- Vito

So! It really happened which (I think) no-one expected :D
I HAVE A MALE DOG!!!

After owning 9 females (and always saying I'll NEVER get a male dog)
it feels like all the knowledge you have of dogs disappears when you get one!
Unbelievable...

Anyway I saw Vito at GB Z-litter day last spring and the former owner also came to the Camp Tarkkis on June 2009.
After the camp Vito stayed with me for 3 weeks learning how to behave properly...
He also had quite a bad panostheitis at that time on his front leg and it had been going on for
couple of months before so something had to bee done to that too.
Food and excercise was changed and he stopped limping 2 days after going back to home.
Next time we met again on GB camp on August 2009. Vito was getting a bit too aggressive towards everyone again
and the former owner decided to sell him. I suggested that I could possibly buy him xO
Decision was quite easy because I knew the dog and it's background and the line he's from...
Still he's really different than his sister!!! But in a good way...

Well, there's no remorse at all, HE'S GREAT!!!
Calm, funny, kind and obedient when you're strict but fair to him...
I changed his obedience commands from Finnish to English immediately and he learned them really quickly!
After 2 times training he knew what "sit", "come" and "down" meant...
And what comes to protection training, he's bitework is awesome and barking aggressive. Very natural to him...

At the moment he's a bit too skinny and lacking on the muscles at 9 months of age but now I've changed the food for him and the excercise is different from the past so we'll see how he turns out. I can only predict that he'll be B.I.G.!
