The Cane Corso Dog Breed in Brief
 This
robust, muscular working dog is native to Italy, where it
was originally used to hunt game and catch cattle. Possibly the
only "Coursing Mastiff left in the world, the Cane Corso does
not drool - unlike some other Mastiff breeds, and is easy to
house-break. Intelligent and easy to train, this breed gets
along well with other pets and makes and excellent working
(hunting , guard and cattle ) dog and family pet. Cane Corsos
are very gentle and submissive - especially with children. They
stand from 25 to 28 inches at the shoulder and weigh from 92 to
110 pounds (females may be slightly smaller). This breed has a
dense, rough coat that requires minimal grooming. They need
daily exercise, but are also laid-back and enjoy snuggling up on
the couch too! |
