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. LN |

diddy skrev: in thread ups.com: whittled the following words: 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. As i read about the breed it is not enouth to train the dog alone. It need to be socialized a lot. LN |

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

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. Suja |

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. Beth snip http://www.canecorso.org/ I love boxers also ! Be very diligent with the new dog in lovingly, yet firmly training and socializing her. Mirelle |

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. 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. 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 them. A lot can go wrong if this is handled poorly. There is no club for this breed in the area. LN |
