Here in Boca Raton, last December, my 35 lb. Cocker Spaniel was attacked by a 120 lb. Cane Corso. I was standing right there, and grabbed the Cane Corso by the collar and pounded on its ribs attempting to get it to break off the attack. It didn’t even notice I was there. Fortunately, with the help of neighbors my dog was extracted from the jaws of this vicious animal. $3.5K in vet bills later, my dog is now fully recovered. I am suing the owner (who had 6 citations against the 2 Cane Corso/Italian Mastiffs in her nearby home.) When I collect on the judgment - about 1/3rd will go for a compact sidearm and a concealed carry permit.

The recklessness and indifference of some dog owners is breathtaking. No sense of responsibility whatsoever.

I wasn’t familiar with Cane Corso’s and was trying to imagine the size you spoke of. Looked it up on Wiki and skimmed the profile:

“Because of their need to keep the status quo, a Corso often dislikes new things, animals, and people, so the owner must be careful when introducing the dog to new places and people. “

Wow - 120lb dog breed that dislikes new things, animals and people? Glad YOU and your dog survived that!
