Why Your Cane Corso Won’t Listen to You (And It’s Not What You Think

Recently, I had my Cane Corso Maud at the vet’s office for a routine check-up. The moment we walked in, she stiffened—ears back, eyes darting.

She didn’t growl or bark, but her whole body screamed discomfort. I knelt beside her, gave a soft “It’s okay,” and tried to guide her to sit. She stayed standing, frozen. Not aggressive, just unsure. In that moment, I realized Maud wasn’t ignoring me—she just didn’t fully trust that I had her back in that strange environment.

When your Cane Corso doesn’t feel emotionally secure with you, they won’t lean on your commands—they’ll lean on their fear.

Moments like that don’t get fixed with more obedience drills. They’re fixed by building calm confidence and trust—at home, on walks, in every little moment. That’s why I created a free ebook showing how to build your Cane Corso’s trust using regular, everyday life—not complicated routines or force.

It’s all about steady leadership that your dog can believe in—even at the vet’s office.
