Casso

[zimbris]

am primit pozele astea cu Casso dimineata.. daca am inteles bine, are deja 42 kg..?
Unde te uitai cand ai facut prima poza?

I got these ones this morning.. did I get it right, his weight is now 42 K's..?
Where were you looking at when taking that first picture?

[Man Stopper]

Ya it was a sunny morning, although a bit of a cold wind,so i thought i'd take some new pics.
Casso is now 42k's and am pleased overall,a pity his ears are not so firm..
The first pic i like because it shows a strong muzzle and under jaw, bit like Bero..
Man gotta get some video happenin

a pity his ears are not so firm..

from which side would you say that comes from..?

Man gotta get some video happenin

[Man Stopper]

Must be the Dam side, as i have heard that a particular well known dog throws weaker set ears.
This dog is there 3 times on Casso Dam side, the positive is that this particular Male has Robby Glockeneck on his maternal side fairly close..
Onyx had differant Dam, his ear set was ideal IMO..

This footage with the APBT is literally the first time they have ever met,and i am pleased with Casso's confidence.

Dani thought you might like the latest YT clip; Classic DDR traits of Casso, in physical looks but not on paper..
In action very good behind gates, tested him today and he went berserk, towards stranger..
Give him a good think about for a few weeks, and then will get some on video..

what type of training do you plan to take him through?

[Man Stopper]

Have done few different tests, tied to a pole with approaching stranger,as the clip on YT..
On leash out of his own territory (neutral ground) in the dark, shows defensive behaviour with overload stress, but still moving forward with high raise tail, and minimal raise of hair..
With wire fence between him and aggitator on (neutral ground) he shows much more confidence and deeper bark, as there is a barrier between him and helper...
In the car he displays very serious approach in defense with deep bark..
At home he is extremely territorial, the least we expect..!
The test's were probaly a bit too much, with plenty of pushing to the maximum..
An accidental kick in the nose, between the fence got him sparked up and thinking. Also the car being hit by aggitator, had him thinking and pause for a second or two, then responding with defense..
I raised him to chase moving objects, and has in born prey and hunt drive..
So focusing now on defenseive work, but not so often..!!

hey hey hey, what did i come across lately...   

[Man Stopper]

Took this footage yesterday and am pleased i captured this moment of them both, which shows they genetically share a 'non agressive' character towards other dogs..
 But rather have a different attitude towards Man, only when provoked ofcourse
Maxx is close to 13 years of age and it shows in the way he moves around, but still very much mentally alert..

[zimbris]

you can tell his (Maxx) age... the way he looks to the sides, his eye sight is likely weakened..

Very true Dani, also there was a bitch on heat near by;good old Maxx still is keen on a mating..One last time perhaps, only if those hips were made of Iron..!
Just uploaded a clip of Casso's litter sibling Asti, tell me what you think of her reaction at 16 months..

[Man Stopper]

Dani what do you think of Asti for a non trained, and non socialised bitch.. I think if shen was raised better she would display way more confidence, she is naturally very defensive and this just recently happened..
