Future owner of Cane Corso, who never had the dog of this breed
in his house before, is recommended to choose a Cane Corso-bitch.
She as a rule is very accommodating during training, very
hard-working in comparison with Cane Corso-male; Cane Corso-bitch
becomes attached to her owner much faster and less pretends to be
a leader in the family.
Besides, it is much easier to supervise Cane Corso-bitch during
walk, because the bitches are smaller than Cane Corsos-males.
Alongside with that, the bitch can be as good guardian as the male
and at times is not behind Cane Corso-male in strength and
courage.
However, in this case one should take physiological peculiarities
of Cane
Corso’s different sexes into consideration. So, the bitch
can’t stand when other bitches are around her. Besides, one should
remember that bitches have estrus two times per year and also
sometimes they have hysteric pregnancy.
During estrus that lasts for 3 weeks Cane Corso-bitch attempts
to find a partner for herself among her congeners which their
owners air nearby and this often causes conflicts and squabbles
between the owners of diclinous dogs.
During walk with Cane Corso dog that is in estrual period her
owner will have to exercise maximum patience and be to handy to
hold her from unwanted mating with a male appearing in the same
yard.
Before acquiring Cane Corso dog, while choosing between male and
female, future owner should keep in mind that there is the
possibility to spay a bitch without being afraid for any negative
alterations in her behavior and nature that in turn makes her
better in comparison with male dog.
Moreover, experts-cynologists fully approve this medical procedure
in relation to Cane Corso particularly and the other working
dog breeds and the procedure has been applied for long time
already.
When
choosing Cane Corso male, one should remember that he will
likely to need more hard training. But Cane Corso bitches are
considered to be more appeasable and calm.
All abovementioned of course does not indicate doubtless
advantages of Cane Corsos-bitches. A man–owner is advised to
have a male of this breed, because a woman-owner won’t be able to
cope with the male.
However, owners of Cane Corso’s male dogs should bear in
mind that the males are apt to vagrancy redoubling when it is the
opportunity to visit the bitch which is in estrual period at the
moment.
One of behavioural characteristics of Cane Corso’s males, which
wider public treat too depreciatingly, is that the males strive to
nose all unusual objects that are somehow different form the rest
but also to mark the objects awaking the dog’s interest owing to
their exterior or smell.
Nevertheless, the habit of Cane Corso’s dogs as well as any other
dog breeds to lift the leg everywhere may be prevented if the dog
is educated properly.
Majority
of the Cane Corso’s owners (both males and females) are
content with their pets. They think, that correct education but
not the sex of the dog is of paramount importance for good
adaptation in the family.
But in general, the owners of both males and females are often
afraid for possible conflicts to start between their pets, and the
conflicts usually happen when airing the dogs and meeting
homosexual dogs. However, similar intransigence between homosexual
dogs is not so much that their inborn feature but the result of an
improper education.
