Cane Corso: Every Information About This Breed


The Cane Corso is an old breed of Italian Mastiff that was used as a war dog and for hunting big game such as wild boar. It has been around since Roman times and some people believe it may be one of the oldest breeds in existence.

Cane Corsos make good guard dogs but they also make great companions for people who live in rural areas. They are large dogs that need plenty of space but they are also very loyal to their owners and affectionate with children, strangers and other animals.

Cane Corsos are very intelligent and they respond well to training. They need plenty of exercise because they easily become overweight if they don't get enough activity. These dogs can run for miles on end and then still be ready to play when their owners come home from work, so providing them with long daily walks is a must.

Cane Corsos are different from most dogs because they don't bark very often. They were bred to be guard dogs and part of their job was to scare off intruders without raising an alarm, so they made it a point not to bark at all. They will let you know when they see something suspicious but that is about the only time they will ever make a noise.

Cane Corsos are sometimes known as Italian Mastiffs, but that term is not very accurate because this breed has some differences from other types of mastiffs. The most noticeable difference is their muzzle. Cane Corsos have long muzzles that are more similar to the muzzle on an English Bulldog than they are to the muzzles on most other types of mastiffs.

Cane Corsos are also very muscular dogs that have a lot of strength for their size. They don't look like they weigh as much as they do because their muscles are so pronounced and well-defined, especially in the hindquarters . Their wrinkled skin is another way these dogs look more like bulldogs than they do other types of mastiffs.

This guide will explain the origins of the Cane Corso breed, how you can take proper care of one if you choose to get one as a pet and what criminal uses this dog has been put to in recent years.




Are Cane Corso Good With Kids?


The Cane Corso is a very affectionate dog that enjoys being around people, including children. These dogs have been known to be good playmates for kids and they also take their responsibility as family guards seriously. However, it's always a bad idea to leave any child alone with a dog of any breed, even a Cane Corso because this can cause the animal to become protective of your child and view him or her as its own puppy.

Are Cane Corso Good With Other Pets?

However, these dogs can become aggressive toward other animals if they feel threatened or challenged so you need to be careful about introducing them to other pets.

The idea that any breed of dog is good with kids might surprise you if you've experienced the unpredictable behavior that many breeds are susceptible to. However, there are some breeds that are much better suited for living in a home with children than others. One such breed is the Cane Corso.
