Hi there, my name is Knight.  I would like to tell you a story about me and how I came to SDR along with a bit about what Im looking for in my new forever home.  

So let’s begin, I was brought in by some members of the public that found me a stray and brought me to SDR. When my carer first saw me get out of the car she could clearly see that I was emaciated and had been mistreated. But no more, since being here at SDR my carer and the rest of the team have been giving me the care and love that I deserve and of course, lots and lots of food and water to help make me fit and healthy again the way I should be. My carer says that I’ve put some weight on but I still have a little more go.  Therefore I’m now ready to find my new forever home. 

Walking & Dogs - My carer says I’m like a bull in a china shop while trying to get me ready for my walkies, however, as soon as my harness is on, I am all ready, I’ve got a lot of energy to get out so I do pull like a train and I do take my carer for a walk.  She does say after about 10 minutes the pulling calms down slightly but I’m a big strong lad.  While out walking I'm not bothered by the traffic. When I do see another dog I do like to try and pull towards the them at times to say hello.  Occassionally when the other dog starts barking at me I do bark back. I have met a few other dogs whilst being here at the centre. I do get on better with the ladies than the male dogs so my carer says that I can have some on lead walking female friends.  Off lead I don’t have any manners but maybe in the future I could live with another female dog as long as I have the right training behind me and learn good manners. 

Food - When it comes to my meal times my carer says its like the hungry hippos games, (but can you blame me for loving my food so much.) When it is feeding time I do get very excited and I do like to jump around. My carer does try and get me to sit & wait for them to place my food bowl down but I cant wait that long I just like to get my head in the bowl straight away or at times I’m scatter fed to try and slow me down. 

Meeting New People & Owners Experience - I can be nervous when it comes to meeting strangers and can be vocal at times, but once I’ve had a few treats and I’ve checked you out then all is okay.  I’m looking for experienced owners who have had cane corso's/ large breed dogs before.  My new owners will need to be able and willing to put in a lot of time, patience & effort when it comes to my training as I am roughly around 2 years old and I do act like a puppy.  I dont know my own strength/size so when it comes to training it will be starting from the very beginning like you would do with an 8 week old puppy. 

Number of visits - I will need an minimum of 3 visits from everyone in the household. 

Can you be my forever home and show me what life should be like?  I also hope you dont mind some big old slobbery kisses now and then.
