was a Cane Corso. He was
dog aggressive, highly protective of his family and aloof with strangers,
yet could be taken just about anywhere because of the exceptional control
the owner had over the dog. They can be highly trainable dogs.

LN,
I've had Cane Corsos in my obedience classes.
Basically what some others have said is the way to go. The owner needs
to be a no nonesense sort that is willing to train the dog for the life
of the dog. Also, the dog should not be allowed off lead around other
dogs unless the owner has absolute control.
The Cane Corsos that I've been around have been owned by serious dog
people and were lovely dogs. Out in public they accepted strangers
without a problem. Apparently on their own turf they were much more
suspicious.

I love boxers also !

Be very diligent with the new dog in lovingly, yet firmly training and
socializing her.

Next time we meet the owner we have printet something about the breed
from the internet. And we will tell here that it will be good to be
member of this breed
-club.

He has not trained so many Rotts but a few. Many of out club members
dont want to have problem-dogs(rotts) in our club. And aften it is
these rott -owner's that ask us to help.

From the internet i god the idea that the breed is not so strong

mentally - that the breed is easy to break down so you have to be wery
gentle or it could be dangerous.
I thunk of rotts as wery strong mentally. Both breeds are clever it
seems to me ;O) Not like Boxer's *GG*

This is the wrong dog for
someone who is a door mat. I would *strongly* suggest however that you find
the breed club or responsible breeders in your area and seek guidance from

There is no club for this breed in the area.
