The Guide elaborates on the techniques used on the show. The examples given in the ua-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 am so happy I decided to get a Corso. My husband is severely disabled & bedridden. I have severe social anxiety and I have always had a irrational fear of being attacked or robbed when I was out. I was terrified to go out in public. My husband used to train big breeds years back. He also used to work with the pita at the spca to try and get them to be able to be adopted. So my husband had suggested we get a Corso because they’re loveable but also not scared of anything. My husband was able to help me train him the right way and it was a breeze! So easy to train and he’s the best boy for sure. I take him everywhere with me and when we are out, men don’t even look my way unless it’s to comment on how beautiful he is. Seriously the best decision I’ve made, considering I have to do almost everything by myself while I’m out of the house. I have a gun, but I’m a lot less likely to need it with having him as the detergent. He is the sweetest gentle giant with me and all kids. If I’m having an anxiety attack or anything he just comes up to me and just snuggles with me until I feel better. He’s just amazing!
These are some serious health issues. If your fear of men, fear of going outside, and social anxiety are not genetically related, you should get therapy too. Remember that as life goes on and you get older, more trauma and more problems will surface in your life. It's better to not allow new problems to compile with the old and current problems. Either way, I wish you and your husband a healthy recovery, and salute to your Corso for loving you.
This is exactly why I am getting 1 .. after the death of my 2 oldest children. I love animals and I truly feel they help with Trauma, healing ❤️🩹. 🫶🏾
Our girl is 95 lbs at 18 months. Best breed we have ever had. Keeping her leaner to help not develop any hip dysplasia or joint problems (which can be a problem for bigger breeds) and keeping her active . She’s amazing and loving. Loves kids and dogs all sizes. Definitely protective and let’s us know when anyone’s approaching house and it’s a scary bark. Occasionally she has barked at stop lights from the car at people standing on the corner if they have hoodies on or masks. Won’t have another breed in our house. Training SUPER important as they are strong as hell and have high prey drive. Pray for the squirrels and bunnies in our yard! Super smart too
THANK YOU! I thought my pit bull was just being .....a pit bull! He goes in the car with me so much but when we see someone with the mask and hoodie or unfortunately carrying lots of bags (the homeless) he can go crazy! There is also a reaction to people (usually men) who walk NOT NORMALLY....He senses something different about them and doesn't like it.
It`s what you want in a family dog to let you know to something is going on.
you don't really need squirrels
Mcmillian is incredible! We watch his show lucky dog and can't believe what a selfless helping person he is. The book ua-cam.com/users/postUgkxfKlzfzw0sMZ_RgZNzMeOPu6d4b5i5XWl has his training methods from both the show and new tricks i had not heard until i got the book. Simple dog psychology and pointers to make the methods stick. Great insight to the thinking of dogs. There is so much more we know now about our dogs. Fear in training no longer apply. I cannot say enough about this book and it's author.
For those considering one, ill say this
Technically a first dog owner by myself, and I chose the CC, to me owning one of these is like buying my first bike at 1000cc’s its not what it can become its how you take the time and learn with it and control it! It take plenty of time and patience but trust me when i say this the reward is worth it!
Nice perspective
I enjoyed the video on your Cane Corso. I owned a South Africian Boerboel, He was a great dog. 180 pounds and all muscles. I fed him raw. Was a awesome therapy dog for 7 years and a great protector yet OK when I introduced visitors to my home. I miss him dearly and would get another. He lived 10 yrs and 8 months. I love the Cane Corso as well. Once again thank you for the video.
I have yet to get to meet or train with a BoerBoel. It's on my bucket list. It's a lot of dog. Possibly even a step more intense than Cane Corso just due to their size and strength. Thanks for sharing
@@AmericanStandardK9 Boerboel are awesome dogs if trained. There are many looking and breeding for size. I rather have one that does the work intended and not to have a giant size one. If interested I know of a breeder that trains BB for protection for years. I'm in Florida so if there's a way to contact you let me know and I'll share the info to you.
k9training@americanstandardk9.com
I would be interested to look them up. Thank you
@@AmericanStandardK9 email sent brother.
@@AmericanStandardK9 I’m a new sub. Imma get cane corso eventually and definitely a line for tighter lips cause the future miss isn’t going to like dog slobber all over the house,her clothes or car. No sir. But again thank for the educational and informative videos. I really enjoy them a lot. Stay blessed my friend 🙏🏽🙌🏽✊🏽👏🏽😊🇺🇸🤫
the "look" part killed me lol they really do stare into your soul sometimes 😂

My girl Kona is eight years old we absolutely love her. I felt the same way when I met my first male Corso and I used to breed Rottweilers and I’m not easily intimidated. But he had such a strong demeanor very calm but you could tell he could just take you out in a second.♥️ my heart will always be with our Cane Corso
Did you get him as a pup?
Agreed on the "breed standards" Form Follows Function.
Working line over show line all day everyday for me
I have one. I worked at a dog kennel before I was old enough to drive feeding, cleaning all breeds, and training setters and pointers to hunt quail and woodcock. During that time the only dog that ever bit me was was a German Shepherd. I've had dogs all my life and at age 58 my Cane Corso has reached 7 years old. He is the most loving dog I've ever had, so loving in fact that he is a therapy dog for the local nursing home. He loves children and it takes forever for my wife and I to walk down the beach as he wants to greet every child he sees. I trust him much more than a German Shepherd. He has never acted aggressive to a person but I socialized him with long walks in the park as I would ANY dog. Mine does not slobber and is a pure bred from Pennsylvania. If you are scared of dogs then don't get one. You need to be serious about training and socializing as with any dog. I also took him through obedience 1,2, and AKC Good Citizenship. He is everyone's best friend.
You trust him more than any German shepherd because you got bit by said breed once? My aunt has one and he was the sweetest and was absolutely obsessed with me.
Hey Kenneth I live in PA and would love to get a Cane Corso who would you suggest I go through
@@NYC_Goody I trust him more than any German Shepard. As I said above I have always owned dogs, worked at a kennel for a few years as a kid and volunteered at the local humane society in the past where I mostly walked the large untrained dogs as they were harder to handle. If you like a certain breed that's great for you, not everyone likes the same cars either. Every breed has good and bad individuals and when anyone talks about the characteristics of a breed its speaking in generalities. To me a lot of the individual dog's behavior is a reflection of how much time and effort the owner put in.
@@beardedmaestro9689 I drove to Lancaster PA to buy mine from an Amish farmer with the last name of King. When we drove up the parents were off to one side and growled and barked a warning. When the farmer Mr King walked out of the barn both dogs were instantly quiet and watched. Once they realized that he was fine with us being there both dogs started to whine and wanted to be petted. Our pup was in the horse barn and walked out with the farmer. He was calm and friendly. I don't want a dog that would act mean, just let me know someone is there and then be quiet. If you decide to buy one in my opinion you should interact with the parents and see their personality, ask about any genetic issues, accept that you are making a 10 - 12 year commitment, and plan for a lot of personal time to socialize the young dog and attend training classes. The more positive interactions the dog has with strangers as a pup and young dog the easier things will be as they are naturally suspicious of anything different. Take your time and I wish you well.
@@kennethmay9002 Your ending is exactly right and what I was getting at and is a contradiction of how you came off in your previous post which is exactly why I replied to you in the first place. It's not the breed at all it's the owners. It has nothing to do with having a preference for a breed because that isn't what you said.
I always refer to cane corso as the “sport version of a bull mastiff”
More like Neapolitan mastiff
I have a 3 year old French Mastiff. There is little to no sport in this dog. I love her to death.
Love it my bullmastiffs were a slower and heavier version have corsos now and can say your comment sums it up lol

I love my cane’s big floppy ears. They’re so soft and also make people not as afraid of him. He’s just a big lover boy.
This is the 2nd time I've watched this video.
Love the work you do.
Good Lord willing, when I retire and can give the dog the time he/she deserves I'm going to get a large breed dog.
Keep up the good work.
God bless you.
Ive am on my 3rd corso! Best breed in the world
I love them. I don't think they're for most people. What has your experience been with them?
I absolutely love my Corso. I wish I would’ve gotten from a better breeder. But he was in a cage too small for him and he was not socialized. I was not leaving without him! He’s beautiful and so loyal.
If I’m not mistaken and I’ve done a lot of digging on the internet, the Italian standard is 100-130 for males and the height around 27-29 inches. Modern tales and akc standards are based on showmanship. If I’m also not mistaken the akc almost declassified the American modern standard of the cane corso. I’ve had my boy max for 10 years now and he was the runt and he’s a little over 100 pounds, 27 in but he’s strong and as quick as he was at 1 years old. He’s a very firm function dog and he’s pretty amazing. I only hope he outlived his expectations.
These large Corsos are way outside the standard and not true to the original purpose of the dog as a working dog. It's really a shame that people keep promoting these huge dogs.
@@Hundman534by people you mean Americans😂
Yes, I suspect you are absolutely right
We have our first cane now. She is just over 6 months. Amazing pup so far ... very trainable. So calm around other dogs. She's so big I have to remind myself she is just a puppy!
Great bit of information....You have me laughing about the drool. I have 3 Cane Corso's and I love them. They are great with my wife and kids and most of the people that come by to visit. My male is always on watch dog mode. anytime a car parks in front of the house or the UPS guy is delivering a package he lets me know. Amazing dog breed. I've had 2 American Bulldogs at the same time before these 3 and they were much more laid back so getting use to these 3 was a bit of a change but I believe I will get a few more down the road as the ones I have pass on.
My Jack Russells lets me know too✌
His brindle pattern is gorgeous !!
A lot of people are "anti- tail cropping". I know I used to be. But after owning my first cane corso for 8 years now (no tail cropped), I've decided that the breed kinda needs tail cropping. Our baby wags her tail so hard that it hits the edges of counters and doorways to the point where its now permanently injured her tail. And she can't help wagging her tail! 😭 ...so she wags and wags when shes happy, hitting her tail until her blood is on the walls and surfaces. Sometimes she gets infections on her tail and we regularly have to take her to the vet for it. If you are thinking about getting a Cane Corso, I highly suggest tail cropping. It may save your pupper a lot of pain and infections.
Very nicely spelled out. Thank you
I only agree with docking for that reason 😂 mann i hope she doesn’t get injured. When i got her she was too old to dock her tail. I love floopy ears though. Less aggressive looks shes a family dog. Very gentle
Tail *docking
The so called "cruelty" breeders claim - after brainwashing groups of pet lovers - is nothing but an excuse to lower their costs and increase their profits. Tails should be docked at min age which would mean breeders had to pay for as at that age the puppies are not ready for their new home. Same goes for ears, some breeds aren't that easy to sell, and puppies may move to their new home at the age of 3,5 months, some at 5 or even 6. Ears must be cropped at the age of 3 months, give or take and depending the breed. A Jack Russell, bought one nearly four years back, and at the age of 2,5 months, came at our home with full tail. Didn't see the dog before coming at home as I've bought him over the phone and my wife picked it up. I was so mad.....but couldn't do anything about it. Lesson learned, you want something done, do it your self ! As for the cruelty, I prefer to be called cruel but visually enjoy the dog I paid for with a serious amount of cash which I've worked for !!!
Tails massively aid balance
I have a Cane Corso and he’s approaching 12 years old now. It’s been the BEST experience ever, but I don’t think I will get another dog because it’ll just be too sad for me when that time comes for him to leave us 🥺 honestly the best dogs ever when trained properly

It is a hard thing to lose your dog`s believe me i know. I have been brought up having a dogs in my life and home since i was born. Dog`s become part of my family and where treated as such.
@@Billyg215 yes it was very hard. He passed away not too long after I made this comment months ago. He had cancer throughout his body and we would have put him through too much at his age to try & treat it. So we let him go. I cried for weeks. It was so hard, and I don’t think I’ll get another dog
@@Itsmirahh The times that i have said when one of my dogs has passed was " Right that`s it no more dogs " and all of my friends and family have all said " YEAH RIGHT ". With in a few months i had another dog laying next to me sleeping on my couch
I have a cane corso/husky mix and it is a lot of work. He’s got those corso eyes, the attitude and sass of a husky and I’m in the middle of dog training cause he’s reactive to strangers. Even half the breed is not for the faint of heart. I’m in it for the long haul and I am working on making his life easier
Best dog I ever had was my CC. He was a dry mouth, never a drop of drool. Training them is the utmost importance but I highly recommend never protection train them, they are already there and will protect your family. Got mine when we had a 1 1/2 year old and a new born. My 1 1/2 year old could crawl over and take his chew toys away from him and he'd allow it and wait for the child to be done with it. Slept in our room with us except when I traveled. Then he'd sleep at the top of the stairs to protect everyone upstairs at night. Never trained him to do this, it was natural to him. He would not allow any stranger in our house when I was gone and my wife and kids were home alone. If I was home, everyone was welcome but men he didn't know were not allowed to touch him.
I used to be heavily involved w/ the breed when they were still Rare Breed and not AKC. I build the original CCF website.
Freaking Awesome Bro...Really considering one.
I have 3 currently, and as they grew it was clear they were breeding for size 🫣 females are 117 & 120, our male is an xl and he’s 195lbs at 3 years old and he’s absolutely not overweight he’s a lean machine 😂
My boy is a cane corso x dogue de Bordeaux mix and he’s a huge chunk of muscle lol. 175 pounds last vet visit
Unless he's 40+ inches to the shoulder he's overweight. You Americans always find a way to ruin good breeds🤦♂️ an Italian bred corso is 150lbs at most
Can someone clear this up for me real quick? My sister has a Cane Corso male that weighs about 130lbs. But his dad weighed 180 and his mom weighed 160. I’m just confused.
i got one 16 yrs ago , my dog trainer turned me to them before annyone knew who they where. he said u want the best?no body knows about these yet. talking about the corso. he lived 13 years. corso4life.
Your delivery is great buddy, don’t worry about it!
Thanks lol
My heart dog Goodman was a Cane Corso. That "look" was his signature. He wasn't aggressive, but just gave people that look and that was enough.
Man I feel you. I get nothing out of a German Shepard or a malinoise. But the presence of a mastiff/Molossus type breed is majestic. Their look is intimidating and when they freeze and stare it's over. Not everyone can own one. They don't accept an unstable household or people. "Dogs bow down to the Molossus as cats bow down to the Lion" I have a Fila de São Miguel myself. Never want anything else but mastiff type breeds. Life changing animals. Not for everyone. Thanks for sharing and respect for your work.

They seem so regal and yes very intimidating but if raised well they are awesome dogs
I have a 6 month old Corso and he’s about 85##. TBH he is a huggable gentle giant. Even when he takes a treat, he takes it very gently, no nipping whatsoever. He is such a good boy, he will sit in front of a meal and look at me for approval, and only until I approve, he will eat. He does not pull on walks, and definitely will keep an eye on sketchy strangers. I have yet to be challenged for the alpha spot, but I am ready for it! Best dog ever! ❤
Where did u get him from
We have three and a 170lb Rottweiler. Best breed we have ever owned. Smartest dogs can open the doors when they want to come in. Very protective of my 14 yo daughter and wife. I will never own another breed.
Wow I’m seeing a lot of videos on this topic “don’t buy a cane” as someone who owned a cane and a Dane. My biggest take away from owning one is you have to have the room, you have to have the patience and an obvious cliche you have to be the alpha, you have to be stern. These are big dogs trust me a little discipline doesn’t hurt them. We forget before we made them companions they ran in packs.
In the past, the Cane Corso was truly versatile: hunting dog, war dog, fighting dog against bears and cats as well as a guardian who watched over the ancient farms. The Cane Corso was also a Bavarian and shepherd who watched indifferently on grazing horses, bulls, buffaloes, up to the mildest sheep and goats.
They haven't changed at all if thats the case. Mine does well in obedience, basic agility, can swim well, fetch and tracking exercises, basic dog trial exercises and is a great, polite dog to live with. He's 11 month old so still everything is basic but they love variety and learning. Any behaviour problems are down to the owner wanting a pet and not a worker dog.
@@davidfreeman683the more I hear about a cane corse the more it reminds me of my rottweiler. All the advice is generally the same. Rotties are wonderful dogs if worked. Perhaps a cane corso is a dog I’d consider more in the future
Also against cosmetic ear/tail cropping. But the note on the tail being damaged because of slamming against things is a concern.
So handsome!
I love my Corso♥️ definitely a lot of work in the beginning but he is such a friend to all people.
I knew the original breeder that brought the Cane Corso into the US. They are wonderful I have a Presa Canario and he is a bit bigger but very similar in temperament to the corso
Dogs these size can also break their own tails from how hard they will wag them, sometimes cropping tails is for the animals own well being
Thanks for the video. It's been speculated Carne Corso will be taking over as "an image dog" from the Pit Bull: Where I live Pit Bull ownership calls for so many regulations many are looking elsewhere.
Yes makes tons of sense. I think you're right on the money unfortunately. Thanks for watching
The meat corso huh? 😆

I’ve had three canes. All great dogs. My male was 170, not fat but solid. My one female was 85. Both were outside the standard. I have my seventh Neo now. A Cane is a mix with a female Neo. Those instincts and behavior is a Neapolitan mastiff. Exactly
I'm ready for a Cane Corso , I've had German Sheppards and Rottweilers in the past and I'm a huge believer in obedience training on every level . ✌️
advice please, a cane Corso was abandoned up by my home in the mountains. people were of course terrified of her rightly so with the looks and breed. 2 months we spent trying to get an accurate location of her just people saying they seen her. well I got eyes on her and she is starving. I caught her and what an angel! very loving I am taking her recovery very slow on food and water intake as to not make her sick. my daughter and her family have taken her. but we have no clue what her triggers are or what actually led her to be abandoned. we did try to find her owners during our time of trying to catch her. I just wonder if you have advice on what should be done to make sure she is safe with the family so that she can have a forever home and always be safe and loved. right now she is super gentle and loving and loves the kids. she is definitely a women's dog as she takes to women better. the goal is to make sure she is safe with the family for her safety as well as the families. they are 100% devoted to insuring her life with them.
Late here, but there is a breed specific rescue for them, I would reach out to them.
I saw a picture of one on FB and fell in love two years later I have a 1 and 2 year old male and female best decision I ever made. Got a third on the way and I really enjoy them
You mentioned the expressionless look of the Corso, my boy is 15mos old and still stares. When family and friends initially met him, almost all of them commented on his staring.
To this day he does it with me, however I believe I understand why they stare. In testing him by intentionally changing my demeanor from horse play to aggression. He instantly recognizes the change, when he does, that’s when he stares. I believe he’s actually assessing the change and is waiting for me to remain at this level, go to an elevated level, or a return to norm.
They say the Cane Corso is the non-drooling of the mastiffs. Not exactly. Maybe low drooling. All loose lipped dogs drool when: #1 drinking/eating #2 exercize. #3 excitement.
#1 I Train to drink out of the right size bucket. I never let my dogs stare at me when I eat. NEVER. I say "What are you looking at? I don't watch you eat... you don't watch me eat!" (Don't let anyone else watch them eat either. Not even the cat.) They don't even LOOK AT MY FOOD... let alone steal it. (Don't feed them kibble then expect them not to drool over your real food/meat.) NEVER REWARD BEGGING. Give treats when YOU decide. Never when they beg. Anticipationà cause drooling.
#2 Have their towels handy. Train to come and stand to have face dried off. They won't shake slobber all over if mouth/lips are dry. Slobber tickles. (You wipe your mouth or forehead when wet, don't you?)
#3 NEVER Allow excited state. Excitement and Drama comes from people. People think it's cute when their dogs over-react... like when owners come home. ("It means my dog missed me." Dear lord.) That ruins many a guard dog... and Chihuahuas! Encourage cool calm demeanor AT ALL TIMES. Don't leave the house or enter until dogs are calm. Playtime, walks, rides don't need to be Hyper-Time. A dog that gets all excited about every day occurrences is an unbalanced dog. You be The Fonz, let them be Richie Cunningham.
They are natural guards, they don't need to be taught or encouraged. Their size, intimidating expression and "alert barking" will provide sufficient security. The best weapon is the one you never have to use.
You can let your dog be excited at home no problem. It doesn't "ruin" anything.

I have a Corso girl. She is about 100 lbs and 2 years old. About cropping and docking. She has the most silky ears and I would never think about cropping them for my own taste. It was a reason to do it for many years but not now. About her tail. Most beautiful tail in the world. It’s so long that it almost reach the ground. Never any accidents with her tail and it doesn’t hurt at all when she is wagging the tail. If someone think it hurts they should get a Pudel instead of a Corso. Cropping and docking are not allowed in Europe were I live and that is for a reason. They might look more scary with their ears cut but you never lose the guard dog if they still have their ears . It’s a wolf dressed in lamb clothes. And she doesn’t drool at all.
About the tail. Most Corsos are very soft when they wagging their tail and keep it low. A Labrador has much more power when they wagging and they are wagging most of the time. Had labradors myself so I know. Anyway I forgot to thank you for your video and I don’t mean to be impolite, just telling my experience. 😊
Thank you. I can only assume because how big and strong they are that their tail would be the same. I figure they dock them as a standard for a reason. Thanks
American Standard Dog Training Nowadays, more and more people crop dogs’ ears and tails for purely cosmetic purposes. This is quite unnecessary for non-working dogs and is illegal in many places. Cropped and docked Corso get less injuries if they are fighting another dog.
@@joda7771 good on you for excepting the dog in all it’s natural beauty.
NANCY BLUDGEON Thanks! I am so tired of doing cosmetic changes for egoistic taste. Here in Europe a lot of young people change their sex instead of learning to accept themselves. There is no limit anymore. 🙄
I don’t advocate tail docking or ear cropping, however as far as ear cropping goes I can surely say that any dog with long floppy ears, the breed actually benefits from a cropped ear. Reason: they are susceptible to ear infections due to to lack of ear circulation.
As for tail docking, depending on dog use I’m not really sure a fam dog needs this. Had many cane corso and by far the best dog breed ever. Love them
💯 agree dogs wouldn't be born with them if they didn't need them
@@MsDizzygal Kinda like mens foreskin. lol
Floppy ears aren't natural those are man made faults
Yeah yeah, and then a small child in the house gets hit with that fire hose of a tail shut the hell up.

I adopted a 2.6 year old female supposedly Neopolitan Mastiff but after watching alot of posts I am thinking she is actually a Cane Corso. Her exuberance in everything she does as in cuddles or protection is full on. I have had German Shepherds and Rottweilers but this girl is definitely teaching me that I still have a lot more to learn. She is the only dog that I have had to purchase an ecollar and prong collar for and she is my 12th dog. Any tips would be appreciated.
don’t describe them as monsters , describe them as huge guardians 😋
Yes, they are definitely huge guardians! Unfortunately, many less educated owners get them, and then run into trouble as they are often "too much dog" to handle for inexperienced people.
TOTALLY agree with you on your statement only arseholes raise them as monsters.
Italian Corso male 120pds max
American Corso 150pds+ and growing with time
My Italian has the stamina and agility
My American has power and size
American corso!!! go home.There is no such a thing!!! All are Italian. Why Americans want to steel everything?
@@edgarom1606 look up Rottweilers. German vs American. Pitties vs American pitty. America enlarged many breeds past the standards
just had to put my Cane corso service dog down back in Feb. an he was 9 yrs. old. I said id never get another dog but now its ben 8 months my wife went behind my back and got me another Cane Corso from the same breeder. I guess he will be coming home at the end of September now.
My French Mastiff will gladly enter a drool contest with him.
I have 4 CCs even the dry mouth ones drool. If you want to have a really clean house, this is not the breed for you. No matter how often you clean, you'll find goop everywhere. They are incredibly gentle dogs; however, fierce when needed.
Isn’t that the truth. I’m looking forward to a CC, I had a Dane a few years back and he got drool on the floor, walls and ceiling. Definitely not a clean house dog. A lot of constant work on keeping the house clean.
NOT A PIT BULL ON STEROIDS! THE BEST DOG EVER
Thank you! That is the one issue I've been trying to find out with this breed. As much as I love the mastiff breeds, drooling is a big turnoff for me. I'm a clean freak who has to wear my special 'yard' clothing just to play outside with my American bulldog who drools enough on his own
My female is not a drooler. My male (smh) everywhere. Cabinets, tv, doors & walls.
Yes I have a Cane Corso. Best dog we’ve ever had. We also have a Rottweiler and a Newfoundland. But Drago is the best guardian dog we’ve ever had when I am outside he is always knows where I’m at close by. Yes they do take a lot of training and you have to be firm with them. Mine have the long ears in the crop tail I chose not to do the ears. We raise Dobermans for 15 years when I was younger and we always crop the earrings on them but I just wasn’t feeling it. I know when the neighbor shoots target practice over a ways at his property ours is all fenced in he runs if he hears a shooting he goes right to it they are not afraid of anything I have never found anything he’s afraid of except for the slippery wood floors so I had to put carpets down lol. Great breed but no they’re not for everyone. And I love your videos keep up the good work.❤❤
Thanks for sharing!
Just got a brendal cane corso and he’s really cute, gentle, smart, and beyond amazing. I also have a Great Pyrenees and my 12 year old Great Pyrenees is excited to have a buddy.
@Apajdbro he’s actually really good, he is 8 months now and he is just huge, he’s already taller than our Great Pyrenees and he’s not even done growing yet, on top of it he is super smart, he’s very sensitive, he is a great best friend!

It’s a beautiful dog. I owned a dogo Argentino who was considered small at 97 lbs. Intimidating but a gentle giant! Miss him. Passed from cancer. Would’ve loved to get a corso.
Very intelligent, loyal, strongest, bodyguard 24/7...
I often watch your videos, and they're quite interesting. Thxs fir sharing your knowledge and dog breeding experiences.
When he came around, after the sit command, and you touching him....oh boy. Not good at all
Funny how people go on the standards of the akc and other organizations of breeds. yet they don't realize when the these organization the change the breed for looks not for what the breed was meant for. The Cane Corso like the neo comes the dog called the Roman war dog and it was huge and highly unfriendly to strangers who tried to pet it. That made it an awesome dog for war... same the original Corso and neo. The Cane Corso and the neo are cousins. When they decided to make the Corso a show the judges where not able to touch it. So the toned down the temperament and size for the show ring ...
Indeed AKC is stupid they have 2 lines one that has Boxer in them with an ugly underbite and the other this massive sluggish one that has Great Dane.
No wonder no one can pet my puppy
Best dog I ever owned 🔥

Cane Corso have a deadpan intelligent stare that full on shows a seriousness that is undeniable.
I paid for mine today, and she will be ready next month. Thanks for the great video
Me too 🎉
I've got a corso x neo mastiff, and although I'm lucky he's taken more of the corso, the drool is still a problem lol
Drooling will not stop if they active or excited. He don't drool in the house because of no play. He not allowed in any room. No play what so ever. So we can have him in the house but we do use the command clean. To whip him clean. So no excitement when come in or leaving. 146lb.
It's mostly just when food is involved
Holy hell that’s a big dog 😂

With any dog, and especially large powerful dogs, you have to properly train them. If you don't train à corso, you will end up with stress like you never knew before. À corso can drag you around. I love them. I am curious, why do you yank on the leash to get your dog to sit? Isn't he trained? What are protection sports? Why sports?
All the corsos I have met are very gentle and playful. THEY MUST BE SOCIALIZED, AS IN EVERY DAY IN A DOG PARK OR TRAIL. If you don't, you risk aggressive behaviour in odd situations, and you don't ever want à corso to go after anyone.
I do the same type of yank but it's not as much a yank as much a tug to get his attention in order for him to now listen to ms
I’m also curious about that leash yank
Loving the long soliloquies 😂 Haha
I learn so much every-time I watch one of your videos. Keep up the great work!
I wish these videos actually gave us tips and drills/activities for training. That’s why I’m here.
Great job with content… what breeder in GA did you get him from? Do you plan on mating him?

You are the best dog guy on YT buddy!
I am italian and my grandpa has a cane corso, they are a really dominant dogs, my grandpa comes home late just to take care of his cane corso.
My cane corso is mixed with a French mastiff. He has the look of a cane corso, but the chillness and happy go lucky demeanour of a French mastiff. He’s perfect
I have a friend who decided a few years ago to raise 2 Corsos to guard his family. A few days ago his 9 yr old daughter was attacked by the Corsos and killed - very sad.
Not meaning to set off the "pro-dockers"...one would think if dogs didnt need ears or tails - they would have developed, as a natural course, without them. Tails are a communication device to other dogs and ears cover the ear canal from dirt and debris. Lets get real and admit docking was introduced for "dog-fighting." Even the oldest Italian dogs of war, had both tails and ears intact. We now choose it as an option so as not to disturb the coffee table.
(Love your videos guy.)
I miss my lenny. He was the best dog amd friend I ever had. I'm typing thus through tears. Cane Corso is a serious breed. He gave my friend a panic attack to point of tears. This guy was a marine and not timid he was in tears begging me to put my dog in the bedroom. Lenny was only 11 months maybe and not full grown at all. Best dog ever not for passive personality. Definitely needs an A type personality.
Wife just agree to get a cane Corso! And while they are gorgeous and I love them, I don't really know much about them so I am glad you have put videos like this! Thank you!!
There’s a guy who has a Cane Corso dog . He had recently added a puppy . So there’s lots of videos about puppues and training. The oldest is named Brice Wayne. That is the best behaved Cane Corso I’ve ever seen. This guys videos are awesome on how to train and socialize a Cane Corso, and just live with this breed . They do live videos taking Bruce Wayne out in public, to malls, shopping centers,parks etc. Dog is just amazing. And his wife handles the dog too and he emphasizes that this is very important that other family members be able to handle the dog and that they respect them too.
Jason Corey is the name of the UA-cam channel. Or you can search for Bruce Wayne Cane Corso on UA-cam.
I’ve been researching this breed for a while and I really like this guy Jason’s approach. His dog is calm, well behaved, attentive but definitely not aggressive, not timid, curious but not pushy and looks to his owner for instructions when he’s uncertain what he’s supposed to do. .
Good luck!

Love these dogs my dogs 9 months and he’s a big boy alright
Brother I recommend a rag, ice and specific food may help
With the slobber
When I change the water bowl I say I am changeling the viscosity. Lol
Love the intro music and graphics. 😌👍🏽 And I appreciate your long soliloquies and great info. I’m a talker too. ☺️🌹👍🏽 Also, I have really come to really appreciate these dogs. I would prefer the cropped ears and docked tails too.
Great video. My wife and I would love to own a Cane Corso eventually. Currently have a chihuahua x Yorkie and a lurcher, myself having had dogs of my own since I was 14. They aren't a recognised breed here in the UK yet, but there are many for sale.

Lol so I have the smallest type of dog so I'm ready for a mastiff type lol that's funny
As much as I want one, I know shouldn't get one, I just simply couldn't give him/her all the attention they would need. I mean sometimes I can barely give it to my boxer, meaning just taking her for just one walk instead of two, but still I will simply watch in awe from a far at those dogs.
I was put off by your title... "Do NOT buy a Cane Corso".... Mine is absolutely the biggest sweetheart EVER! I think anyone who gets one "should" LEARN very quick on how to confine the dog when necessary. It's a learning curve, but you learn FAST! The pronunciation is correct... Konnae... Not Cane... I love my girl! Pay attention to their physical activity, they are not that athletic long term. Mine overheats VERY easily! Sweats, and exhausts in 15 minutes. Yes they slobber. Mine "gooses" everyone's butt lol. Her eye coordination is 100% on point. And you can see you can throw anything at her from any angle from 25 ft away and she will catch it! Focused! But they are ALL different!!! They each have their own personality. So don't go off of one person's experience. If you like a larger massive breed then this dog is great if you know how to train a dog. ❣️
Like you said, don't go off one person's experience. You have had your singular experience with your one dog. I do this for a living. These dogs in their true form- strong, dominant, protective, massive are WAY TOO MUCH for 99% of owners. Fact- most folks can't even begin to handle their 40lbs labradoodle or their 80lbs German Shepherd. How do we expect them to properly raise and handle a 140lbs+ Cane Corso? Again this is what I do for a living- train dogs and train owners how to train and maintain their dogs, and fix problem dogs. You either did a great job training your dog, or you got a very nice dog with less of the rougher attributes, or yours is possibly blended with boxer and therefore more docile or a combination of all the above. And none of that is a bad thing consider yourself skilled or lucky or both. You have a great dog and you're a great owner. You might both be the 1% who made it work. Awesome. They are amazing animals for what they are but they are too much dog for most folks. I repeat DO NOT BUY A CANE CORSO unless you know what you're doing, you hire a trainer immediately, and you put in the time and work. Even if you do all of the above, don't be surprised if you still have a monstrous 4-legged walking liability on your hands with the capability to seriously harm or kill other dogs and/or humans. They weren't bred for couch cuddling even though they're good at it. Remember what they are.
P.S. mine are "athletic" for well over an hour and don't tire easily and can keep up with or surpass most any breed in stamina and agility despite their size.
Big ups to you my brother you are probably one best trainers out how i know i showed my homies your channel there dogs listen to everything they say now much love continue the good work
The “breed standard” folk like to tell me females 26” up to 120 and males 28” and 150. My female is 26” at 106 and would be considered small but perfect in the standard. My male is 33-34” and 218lbs so he gets a ton of hate.
Where are you guys based out of?
Hi Russell, we're in Fort Lauderdale, Florida.
As a all breed dog lover I’m so against cropping of ears and tails. Cropping is done for one reason and one reason only, it’s to make them look so called tough. No one can convince me that the dog doesn’t feel pain when being cropped and there is no need for it. I asked a owner of a cropped dog once if he would cut his own ears off and he wasn’t too keen on the idea. Trust me this dog would look intimidating with his ears
Normally the breed standard from what I know with weight is around 150 pounds maybe more or less but definitely in the hundreds. I have a cane corso myself he is turning two July 1st 2022 and he is amazing with kids wicked smart trained in Russian and English this was before the whole Russia and Ukrain thing but overall great breed I personally wouldn’t recommend mainly because it’s a lot to handle especially don’t get one if your a first time dog owner so that’s basically it and he is pure bred so he drools ALOT but that’s all I have to say about the breed and very overprotective btw any whom if your reading this enjoy your day!
Jules, thanks for sharing your experience, and good day to you, too! - Mary
Usually the larger ones are bred with Neapolitan mastiffs. That’s why they are larger and have more jowl and a less tight face. I’d take a working old world cane any day over a larger one. The breed standard is actually like 125lbs-130 for males. And like 120 max for females. These dogs are much more athletic and have less health problems like hip and joint issues.
Thank you for pronouncing his breed correctly. It scares me when people own these beautiful dogs and can’t even pronounce the breed right.
It really does not matter
185lbs isn’t a Cane Corso, it’s just a mastiff mixed breed!
My wife got one for mothers day and se the dog is a beautiful dog and well manner.
We had a cane Corso. Such a cool and awesome dog. He was given to us and we had no idea what we were in for. We did our best but even the vet agreed there was something wrong in his brain. He turned on my kids, with out provocation. And I have tiktoks of my daughter doing training with him and he was soooo good. Next day he bit the shit out of her. Three weeks later he bit my son but that was out of a protection instinct because my son was acting up. But both kids had to go to the ER and after the second bite, animal control stepped in and he had to be put down. My husband and I love the breed and maybe someday when the kids are out of the house and we can dedicate the time and work the breed needs. We have a Great Dane now which is a better fit. She doesn’t want to eat everyone who comes to the door.
I think I’m ready for one. Lol the drool part I’ve gotten used to owning a boxer for years
BRONX IS STUNNING!
This dog has some serious balls, literally!
And a fifth leg
"Calm as a cucumber", gotta remember that :-) Just 3 minutes into the video, but had to comment on that. Beautiful dog, stunning color, shiny coat, NICE. But what you say reminds me of seeing my own first live Corso, also very cucumber-like, solid blue, cropped and docked, and I had never considered another dog as intimidating-looking as that one. Not even those 60 kilo Rottweilers that were all around back where I grew up in Germany. There' just SOMEthing about them...
Yep lol. Cool as a cucumber 🥒 is what it's supposed to be but I screw up all kinds of sayings all the time
@@AmericanStandardK9 lol, calm surely works just as well: just imagine a refrigerated cucumber getting all riled up and agitated!
True lol
My boy is from two pure breed parents and is 74 kilos at 12 months old how much do you think he will grow still.. he unfortunately has problems with his elbows and would like to keep the weight of him for his wellbeing.
I would crop the ears to because dogs with flopy ears are more likely to get ear infections but i would keep the tail. I like the tail and i dont see a medical reason to get rid of it
Bronx is beautiful 🤩! Thanks soo much for sharing
Thank you
Great video. Certainly not a breed for first time dog owner or for someone who doesn’t truly understand what it takes to appropriately own and handle a dog of this size and personality.
We agree!
I was given one and she's my first dog personally. she's a good pup! But I would agree, the only reason I accepted her is because my aunt rescues pits. So I have a little experience with big and unsure dogs.
He is gorgeous I love power breeds I currently own a deaf dogo Argentino named Omen and I'm not a fan of cropping but that an each to there own
I have a French mastiff Rottweiler mix and her tail should have been cropped. It is like a weapon. Owning her changed my mind on cropping.
Can you please recommend a breeder for such a cane corso ? Thank you and thanks for all the value you provide.
