The other night while the wife and I were in bed it was very windy outside. Our Cane Corso Vader was very relaxed and dozing off at the foot of the bed when we heard a bump from downstairs. He jumped up immediately and with me in toe went to inspect. There was nothing out of the ordinary it was just the wind blowing outside. Once we came back into the room he lay down at the end of the bed with his head up staring at the bedroom door. Not satisfied with this vantage point he left the room and went and sat on the landing by the front door and kept watch out the window for almost the entire remainder of the night. He is only nine months old, he is our first Cane Corso and as much as we did know about these dogs it was really something to see how much he wanted to protect us and make sure we were safe. Just thought I would share that with the board as I thought it was a cool story. MM.
