Cane Corso Info
HISTORY: The only true COURSING MASTIFF left in the world, Italian Cane Corso were regularly bred and used for centuries to sight hunt: running down, catching, and holding big game, including the large European board, stag, and bear. As a Mastiff they are large, powerful, and very muscular. As a COURSER of large game, and unlike the other large mastiff breeds, Cane Corso are incredibly athletic and may move as well as any dog less than half their size. It is this very ability – their speed and agility combined with power and endurance – for which this breed is noted.
Fairly new to the Western Hemisphere, the first imports arrived in the United States in 1988. Still one of the rarest breeds in the world, they are a sight to see and definitly stand out in a crowd. While built similar to a Rottweiler, the Cane Corso is more bear-faced and a little longer of leg. The Corso has a very short coat, no grooming necessary, and it doesn’t drool as much as other mastiff breeds. If you like Rottweilers but would prefer something more stable/less temperamental. . . something faster and more agile. . If it’s something a little different and much more rare that you’re looking for –
YOU HAVE FOUND IT!
If you like “Rotties, you will LOVE the Cane Corso – the ‘Lamborghini’ of the canine world. Like the exotic auto (also from Italy) this breed is the perfect blend of Brawn, Speed, Intelligence, and Rarity!
Thanks to Randy Todd for his bit of history on our magnificent companions, the Cane Corso.
