Ashton is a huge goofy boy just looking for his perfect forever family to go on adventures with and get all the love and snuggles! Ashton was found abandoned on a rural road near a minor highway with a female mastiff, presumed breeding partner. He was unclaimed at the local shelter for over two months before being scooped up into rescue... we can't believe he never got any attention in the shelter! He arrived in rescue the first week of September.
Ashton is a sweet middle-aged gentleman with plenty of energy, spunkiness and booty wiggles! He is a curious boy and loves to sniff and explore everything on his walks. He enjoys the car, he is up for any kind of rural hike or public event, and loves snuggles on the couch! Ashton is an incredibly balanced boy and is easy-going with whatever his foster family decides to do!
Ashton walks well on leash on the transitional slip leash around his nose. He can pull on leash if he doesn't have a strong handler, so he is looking for a confident adopter that won't let him push them around. Once he realized that he can't push his weight around, he is very attentive and engaged! He currently lives rural and walks on a flexi/martingale, but walks on his slip lead for regular in-town trips.
Ashton arrived at the shelter with another dog that he enjoyed playing with a big bouncy play style. He is currently being fostered with 3 male dogs and does well with them. He has a respectful passive introduction, and walks well with them... even doing some very big zoomies in the field beside his foster home! Ashton mostly ignores other dogs on walks, and hasn't cared about dogs barking at him, or passing through a busy dog festival.
Ashton hasn't been officially tested with cats, however he does have a strong prey drive for our chickens and had a very strong drive to the bunnies at the shelters, and likely will not do well in a home with cats or small animals. He is good at ignoring other dogs on walks and hasn't been too focused on squirrels. Ashton is making progress ignoring the chickens in their run, and can come with his foster mom to let them out to free-range and is ok walking away from them, but does want to run at them if they are free-ranging near the house when he goes for walks.
Ashton can be pushy if he can get away with it, and would do best with a confident adopter familiar with power breeds. While he is good with strangers, he can jump up and push his weight around if he can get away it. With confident people who don't put up with his rambunctious behaviour, Ashton is affectionate, charming, focused and goofy! He loves playing tug and he loves getting treats for doing tricks! He is a smart boy and learning his marker commands quickly. We can't wait to learn more about him!
ASHTON SUMMARY:
6yo (m) Cane Corso
~99lbs
-Good with dogs, passive/neutral
-Untested with cats, likely not good
-Prey drive for chickens
-Untested with kids, likely good*
-Excellent with strangers, loves all people
-Low/medium energy, up for adventures, chills at home
-Good in crate
-Good in car
-Housetrained
-Good food drive, enjoys training
-OK leash skills, walks well on a transitional slip leash, but will pull on a flat collar if he can get away with it
-Lives to sniff! Mostly only pulls on leash to sniff things and pee on things, neutral passing bikes, cars, squirrels and other dogs.
-Good for manipulations, ear cleanings, etc.
-Non-vocal, only barks when he hears the coyotes.
-Very affectionate, loves to weave through legs for bum rubs, likes to lean on his people!
*Ashton tries so hard to be a gentle giant, however he is huge and a bit clumsy, so he may accidentally knock over small kids. He has been known to step on feet, accidentally pinch hands between him and furniture, and lean on his people/bump into tables causing objects to fall. When he came into rescue he would jump up and be grabby about taking treats, but now keeps 4 on the floor and takes treats gently. His new family will need to keep up with these expectations for him to keep being the best version of himself!
Ashton was taken in by our local Animal Services after being found abandoned on a rural road with a female mastiff about the same age. He sat in the shelter without any interest for over 2 months before being pulled into rescue – we’re so happy we could get him into a home environment while he waits for his forever home! Ashton is neutered, up to date on vaccines, microchipped, dewormed and has tested negative for tick/mosquito borne illnesses.
