socialization

My wide and I have been looking at Corso's for awhile now and have even narrowed our new pup down to a breeder and a time. I have a few concerns that I would rather have answered from real owners and not other sources. We have a three year old son I am not worried about him and I understand the...

Hi! Just wondering if anybody has taken their Fila Hiking or Camping. Would love to take Augustus one day. He is about six months old right now.

I would like some personal experiences from you fellow Presa owners. I have 2 kids and currently have them feeding Goose and also playing with his food as he is eating along with hand feeding him. We also plan on taking family trips to the pet store to help him being around new people and dogs...

So. I just want to know, what are some of the (sometimes stupid) things people ask/say to you guys or do when you're out and about with your Molossers? With my female, I get "let's put a saddle on that thing!" "Wow, what a handsome boy. How old?" Or "Is that that Kujo dog!?" Or even "Hey...

Hello! Recently found this site and thought I would ask for some advice. A friend of mine has an English Mastiff that is not getting the attention it needs and was wondering if I would be able to take her. She is currently 4 years old and has been around young kids her entire life. I have a 1...

Is not really going the way I've anticipated so far. It starts off playful but once that cat gets pissed Nucky turns into a jerk. He will not back down and I need him to realize the cat is not a toy and you are not dominate over the cat. Of course the only time Nucky acts somewhat nice Capone...

Alright, so last year I got my first ever English Mastiff, Isis, and out of the litter of puppies she was the last. when I went to pick her up from the breeder, he had said the I was the first person she willingly came up to, before she would go and hide from them. Crate training was a breeze...

Leo, my 14 week old CC, has been having some issues in puppy class that I wanted to run by all of you. - His first class he was terrified by all the other dogs and hid behind anything or anyone to get away from all the other dogs. We were recommended to leave him and walk away when he follows...

This is a long post. Bear with me--I want to be sure I do the right thing, because we can't afford another family tragedy like our family experienced four months ago when we lost our 2 year old GSD, Soldier. Soldier bit a 12 year old kid (while on leash), with no warning (and I was always...

My OEM is still intact, and this never seemed to cause problems with other dogs, but lately, it does. When I walk him, whatever neighborhood we're in goes up in flames. I took him to the dog park today, which I've stopped doing because of problems, and the same thing happened with the dogs...

Hey guys, So I'm a new French Mastiff owner, and I was just wondering where are some good places to socialize and build confidence in my 5 month old male Douge de Bourdeaux puppy. He is very timid, and is scared easily, I'm worried that if his confidence isn't built and he doesn't have any...
