Firstly, this was an unplanned event, not staged or expected.
Secondly neither pup was harmed or injured in any way.
Zero Blood event.
At the same time a potent learning lesson for pup and humans.
Setting: It was cold, fresh snow.... and I brought 2 young female pups outside from Warhammer Perfect Storm/Warhammer Denali litter to romp around and burn off some energy before they went back inside my house.
I wanted them tired as unless they are.... it is impossible to get good pics of them as they are for sale.
I had Mom (Warhammer's Perfect Storm) in an outside enclosure.
I let her out to have some quality time with her last two remaining pups in her litter.
She chose to use the time as a learning experience the exact same way her Mom Americana's Hemi Cuda taught her.
Before I had started the video she had done exactly the same thing to the pink collared pup.
Rolling it and mock biting in the neck and teaching where and how to bite and takedown by the front feet.
I have seen this innumerable times in most all my litters.
She is teaching a valuable lesson, HOW TO SURVIVE.
So video starts and she is doing a training now with the purple collared female of hers.
Only difference is the pink collared female pup having just learned from the mom applies the learning to her sister.
Her sister is not taking it lying down and shows... no exemplifies what a REAL Corso is all about, no quit, and rises to the perceived attack from both Mom who is playing and the other sister who most likely is not.
It gets heated, but as a discerning viewer can see I called mom off several times and calmed things down.
Any Corso worth their salt should have this kind of drive and attitude, at Warhammer Cane Corso I breed for this not train for it.
These dogs are not for everyone, especially the inexperienced owner.
They have huge puppy energy, huge Warrior hearts, tenacity and literally are forces of Nature.
It must also be noted Littermate syndrome is real and Warhammer will never sell a pair of same sex siblings to anyone.
It can be a recipe for disaster.
Why risk it.
If I did not think this video served a huge educational purpose, it would not have been posted.
The purpose?
To show why these dogs aren't for everyone, they demand a strong master or they will own you, to show what lies beneath the "cutesy" puppy "furbaby" facade, in all canines to one degree or another.
To show what I breed for, to bring back what I consider real working Corso's to "Super Size Me Mentality" America!
