Alliseaa HAS tried to bite when someone tried to come into my yard, I told them not to because she would but
they didn't listen and it was a good thing I was there to hold her back.

Thanks for answering my query. So she hasn't bitten just tried.

Maybe some people should get bit......its the only way they will learn.

A good thing she hasn't bit anyone. I am sure the last thing Neomama wants is her beautiful girl euthanized and to be splattered across the evening news...

A poodle pulling contest. I never would have thought! That ole dog is pulling like his life depended on it.

Sounds like things are getting a little personal. I've read every one of your posts. Have you read mine? If so, there would be no need to re- ask all the same questions I've already answered. What dogs do I prefer, which ones illict emotion from me? I've listed several kennels who have dogs that I prefer. Do you remember( I'm considering Rivale, Amore,Apex,and Bodyguard.) As far as speaking to breeders, and meeting them that will come in time. I'm not ready for a CC as I don't have a fully fenced in yard, the house I live in is fairly small, I have a small dog aggressive 8 year old JRT and I don't feel it would be fair to him or the new Corsi puppy to have them together in such a small house without seperating them constantly. How many Corsi have I seen in person I've already mentioned this twice, but I have no problem repeating it again. I HAVE NEVER MET A CORSI IN REAL LIFE YET! I believe that is the fourth time I've said that. I haven't spoken to any breeders yet. Most of the Corsi breeders in my area I'm not interested in their dogs, I will speak to the breeders of my choice, and visit some of them when I'm closer to getting my pup. Yes, I did meet Jessica and a couple of her dogs, I even posted about it. Just curious, what does that have to do with anything? (this is kind of like how this "CC weight debate started") You want to go back to talking about Neos? You've never answered my other question in my last post, do you think my choice of Corsi resembles a Boxer? Because overall I just don't see it .
My main reason was you seem to portray yourself as an expert on many of these breeds, which you have NOT met in person. It is awfully difficult to really know anything about a breed if you have never seen or put your hands on one, and by hands on I am not referring to a keyboard.
Funny enough I have met dogs from each of those kennels you name, pretty sure I have pics of my son @ 4 playing with Bodyguards Mufasa not long after he received his SCH 3, somewhere on a memory stick. I will try to dig those up.
Do I think they resemble Boxers, well the only dogs you have specifically mentioned is Xander and Bogart. They are both nice looking dogs with great temperaments from what I am told. Having met some of his offspring I liked them. Personally I am not a fan of Doc Holiday, and his dam I do find to be Hypertype. As for the other kennels, which dogs draw your attention? I have seen quite a few different types come out of Rivale. From BIG BONED dogs to smaller... From more Neo influence to hyper... Some fantastic dogs as well... I was looking for dogs with specific names that you are interested in.
As for meeting breeders, I was not talking about to purchase a pup, I was talking about meeting breeders to LEARN about the breed, to get some experience, to meet some dogs... get some real life experience with these breeds besides that of the keyboard warrior

Cody, you're for the most part right. As I 've stated a few posts back, I tend to think I'm always right. it is often not the case.(but I wouldn't go as far as to say Ithink I'm an expert because I am the first to admit I've never met one in real life.) I do appoligise. I'm not trying to be a "keyboard warrior" even though by definition that's kind of what I'm being LOL. I think I'm getting a little carried away with the whole forum thing. I've never posted on forums up untill recently. I think I'm going to take your advice and go out and meet a few breeders, and stop posting so much! It's just around winter season, my work is fairly slow, money is somewhat tight so I have alot of time on my hands to "be a keyboard warrior" . LOL, I also appoligise for arguing with you about all things CC, it is very apperant from what you've said you are more involved in the CC breed than I will ever be. So once again I'm sorry. Specific Cane Corsi that I like Xander, Bogart, Bodyguard's Mufasa, Apex's Ten, Apex's Tuff. I like those dogs not only for their looks, (as I know they do vary in look and weight.) but for the accomplishments they've acquired. Like I said, I AM going to meet a few local breeders soon to atleast get an idea of what a Cane Corso is. Could you reccomend any breeders in Michigan to go check out? Otherwise I might go to Ohio which seems to have quite a few Corsi breeders (including Scandifio). I've also recently started volunteering at a local non kill animal shelter to not only help out, but also to get more hands on dog experience. Even though for my age I do have a fair amount of dog experience already. So everything I say on this forum does not come from the net. But also my real life dog experience.So sorry if I've gotten on anybody's nerves. I'm going to try to stop being such a Know it all (especially since I don't LOL).

Sarcasm......just like people hunting season.

I do wish more people testing their dogs guarding instinct, though. "Will" and "do" are two different things, I just would rather know.

I understand what you mean, but testing in a controlled situation is the safest way :)
The hard part is finding some one actually qualified to do such tests, not just some ghetto trainer banging pots and throwing buckets.

I agree Cody and understand that, it just perplexes me that people will go all out for some events and not others. Everyone's situation is different it was just one thing I never understood even with "my" breed. :/
