About the Cane Corso
The Cane Corso is a giant dog breed originating in Italy. Adult dogs typically weigh 80 to 120 pounds and live 9 to 12 years. The breed is described as protective, devoted, confident, territorial.
Experienced owners with insurance + landlord clearance and a structured training programme. The breed needs early socialisation. First-time owners, rentals without breed clearance, or households unwilling to provide consistent leadership.
Adult Cane Corsos need about 60 minutes of daily exercise; adolescent dogs typically need 75 minutes. The coat is short-coated with moderate shedding, and brushing every 4 weeks keeps the coat manageable.
