Ok, I have this rescue from a puppy mill. She is a year and 3 months old. A cane corso. She loves me and my husband very much although at times very timid. She is walking good on a leash, although any human being around her she will look right at them and await a look back and she would lash out barking, growling and hackles up. This happened when I took her into the vets. I didn't feel sorry for her and also didn't give a harsh correction, instead I would give her a little poke at her hind end and say nothing. This distracted her. I then just walked around and just let her see people. Other dogs and animals were not a problem it was the human variety. She settled in with just a few growls after about an hour. I have also been walking her in high traffic areas with a lot of people. I won't let people touch her, just give her a treat on the ground beside her. I won't let them look right at her nor will I let them talk to her. She seems to be getting better. She doesn't know people at all. The trust is not there. If anyone has suggestions that would be great!!!!ray: She is a beautiful girl that needs help and hopefully a new forever home.
