How can you make a Cane Corso aggressive?
You can leash it and have a friend pretend to hit you; if it barks, the friend flees in fear and you reward the dog to reinforce the behavior. But as a guard dog it already has strong protective instincts, and making it 'aggressive' is not a good goal—it can become dangerously aggressive. Instead train it to be gentle, stable and obedient, learning when to protect and when to relax.
