    We decided to spruce things up and fix some things under the hood. If you notice any issues, feel free to contact us as we're sure there are a few things here or there that we might have missed in our upgrade.

First real threat and natural response

So wow just wrote out twice on my phone the text that went with this post. This forum is very hard to use on my phone as far as posting goes. It constantly wants me to log in and during uploading and then I just was denied the edit post due to 3 minute time limit. Ahhh well here's one last shot at writing the story. Ruger and I were walking a protective mother goose stood up on our left and honked and flapped at us. There was a nest under her with about 5 eggs. Then from what felt like out of no where a male goose was on our left and was honking. It was then Ruger went into protection mode. A real threat to him and a first time at that. He began barking and his hair stood up. We continued our walk and then down the way a bit I praised his behavior and that was that. It took a minute to come down from the situation but all in all i was proud of him. At 5 months now he's really starting to come into his own. It is an amazing thing to see. I love being a cane corso owner. I sure do feel blessed to have him in my life!

Ruger is so stinkin cute! Those geese can get violent! My husband is always warning the kids to stay away from them. At 5 months I'm surprised he didn't get scared. Good boy!! :)

April Nicole he may have been scared/ protectuve.... It was a lot all at once. We were ambushed.... but it was a great exposure that we navigated through and he impressed me with his reaction. He is stinking cute. Literally he's stinky and needs a bath and i don't even care I snuggle him stink and all. That's how I know it's real love! Ahhh swoon! Lol
