My husband and I made our choice to get our Corso very carefully and it’s the best decision I’ve ever made. He’s my companion and protector. My husband is severely disabled so during the daytime he is an amazing companion for him. My husband is an amazing teacher for me so training has been a breeze. I have such bad anxiety and when he is with me it is gone! I have always worried because my husband being disabled, I have to do everything by myself, I have always been worried about being attacked among other things and now it’s the farthest worry from my mind.
That's awesome!! Very encouraging to hear! I've never own any mastiff breed before but I have had many dogs mostly herding/working breeds different kinds of dogs. But I do have a question are corso good around small pets like cats and toy breed? I've watched alot of videos but I that subject doesn't say really would u happen to know?
PLEASE do more reviews of breeds using this format. You could even condense it down if you don’t have the breed on site. This was extremely helpful especially with the scoring system.
He just seems like he’s trying to gatekeep
I lost my 9 year old CC to cancer yesterday- she was the best companion I’ve ever had. You couldn’t found a sweeter girl- but she’d have protected me from anyone or anything. Once I had a friend over who jokingly flexed at her while faking as if he was going to come at me- from being totally at ease she lunged at him. He thought he was being clever trying to provoke her but he certainly never tested her again…All it took was an instant- she was always on guard and ready to defend me.
I’d grown up with English Mastiffs but wanted a breed that could handle a more active lifestyle- and she was the perfect dog for me- but it breaks my heart to see people get them and then abandon them when they realize they’re not up to owning such a demanding breed- they are such sensitive and emotional dogs- it’s not fair to get one unless you can provide for their specific needs and commit to their wellbeing for the duration. They deserve the same care and devotion that they give to their families in return.
Great info and so sorry for your loss 🙏🏾❤️
😢 ur story inspires me
My wife runs a daycare and we have an almost 2-year-old cane corso. He has been socialized around children, as well as plenty of socialization at a young age, going to Home Depot, coastal, etc. His protective nature definitely does come out when and unknown person enters our home. We have a strict rule that people must use the doorbell and have one of us come to the door to introduce him to people he has not met yet. He is amazing around strangers when out and about. But he is definitely very protective of his home. Socialization at a young age is a must, just as stated in the video.
This is great info! I run a home daycare as well and looking to a corso
@@ZoePhillips-tk3qvmake sure you find a breeder that breeds for temperament
my corso used to have a "place" (his bed) so when someone wrang the doorbell and he started going nuts we would say junior PLACE and immediately he would go to his bed and stay there until we "break"ed him. it worked really well. they're extremely smart dogs but obviously need alot of training! maybe not obviously to non giant breed owners
Beautiful pain in the ass is what it sounds like. And major liability.
@@jeffreylangan344lol
This is NOT the dog for anyone who is too busy to put many hours everyday into guided behavioral training, socialization and outdoor exercise. If you cannot financially afford training, veterinary care, proper leashes and kennel equipment and quality food please save yourself and the animal a very bad experience. Save your money. do your research, contact this trainer and do not make an impulsive purchase from a breeder that is not trainer recommended.
1) you don't need expert trainers, there is plenty of video like this online
2) it's the owners job to keep the consistency
3) these dogs are healthy, vet care shouldn't be an issue
@@jdrankwalter I see you didn't listen closely to this video. I agree you don't need to send your dog off to an expert boarding trainer but if a person is inexperienced with this and other large breed guard dogs, in my opinion they must have the time and money to attend regular weekly training from the time the pup is weaned for the best result. You are wishful thinking and shortsighted if you think your dog will always remain healthy. Every dog can face the need for emergency veterinary care and surgery, especially later in life. They have a mass body weight equal to humans. Do you have a large sum of money safely set away to care for your animal in an emergency? This is what I am saying in my original comment. Irresponsible and inexperienced people think they can satisfy their wants and have ego gratification buying dogs like this that they see on the Internet. The animal suffers it's lifetime in less than ideal conditions and is often euthanized because the owners lack the responsibility, financial means and time it takes to raise these specialized dogs. That may not be you but you better have vet insurance or a large fund on hand to take care of your animal.
I think this guy is the only one who is deserving of training cane corso
If you can’t train a dog on your own then you shouldn’t own a Cane Corso, period. No need for expert trainers if you know how to handle one.
I got 4 an I love them they can be hard headed at times but love them
I've never read a book so fast! th-cam.com/users/postUgkx1_veP7CApJK_GWy_TczaMciuG64PqJeU Learning about his dogs and experiences was just the icing on the cake - bed this book through and through. We're working with our new pup and Brandon's advise was just what I needed. Wish he'd just come and train for me haha but it's good for us and happy to have this new set of tools to use on our pup.
I love dogs, and think CC is an amazing breed, but I will admire these great doggos from afar. I know I don’t have the resources a breed like this deserves to live a happy, healthy, and safe life. Kudos to all the CC owners who take up the challenge of raising these great dogs right.
What’s CC
@@Drejac1 Cane Corso. Literally in the title of the video. Kudos on your reading comprehension skills.
I rescued 2 males and they are beautiful beasts the most well behaved boys you will ever meet. My 9 yr old was abused and does have a fear of some males but has come a long way we got him at age 5 my youngest is 5 got him at age 18 mos They needed love and respect and some socializing. We live on 80 acres and they are in heaven. I wouldn’t have another breed. I have pulled my boys from attacking a bobcat they listen to their mama hands down I rule! They will take a bullet for me no doubt in my mind. When their is a threat one stays at my side at all times and one goes to the threat. It is amazing how they communicate. I love them. They are my boys. ❤❤❤
Outstanding video. Honest, to the point and no soft nonsense. Good man!
Best breed ever for an experienced and strong owner. I appreciate you making clear, the CC is not for the faint-hearted nor ignorant. Owning these dogs is a lifestyle. They are amazing. In the wrong hands, they are a nightmare. I wish they weren’t getting so popular bc we are seeing a lot of unstable dogs being irresponsibly bred.
I love the Cane Corso! I had a 10 year old female I just lost to bone cancer 3 days ago. She was my best friend and service dog. We went everywhere together. And everyone that came across her loved her even at the VA. They are very smart, loyal, loving and protective. Before her cancer, Mya weighed 135lbs and strong as an ox. Socializing this breed is a must. Correct training and behavioral training is a must. This breed is not for the lazy. I miss her dearly and I will continue to own this breed and use them as my service dogs.
Condolences. It takes time:)
Sorry about your dog passing away
My question is I was going to use my CC as support dog, but thought he might be too big for a support dog.
Apparently now
My condolences. I lost my American bulldog to cancer. He was only 6 yrs old. It just rips your heart out.
I love them too❤
My 3yo CC Jasper is my service dog. His littermate sister is one, too.
So sorry to hear about your girl…. I had to put my last SD- a boxer/hound mix down almost 2ya and I still miss him.
CCs w the proper training, leadership, consistent boundaries, taking them everywhere socialization, that ours both had?
Stellar dogs.
Not a dog to crate for numerous hours a day while you’re at work.
Never.
Jas is 150# and I’m
Our son had a Corso and he was absolutely the most adorable and laid back soul. Loved every one especially kids. We miss him every day.
Well said. We are 2 cane corso brothers living together. We put videos up of daily life of working cane corso. These are definitely not dogs for everyone. You need to be absolutely ready. However they are the best companions and so friendly and loving.
Dogs to do next;
- Akitas
- Great Danes
- Alaskan Malamutes
I just lucked into your site and boy am I glad. I am so impressed that you work with small dogs too. I have a 16 pound Yorkie that needs to learn to go for a walk without having to investigate every blade of grass in the neighborhood. Thanks again!
The Guide elaborates on the techniques used on the show. The examples given in the th-cam.com/users/postUgkxECnmSvBSv_NGWx4_ChD73pF3NYZwI2F3 are helpful and some of the techniques suggested very useful. One such technique/tool suggested was the lure stick to encourage a small dog to keep up with the heel command. I have a small dog who lags behind smelling any and everything and find it hard to keep bending over while walking to his level. The lure stick is great also for another dogs focus and sprinting at anything that catches her eye. The stories about different dogs, their different temperaments, have been helpful, especially Lulu's: After reading about Lulu's challenges I felt relief concerning one of my rescues that I have had for 10 years. Over many years I have checked out many training books from the library, watched different shows, DVDS, bought training books, taken lessons and this book is the best by far! Kindness, patience and perseverance works.
I absolutely love my rescue cane corso, but I am also very grateful that you are so honest about the limitations that this breed has. Ours came to us at 9 months with severe behavior problems, and at that point, even advanced training can only take you so far. He's such a giant couch potato and great with my son. But God help anyone who tries to come into the house unannounced.
We are in a war so hold on to that dog. You might need him!
No one is in a war
Apparently we need to bring back the pledge of allegiance in the US cause this type of division is crazy... Just a reminder "one nation under god indivisible with liberty and justice for all"@@leejennifercorlewayres9193
This is the BEST profile review I have seen so far for this breed. Excellent knowledge and mastery of subject matter. I will get one for it’s my best breed. Thank u.
Hey Garrett! Amazing video. Very concise and informative. Looking forward to more videos in this format
You had me at the breed naming thing "I dont give a F***" Love your unfiltered pure honesty in your videos.
We had a Boerboel in our family for 10 years. Such a perfect gentleman. We've been blessed with all outstanding dogs over the years. I have been following the Cane for about 20 years. I'm going back and forth between another Boerboel or the Cane.
Debating getting a second cane Corso or a Boerboel myself.
Go for the boerbel. I highly recommend blue collar boerbels. She's a responsible small breeder that does genetic testing BEFORE pairing dogs. There for you after the sale for the life of your dog.
@@tracyjohnson5023 would most likely be getting it from a Canadian breeder, the one I was looking at in on the Board of the North American Boerboel Association
I just absolutely love the no BS when you talk about dog breeds
Wonderful review. As pet owner that has owned, large, exotic animals, it's great to see this info for potential new owners. Some pets and animals need very specific training, equipment, and environments to thrive in.
My Cane Corso Layla is a maniac lol. She's still a pup but about 80lbs and she gets the zoomies about 4 times a day. Shes been a bit tough to train, and she's a little too smart for her own good (she figured out how to unlock and open the door) but is a sweetheart. Absolutely loves the neighbors. But you wouldn't want to come over uninvited.
Also. She loved to bury her bones. We get beef bones with marrow and she buried them in the couch cushions. So keep that in mind. Great dogs though. Incredibly affectionate. I didn't crop her ears although it's recommended.
Zoomies??
My friend and neighbor passed away two days ago in an accident. I'm left with his dogs. Including a young German shepherd male and a little bit older female Cane Corso. They are a lot on me. I love them both. She is a little bit easier on me than young shepherd. It hasn't been very long , but I already subscribed. I enjoyed your video on getting a dog that pulls to stop ...being it also was a shepherd . I only found out today she was a CC . So this video really helps me understand. She's very sweet , and seems like she could easily take an arm off too. I feel so sorry for her loss of my friend she misses him and Cried last night . I had to keep a hand on her all threw the night. She's 165lbs and well behaved so far. Thank you so much for the great videos and the training you've made available. It's all I've got, and I'm counting on it!
True Friend!!!!
165lbs is WAY outside breed standards for a female corso, are you sure it isn't some kind of english/neopolitan mastiff cross?
@kernoleary1394 Well I haven't got her weighed . That's what he said she weighed . She dwarves the Shepherd though. Just makes him look small.
@user-pn2wz2ce5l big ups on you for adopting your friends dogs 🙏🏼. corsos are amazing animals.
Man. I absolutely love this dog. This is my favorite dog breed. My wife's cousin has 2 and they are so good. Waiting till my girls are a bit older to have one but once I do I 💯 % will send them to get trained with you guys . Love your videos.
Excellent Video Garett love the format and scoring you used for this review! I love Cane Corso's! As a WL GSD owner I Would love to see a video on Working Line German Shepherd's in this format :)
BEST VIDEO OUT THERE ABOUT CANE CORSO!!! THANKS FOR SHARING WITH US :) KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK !!!
i rescued a corso last year. she is now one of may favorites. i think i will always have a corso now
This is one of the first CC videos that is absolutely correct. I have had my CC for almost 3yrs now and she is my best friend. The information in this video matches exactly to my experience with the breed. Me personal I will always have a CC for the rest of my life. Thank you for making this video!
How is your Cane Corso with other dogs?
@@rjcupidIt was just Neb and I for the first 10m of her life but I socialized her with farm animals and other dogs after she got all her shots. Moving into the new house also came with with 2 other days that she knew. Sadly one passed away at the age of 16. Now we added a Eng Bulldog and she was fine welcoming him into her home. I do think it was all the socializing though. I just knew that I had to take socializing her very serious because this breed is extremely powerful.
@@Hib.wow24 Thanks for the in-depth answer. I’m sorry for the loss of your dog after 16 years. I know what that is like as I had an amazing toy poodle for 18 years. Nebula seems like a great dog and you did a good job socializing her. I met my first Cane Corso in the early 2000’s and I have been a fan ever since. I used to also read about them in dog magazines. They seem like a great breed for an experienced owner. Do you live on a farm? (You mentioned farm animals)
Excellent advice and excellent video!!! Not only applicable to the beautiful Cane Corso, one of my very favorites, but applicable to many others guard dogs like German Shepherds and all other Dogos, Mastiffs, Molosser or whatever you want to call all this working dogs and guard dogs.
People don’t understand these breeds and not lapdogs, these breeds need to be socialize at a early age constantly, so when the are grown they don’t see threats everywhere, in every person, any other animals, etc., when they’re propriety they learn to distinguish who is who, what is what. Besides, their owners needs to provide them with exercise, fiscally and mentally.
Thank you sir!
I work at a boarding/training place. We have three cane corsos that come in and my god I love them. They are a truly a special breed and they are amazing to handle, work with, and train.
Acompanho o seu canal aqui do Brasil. Obrigado pelas informações relevantes e sucesso para você. Adoro a raça Cane Corso e pretendo ter um algum dia. Aqui no Brasil existem poucos criadores e só agora as pessoas estão dando importância para o treinamento. Mas estamos melhorando graças a pessoas como você, meu amigo. Obrigado mais uma vez.
Great info on this channel as usual! Even with proper training and socialization most Cane Corso aren’t exactly social butterflies..it’s not what they were bred to do. They require a disciplined owner who’s 100 percent committed. They are large dominant and will challenge you! My male just turned two years old and has just now begun to settle. He’s undoubtably, the smartest and most affectionate dog I’ve ever had. He also has matured slower and required the most time and energy of any dog I’ve ever owned. If considering this breed make sure you understand what you’re getting into.
My cane corso is 3-4 years old and a rescue dog from shelter. He is so cute. Sometimes he freezes on the street when he gets tired or something. And when I go out from our home he is afraid of being left, he pees sometimes. AT street he walks and runs normal. Seldomly barks.
You're such a cool guy. I don't think a could ever own Cane Corso myself but they are easily one of my favourite dogs. So majestic and beautiful.
Great video. My wife and I have a 13 month female. We acquired her at 5 months old and soon realized no training or socialization was done. It's been hard work for the last 8 months and we still have a long way to go. Great video! We also have a 125 lb Akita. Would love you to do a breed profile on that as well.
Is this giveaway real?
@kmorley12231 no, it's fake
@@onion8216 thought so
Same deal with ours, She was crate trained and that's about it. We've spent numerous hours in Lowes and TSC and having company over to get her used to people.
holy moly bro , I have the same two dogs . Both females . My corso is 3 years old and akita is 12 weeks old and having both of them I can easily say there is no one like no one that can match Cane Corso mindset ( this dog is literally human at this point ) she cuddles like a human too . I love both so much and she is already teaching akita on how to behave and she plays tug of war with her .
I’ve had loads of dogs and my CC is my favorite. He’s so easy to train, well-behaved, always guarding (which I love), cuddly, scares the shit out of people, goes from 10 to 1 in an instant on command, and is a beast.
th-cam.com/video/JA4lX97Zwcw/w-d-xo.html
@@bears2604 Thanks for sharing. Not sure if you’re trying to make a point with “the most dangerous dogs” video. Yeah, you need to know what you’re doing with these types of dogs, no doubt, and owners who take on these dogs often don’t. That’s why there are so many in shelters. Personally, I find it a really easy dog to own because I enjoy training, I’m very interested in dog psychology and behavior, and I’m no expert but I know what I’m doing.
@@bears2604 That clip at 2:50 about the CC ripping apart people is a bit misleading. If you have 200 CC’s in one place, you’re not breeding properly snd breeding for temperament. No doubt. He’s absolute right about the dogs having very strong wills and weak owners being a problem. Anyone who says dogs like Mastiff’s don’t have any sense of dominance or a hierarchy doesn’t know what they’re talking about, I’m looking at you positive-only people.
yeah my 3-4 year old rescue cane corso dog sometimes freezes on the street, requires waiting or when my patience is finished some hard pulls from the neck with leash. He is also always scared of being left by the owner. He had trauma in the past. He plays with my son and me. He likes having kids pet him. I don't know about training, I just took him in the family and loved him from the first day with hugs, kissess . He is sweet. When he sees cats, he transforms into batman :)) but I do not allow him to touch cats. He is mostly vegetarian dog, eats dry dog food. 400 gr a day. He understands sit and give paw. He likes to get him petted and cuddled :))) He likes attention. He sometimes barks in the streets to little dogs. He has a normal dog sound, a bit alto side.
Very informative video. I really like the way you explain the characteristics and pros & cons of a dog breed. It would be great if you make a similar video on Rottweilers and Boerboels. Thanks.
Please keep the education coming. I have two young kids and learning about breeds to add to our family in the next couple years. Thank you!
Golden Retriever
Here is some education on this breed particularly 250-315 th-cam.com/video/JA4lX97Zwcw/w-d-xo.html
Ours looked very much like Mr. Bronx (identical coat), but he was only about 125lbs. He was such an amazing dog. He was part of our family for 12 years until his health finally gave in. He was such a kind loving dog. Miss him so much. RIP Biggie
Ours has been a prefect fit for our family, she has acres to run and we are a low traffic household and shes been amazing with the kids.
I have a rescue Pitbull that has the same type of attitude. We have taken great care to make sure she never gets out or gets around other people. She was a dog that was tied up and made to fight other dogs until the rescue department found her when we got her she was way underweight one ear torn off and a broken hip. We have had her 10 years now she still doesn't trust anybody and thankfully we don't get a lot of visitors just me my wife and my son. My son doesn't live with me but she knows him from when he was younger and loves him but I guarantee she would destroy anything that Got in the way of anyone hurting us. We built a special privacy fence so nobody could even stick their hands through to get to her.
My CC comes to work with me at least twice a week , part of his socialization. I also take him on playdates so he can play with the big boys. Loki just turned 7 months. Still working on other issues, crate training and separation anxiety are my two big areas. My trainer has given me lots of tools and we take it one day at a time:)
I used to take my Corso Zeus to the parks to play with other dogs until he turned one year old. Then he became very protective of me. Now we go to Home Depot , etc , hiking , etc. He is the best dog we ever had. Good luck with your pup. Enjoy him.
I crate trained my boy for only 4 months after I got him. He whined every time and never got used to it. I slowly started to leave him at home by himself for short periods. He is now almost two and I can leave him for hours with the back slider door open and he does great. He only got into the garbage once.
@@cynthiaweber1646 do you allow people at home Depot pet your dog?
Thanks for being honest and warning about things you have to do and have to know BEFORE getting such dog 👍
Only dreaming about how beautiful and strong they are does not help anybody.
You have to know what you are dealing with and - more important - if you are ready for that.
Amazing video as usual! Thanks Garrett
Getting the right breed for your lifestyle and character is key. I got a British bulldog when I was an overactive 22 year old. Used to take him walkies on table mountain, til he grew too heavy. His legs were too short. could not cope with the heat. Front paws would bleed cause they took most of the weight. I left him in my patents care when I moved away. I loved that dog, but he was a much better fit for my folks:)
In South Africa?
Thank you for posting this video!!!!
Also what I try to emphasize with “new” handlers is, there is also a huge difference between a dog who has been trained to bite and one that has not. I’m a Mal guy, I do ring sports as well as protection dogs. I’ve caught a few Corso’s and man they have immense power compared to Mals and GSD’s. They also have super high civil drive, that wasn’t expected by me the first time I met one. Great video man🤙🤙
I do not recommend removal of the front dewclaws; dogs without dewclaws are prone to carpal arthritis - "At high speeds (especially when turning) or on slippery surfaces, these dewclaws provide extra traction and help stabilize the carpal (wrist) joint. Some dogs also use their dewclaws to help them climb trees or hold objects to better chew on them."
The day I've decided to buy one was the day I gave up my private life.
She's with me at work all day until I'm home back to the family.
Just found your page not too long ago, I myself own a Cane corso named Achilles. Great beautiful dogs and very loyal. Love the videos man 👍🏽
Aren’t all dogs loyal though?
@@ryanmalone2681 No. I've been around dogs that the best trainers would not risk their lives with. Training, genetics and breed traits matter.
@@mary-ue4ir Yes training, breed traits, and genetics matter, of course, but I’ve never known a dog that wasn’t loyal.
@@ryanmalone2681 Ryan, from your other comments I know you've raised many special dogs successfully and I respect your skill and good heart. My work on farms raising and caring for dogs goes back more than 35 years, and in the 1990's I saw a lot of large Eastern European breeds, working shepherd, guard and South Russian army breeds brought into the US and heavily bred in horrible mill conditions on the East Coast for fast money. Thousands of dollars per dog untrained. I saw the animal casualties of that practice. I saw dogs so vicious it was barely possible to to crack a concrete kennel door to feed them. Loyalty wasn't an even an issue, they were so abused, trust was mostly impossible. I hope you never have to know a dog like this, but I assure you sadly they exist. Perhaps in a rare instance over time a person like you could work with a dog like this, but I would say you could never fully trust them not to be triggered by some factor unknown to you.
@@mary-ue4ir That’s a fair point. The breeders for the US were so bad I had to go to Europe to find a good breeder who was breeding properly.
My sweet Daisy is tan, 6 yrs old and not a pound overweight at 145 lbs. We got her at 7 or 8 weeks old and have 4.5 acre yard. She is a delight, everyone loves her except the Amazon or UPS drivers and people walking down the state highway in front of our property. She puts on a show but wags her tail. They would have to be a threat to get bit. When we renewed our homeowners policy several options would not insure us with her as a pet. Best dog ever
Great informative video
When we take our Cane Corso female i was little nervous will we handle the breed properly, but we were so lucky. The dog is extremely calm, she didn't care about cats and dogs. She sniff them and ignore them. She didn't pulled the leash even once, no matter what. Its enough just to say a command and she listens with no problem. And we didn't even put much effort in training. She is great with humans and kids, no problems at all! Amazing dogs❤ We were lucky because she is just perfect, her character is calm, lazy, very trustworthy
I'd been hyper focused on getting a Cane Corso. Thanks to this video though, it helped me realize that at this point in time it isn't the best fit for my family. Given the space and our lifestyle and my two rambunctious boys. Any dog will require a lot of training, but it helped me realize quite a bit of areas that would cause more potential issues. Thank you for this video, it was very informative and exactly what we need for many other breeds.
I think it goes from dog to dog, our cane corsos are the chillest dogs on earth, theyre incredible with kids theyve never interacted with and honestly theyre so smart is not hard to train, btw my first dog was a mallinois husky mix, theyre a 8 difficulty, cane corso is a 6.5 or something, just be firm and confident and they'll always listen to u and respect u, and when it comes to ur kids as long as they dont beat them or something like any other dog it'll be fine :D
Thanks brother for the video. You are a good dude.
Saw a cane corse today at mechanic. Beautiful dog powerful puppy. For hiking this is what I need to go hiking by myself. I think this dog is too much for a 70 year old woman. I would love to have this dog.
Absolutely my favorite type of puppo! Can not wait to get one!
It's one of my favorite breeds...
My previous dog was a cane Corso... the dog I have now is half cane Corso / half Stafford ...
She is seriously a guard and protection dog that is crazy about children..
(But no stranger can enter my house and outside a stranger cant get near me 😉 !!! )
I agree with you... cane Corso is the best but really needs to be socialized . . .😉👍
How big is she , do u think she faster ,more agile since she mixed with staffy?? Is her prey drive more than a pure breed Corso?? I'm asking cause I have both breeds of dogs
I just had my first Cane Corso. They are very VERY affectionate to owners ! And yes, they are not for begeners
I have a black brindle corso pit bull mix. Rescued from our local shelter. But I just came to say you’ve helped me alot in my training but everything aside your just a cool ass dude man you remind me of guys I use to look up to growing up 👍🏽. Keep on keeping on brother ur a great trainer
I've been waiting for this. Im close to buying a dog and needed this
finally an intelligent unbiased video
Awesome video, it is a must see for anyone contemplating a Cane Corso. I would say that of the many big breeds out there, this one is my favorite. Me, I would love to have one but would be concerned finding sitters or kennels able and willing to watch it when I am away.
Philip thats definitely a real concern with any of the large powerful breeds. After I retired, I've got more work than I can handle walking and house sitting for people with these breeds. I've even boarded a few for people whose dogs I knew very well.
Many trainers also offer short term boarding, so when you find a good trainer, ask. I'd say the same trainer may be able to recommend a dog walker too.
As a longtime rottie and boerbel owner, I can say that home owners insurance policies exclude these breeds from coverage too.
Many HOAs and even towns have either outright breed bans or a list of things you have to do if you own one like fence height.
Thankfully, I have a farm in an unincorporated area so these things don't effect me.
One thing about a socialized dog is that it will drop the protection part once you are out of the picture. Often when you leave a dog in an area that is not its territory they can be very respectful of others, if they are socialized. If not they get aggressive and anxious
This is the breed I have my heart set on.... have done my research and this is the perfect dog... more than a dog, a family member. Thank you for the video ~~~~~ Love from Lakeside ~~~~ Phoebe
Thanks for the video. You are a good dude.
I've been thinking about getting one, and this helped me out a lot.
I was lucky to have a Neo Mastiff, he came to my home and we fell in love with each other. He was my guardian and I was his feeder and care giver. We had 5 wonderful years together. Sadly he got very sick and I had to make a horrible decision to let him go to dog heaven.
We have 2 mixed breed dog, one of them with the personality of a cane corso. She's sweet and protective. when a burgler attempted to enter our house, she almost killed him. Now we are thinking of getting a baby Cane Corso to become part of our family along with our other 2 dogs.
One question I have about the training is, when the dog is trained by a professional trainer, how does it transition from that trainer being master to listening to you give it orders?
So the trainer doesn’t train your dog long term. The dog knows who it’s owners are. The trainer teaches you how to train your dog and then you put the time in for the dog knows who the “boss” is. I posted a couple clips on my page with my Corso
@@BlackKen_M OH ok that males sense. Thanks.
Excellent content! Bravo to your editor as well. Are you going to do this video for the Doberman? (Or have I missed it?)
i have had boxers for over half my life,, just love them.... but i have to say these cane corso's are absolutely stunning!! i'm thinking i might switch over...
I’ve got a cane lab mix that I am crazy about the smartest guy I’ve ever seen I’d love to have one full blooded and he would last me pretty much the rest of my years I’d imagine I’m strong for my age and know how to get along with big dogs. I’m hesitant about getting old though and losing my strength but I’d give anything for a companion like this one he’s amazing.
I have had two female Corsos. One just passed from old age. Her daughter is still with us. We have just loved this breed! Before this we had a Boerboel, and a Bullmastiff. Loved them all. We don’t have children so we can adopt large breed dogs.
I had a gsd the past 9 years recently passed from bloat he was amazing but living in central California it was too hot for him (inside dog but went potty outside and loved being outside) and I'm thinking my next breed will be a corso but I'll be doing a few months of research before I commit their such beautiful and majestic lookin dogs
I have been watching a few other channels, specifically, about Cane Corsos and I have fallen in love with this breed, but yes, they are NOT for everyone. I have a Rottie myself, who is amazing, one of my favorite breeds also. God bless.
I honestly want to consider a CC. I've had two large molosser breeds in the past(AM Bulldog, Neo Mastiff) and I've always considered the CC.
Please do more on Corsica I’m getting another one and your corps is so well behaved
I cant stop staring at the floppy tongue 😂
One of the downsides on the ''upsizing' of breeds (mentioned Cane Corsos in the USA) is the shortening of the expected lifespan. Having witnessed over 25+ years of breeding on giant breeds, the average lifespan on these dogs is significantly reduced in proportion to overall size (i.e. the largest of the particular breed experienced anywhere from 2-5 years shortened lifespans compared to those dogs considered 'normal' in breed size).
I have a 1,000 acre farm. I have 10 CC on my property. They are magical dogs. They have been trained by me as a pack for the last 4 years along with two certified trainers. It’s been a very interesting experience! They are fantastic animals BUT they require a lot of exercise, a raw diet that for my dogs is running to about $10,000 a month, supplements and conditioning products run about $3,000 a month and my pet insurance is about $13,000 annually for my pack. I’m investing almost 180k a year on my pack which doesn’t include trainer fees and other treats! In short, if you a suburban living family and are straddled in debt living pay check to pay check and don’t have a lot of time for your dog but have all the time for BBQ, drinking and being a nosey ass, then please and I mean please don’t buy a CC. It’s a magnificent dog and I feel honoured to have a pack!
Amazing video! Super interesting and informative. Wish to see more videos like this. *p.s do Rottweiler next please*
I would agree with most of what this guy is saying. By my experience with both the Cane Corso and Perro De Pressa Canario it really depends on the training especially in the early age. Cane Corso can be stubborn if it is allowed as I am sure Pressa's can. They will bark if you don't set the tone. They love exercise, socializing is very important for both breeds. Mine know to be nice but ready to protect. My Pressa female once got out from our secured backyard. No problem she sat by the front door and waited to come back in. They will whine like babies for certain reasons mine do because they are emotionally attached to us. I don't train my animal members to be aggressive actually the very opposite so when people visit they know they are to be nice. I am not worried about when their natural instinct need to kick in. I do make it a point that one of the household members are always with my animal members if visitors come over. Walking can be difficult especially when society isn't educated and immediately are judgemental. As they get older you should see a decrease in energy therefore making them easier to walk. Key importance burn their energy they will build muscle, but get exhausted and calm down. I made it a point when my animal members had puppies that I screened the families and they could provide a good home. One training I do is having them learn to walk themselves. (They are not for everyone especially if you don't have time.)
Love your videos. I learn so much. Someday I hope to own a medium sized dog. Not soon because I have a lot to learn. God bless you
Your pronunciation is actually extremely on point " paesa' ". If anyone was interested the plural would be "cani corso" . Great video
Awesome content
Who's zooming who? Great video, keep up the great work!
I love my corso. Thanks for all the info
Thank you for this video, my girl Nyah is the most full on dog I have ever owned. I have never had a dog be my companion like this dog, but you have to be the master.
Lol the little bit about the name and pronunciation was perfect 👌👌👌
cane Corso's are such an awesome and protective also very sweet dogs
You've mentioned you don't give a damn about pronunciation and etymology and you are absolutely right!
But I am Italian, my dog trainer had a Corso, so I am pretty attached to this topic; also name origins are very, very interesting by themselves!
let's start from the pronunciation: pronunciation you use across the video is the correct one in Italian, with Cane literally meaning Dog in English.
'Corso' is the past participle of Run in Italian, but it doesn't make sense with the dog name: in Italian it would sound like "dog that has been run over" which definitely doesn't give justice to the majestic animal.
There are a few and interesting schools of thought for Corso origin; here listed 3 of them:
-from ancient Greek, Kortos meaning Yard, standing for "yard guard dog"
-from ancient Latin, Cohors, meaning Guardian, (and still today, in Vatican city you have the Cohors Elvetica, the Swiss Guards)
-it might be coming from a pre-italian language used during middle ages. Still today in a few southern dialects, "Corso" and derivatives are all meaning Strong, Proud, Noble, Imperious.
Hope to have brought a smile to everyone reading this!
As a Cane Corso owner this was a great video
Love this braed
And the working line german shephard❤
I would love to have Cane Corso. My friend has one, and I love taking her for a walk.
Garrett I've started watching your amazing videos lately. Love you bro. Treat you to a drink one day.
Amazing video! I did extensive research before I bought my Cane Corso and everything you say is very true. But I’m confident and happy w my new best friend!! I’m so proud of him. His father was the #1 CC in the country in 2017 across all platforms. My boy Nico is 134pds at 9 months old!! He’s a beast. I’m scared to ask but in your opinion at 9 months will be 10 months 4/17 what will his adult weight be? An app said 180lbs I almost fell off my seat 😂
How much did your dog cost? Seems like you've got a big one on your hands 😂
Such a beautiful dog. Formidable but beautiful in their majesty.
Hey, i just wanted to know what is your opinion on galgos?
Love your shorts on what you recommend and what you do not! Keep it up!
My CC is 160lbs with no visible body fat, just pure muscle. When he’s running at full speed, he’s like a flying tank. If he was to hit you at that speed, no way you could remain standing and he would break bones. It’s crazy.
How much does yours eat per day
@@_aris_tal Hard to quantify depending on what he’s eating, but he eats the equivalent to 1.5-2 chickens per day, not including snacks.
@@ryanmalone2681 is he obedient mate? I've seen a few other posts from you and you seem to know your stuff. Good work!
