When training your Cane Corso, most people focus on the latest and greatest training techniques learned from you tubers and training books. What some of us forget, is once you get to know your dog, you will realize that your dog has a personality and genetic profile unique to him or herself. Once you realize this, training takes on some new challenges.
After a long hiatus, I'm back at it, but for how long?
