Hi,
I'm 19 now and I feel i'm finally responsible enough to have a dog since i always wanted one, so i looked up online for various dog breeds. What i'm looking for is a dog that doesn't bark much, is athletic so i can take him for some runs, doesn't shed and that is calm. Plus, my mom is home alone the entire day and she gets so lonely that i wanted to give her a companion.
I wanted a dutch shepperd or a Husky but they are so energetic that i'm afraid they would get too destructive and my parents would force me to give them away.
I'm able to take the dog for a walk at 6 a.m and 7 p.m but like i said, i dont have a yard.
However, I never had a dog before and a lot of people say that Corsos aren't for novice's and that they can't live in apartments.
I watched tons of dog training videos and I'm a big guy so I think i could handle the corso, but I'm afraid of what might happen. I love animals and I would be devastated if I had to give him away.
Anyone here with the same conditions can give some feedback ?
PS: No, i can't adopt one. I live in Portugal and there are almost no dogs here, especially Cane Corsos. I found some breeders though.
Thanks!
