In this interaction between two males, the mixed breed
and the Cane Corso are engaged in competitive play. The

a jaw punch and, when the mixed breed again has four
paws on the ground, exhibits mounting.
The mixed breed exhibits a defensive threat display
(mouth open with commissures open and flews pulled
back). The two dogs face off, with the Cane Corso
