Meet Kody, and "Guess the Breed" in the comments!

Kody was sold as a Cane Corso, but looking at him, he seems more like an American Bulldog, Staffie, maybe even with a bit of XL Bully in him. What do you think? Drop your guesses in the comments below!

Regardless of his breed mix, Kody is an amazing dog, and I fell in love with him during his first session today. He's done absolutely fantastic!

Kody has had a couple of scuffles with other dogs, mainly when he gets frustrated. He tends to pull towards other dogs, and when he doesn’t get there fast enough, he can get hyperactive. This often leads to other dogs telling him off, and then Kody reacts back. He’s also a puller on the lead.

His owner, however, is doing a great job! They've already done some online training, which made today’s session much smoother as Kody is used to training.

We worked on counter-conditioning around other dogs to help Kody stay calm and neutral. He picked this up in no time! Then, we moved on to loose leash walking, using "drunk walking" to get him into heel positions, and teaching him to follow his owner. By the end of the session, Kody was walking beautifully and staying calm around other dogs.

Kody also nailed some lovely loose leash walking without treats or being asked. At just 10 months old, he’s doing perfect!

Can’t wait to see him again for the next session, where we’ll solidify these behaviours.
