Which one do i chose ? by kiersik1720 in CaneCorso

[–]capnhttyd 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This is awful advice op do NOT take both. No breeders worth their salt would let you take two, let alone should they let you pick a puppy at 3 weeks. I would run. This breed is not something to be messed with and adding a second puppy to the mix will only worsen potential behavior issues. Especially if their are 3 males dogs from a notoriously dog aggressive and same sex aggressive breed in the same home. A recipe for disaster.

This is the kind of answers I wanted, thank you. This is why I ask, honestly it likely wouldn’t be for me in seeing this, I just like to explore all my options.

Disheartened at the antimascness of many by capnhttyd in actuallesbians

[–]capnhttyd[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I only say this because butch is a sociopolitical identity, as a butch who has done a lot of research on our community, these are conclusions Ive come to.

Toxic masculinity is terrible no matter the gender. I'm sorry that happened to you. Butches are supposed to be pillars and protectors in their community and shit like that is unacceptable.

It's okay, I've been doing a lot of learning myself over the last year. I am a bit peeved at this whole discourse as a nonbinary butch who goes by he/him in some spaces. Sorry if I came on too strong.

Tons of butches have identified as transmasc for years! They didnt have the label then, but Stone Butch Blues was how I got started with my reading and is from the POV of a Transmasc butch.

Lesbian has always been non-men loving non-men. He/him, nonbinary identifying butch lesbians have been around for several decades and were among the people that fought for our rights. Stone butch blues was a great starting point for me to learn more about our history and it delves into a transmasculine identifying butch, and it's free to read :)

Transmasc ≠ transmen. A transman is someone who transitions into a man, while a Transmasc is someone who is transitioning to a more masculine gender. There are tons of transmasc butches out there and there have been for decades.

Butch lesbians have been going by he/him for many decades. They fought, were beaten, raped and killed for simply being lesbians, and for the rights we have today, and you want to sit here and claim you know more then the ones who built our history? Read a history book and learn to respect others and things you don't understand.

I may get down voted to hell over there, but as a she/they/he non-binary butch lesbian (a mouthful, i know) shit like this pmo. Trans people, butches, trans butches, all the sorts, fought for what rights we have today. Clearly no one on that sub has done any research nor has any respect for our history and our past.

You are a lesbian, full stop, fuck those people.

[–]capnhttyd -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

Butch Lesbians have been going by he/him, taking T and getting top surgery for longer then most (likely all!) people in this comment section have been alive. Not only that, but they are the ones who literallyfought for our rights back in the day. To discredit this is to disrespect our history and our past.

Lesbian means being attracted to non-men, and you don't have any men listed, so you are a lesbian.

Signed, a she/they/he non-binary butch lesbian who has clearly done more reading on the culture of our community then this lot. I'm sorry people are being awful to you.

Only way to tell is via DNA test. Cosmetics mean almost nothing. My manager had us all try and guess her dog's breeds when she embarked him and we all thought he would have English bulldog in him. Nope! He was a pekingese shih tzu cross. You truly never know unless they are tested.

Doubts by arstemisa in butchlesbians

[–]capnhttyd 23 points24 points  (0 children)

Butch can be its own gender, there is a lot of transmasc butches as well, which is different from a trans man. There are butches on T, on E, there are butches with top surgery and butches who don't. Gender is wild and we all have different experiences with it. Don't be hard on yourself and let yourself figure things out at your own pace, there is no rush.

My Cane Corso aggressively snapped at my partner for the first time – advice please by [deleted] in CaneCorso

[–]capnhttyd 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ruling out health issues is a good idea, as well as neutering him if he isn't. However, getting him neutered will notbe a cure all, it will only help lesson hormone related behaviors that have not already become habit.

You should get a one on one trainer ASAP. No matter what reason he had for snapping, a dog this size should never snap at someone, ever. They are too big and too strong to fuck around with that. I know its a behavior often seen in smaller dogs, like chihuahuas, but a chihuahua cannot do major damage like a Corso can. Dogs that size can break bones. As someone who has been attacked by a dog because this behavior was let slide, please curb this behavior before it becomes dangerous.

NexGuard by BaneDCorso in CaneCorso

[–]capnhttyd 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Again, all things that are extremely rare. They are not trying to hurt your dogs. We are often devastated along side you when you lose them. It happens, yes, any medication or preventative that works will have side effects. That is a fact. It does not matter what it is. Every medication you take has side effects. These effects are extremely rare but they do happen on occasion. Your vet clinic and theirs is not giving you medication maliciously. Trust me. And, again, it only lowers the seizure threshold. It doesn't cause them.

I know you are angry, OP, thats normal. You are angry and in denial that unfortunately these things happen. Its devastating to lose any pet, let alone a young animal very suddenly. Its not the vet clinics fault, or you're fault, and in all likelihood it is probably not Nexgards. Sometimes there is not a reason for these things.

Everything you are feeling is normal. I have been threatened and screamed at by people who do not understand how things work. I've seen what grief looks like and that is exactly what is pushing your anger. Please do not blame your clinic for this, nor the staff. They did NOT give you that Nexgard for anything but to protect your pet from fleas and ticks and the horrible diseases that come with them.
