How to beat the Capra Demon

All you need to do is go up the stairs to the left when you walk in the room.

Stay up there and pick off the dogs one by one, they are faster than the Capra Demon and will run past him to get to you. You can kill them in one or two hits.

Two hand if necessary and don't stand to close to a wall or your weapon will "clink". If you are having trouble with the weapon clink'ng, then use a stab weapon.

Halberd is my personal preference.

I guess you could use something short like a club if you are doing strength and you have the timing down.

When the dogs are all dead, lead the Capra Demon up the stairs and. Once he gets up there, roll of the side on the left and he hop down after. When he lands, he will be stunned from the shock of the landing. During this stunned phase, smack him around once or twice. Rinse & repeat.
