  • Don't you have to cut his ears?

  • @iSoaDoO - cutting ears is not allowed in UK and most parts of Europe, severe penalties if you do.

  • @CerberusMolossers And a goo law it is! They are beautiful such as they are!

  • This dog is not bred for agression sodnal. Neither are pits or rots or any other dog that you animal activist say are bred to "be dangerous". I can raise a lab, poodle, or any dog in the world and train him to be an "aggressive dog". Corso's are amazing with children and a great dog to have around kids because they protect them.

  • Fantastic info on the true cane. Thank you from the heart, Cerebrus. It's obvious your advice is borne out of a great love for these historic animals, and an admiration for the real deal's obviously superior instincts. Thanks, bud.

  • my cousin has one he punched my for a joke the the dog thought he wants him to attak me itnearly bit me

  • 1:14 bouncing balls

  • I've raised dogs all my life, all kinds of dogs. But this dog scares me. I see no purpose for a breed which is so obviously designed for aggression. Looks like trouble on 4 legs and we have enough of them running around right now.

  • @Sodnal - the same can be said about supercars or any car for that matter, we have national speed limits of 70mph here and less in other countries, yet manufacturers build cars which can do 140mph+, including the smallest environmentally friendly cars.

    Owning a beast, comes with responsibility - good training, owning a car comes with responsibility - your foot.

    Yes there are the few who race on the roads, use dogs as weapons, but why should they ruin it for the majority who are sensible. :-)

  • @CerberusMolossers The dog looks like jaws on 4 legs. I'd sure hate to do something to annoy him. Like I say, I know dogs, I love dogs. This one scares me. And I've owned a Rottie. Best Regards.

  • @Sodnal There is nothing wrong with aggression in a working dog, it is actually a feature.

  • how much do they go for

  • i have a corso hes A BAD ASS

  • cooolll...i love it that dog!!! ;)

  • I love that you kept the dog natural. Cropping the ears is so cruel and disgusting. As for the tail, I am inpartial. Once school is finished I hope to have a female CC!!!!

  • I think the tail should be docked and ears trimmed.

  • perfect song for this great video

  • perfect song for this great video

  • wow, intense. We are Cane Corso breeders in New York. Check out our new site CaneCorso.xxx and follow us on Twitter at Twitter dot com CaneCorsoPuppy

  • I love the breed. I've been scoping around for breeders b/c I do plan to own a CC in the future. The more I read about them, the more I see them, the more I want one. But I want to get my CC from a breeder that has had his or her dogs shipped over from Italy. (I'm in the States). I personally prefer to visit the kennels and keep in touch with the breeders. But man just seeing the beautiful CC you have makes me really excited to own this amazing dog!

  • i like the slowmo as his balls are bouncing

  • @CerberusMolossers is all hunting banned in the uk?

  • @tuffsing313 - not not all, there are concessions in parts of the UK, you have to check with the local governments rulings. Generally hunting for sport is frowned upon, hunting to remove vermin from ones land is permitted in certain parts, but the use of dogs for catching is a grey area in many parts. The UK has systematically ripped every citizen of their rights in many nature-related activities, they do not call us the No-1 Nanny State for no reason!

  • @CerberusMolossers thank god you can still hunt, you have a great hunting tradition and culture, i realy hope you can preserve it for the next generation.

  • perfect dog. nice color too

  • I completely agree with your CC concepts and views! I leave my CC ears alone. Tail to me is a must (personal preference). Check out my site.......marstons cane corsos dot com

  • how much are these dogs?

  • I«ve got a 60kg cane corso but he's pure muscle :D really giant

  • SONG ? ? ?

  • @TheYeahNikka - entirely your choice my friend. You do not have to pay the earth for a Cane Corso, especially one which has had the snip. I'd recommend looking into owning an Australian Bush dog, they're amazing dogs if you can domesticate one!

  • Jeez, if it's a home defense weapon you're after, get a gun. You only have to feed it as often as you use it, and it never bites of its own volition.

  • @scarabmango - I think most would agree with you there, but then who's going to play fetch??? ;o) As a wise man said once, anyone can adopt a child and skip going through child-birth and sleepless nights, but then life would be dull... the joys of owning a relentless guardian dog, begin with teaching, feeding, training more, watching and living with the wonderful creature called a mans-best-friend... the dog. A gun could not return the love you the owner share with it... unless it backfires! lol

  • @CerberusMolossers I actually really love dogs and have two myself (100 lb lab, 80 lb goldendoodle). The one Corso I met at the dog park was very friendly and had one of the softest coats I've ever felt on a dog. My philosophy on home defense is "Dog wakes me up with barking, I handle the rest." I certainly have nothing against these meaty dogs with muscle-basketballs for heads, but as I'm not an ancient Roman legionary, I have no practical need for one.

  • @scarabmango - true, when I actually do get round to looking in the mirror, I gotta agree with you there, I aint no Gluteaus Maximus either, but, its part of the package. We choose our women/men, because they attract us and have qualities we admire (usually), we choose cars based on what we like and what our budget can afford us, the same goes for dogs my friend. I have to admit, if a my land was trespassed on, or my property invaded by criminals, I will sit back, light a cigar, watch the show.

  • I want one, but I am debating with a rottweiler. Both dogs have the same needs but.....I WANT ONE!!!!

  • @SickK8GSXR600 - I would not say same, there are quite different (speaking with many yrs of experience with rotties), but yes, both can provide the same function at the end of the day. Rotties have a different look to Corso's, if you want the one who can look like he's about to rip everyone apart then the rotties the dog to have, the Corso are leagues more majestic in their progressive aggressive approach to showing anger or warning. The Corso is generally considered sharper and more accute.

  • realy your going to right all that crap and then just play some fetch  ur gay

    ]

  • @lloyd23704 - There are thousands of videos on Youtube with Corso and many other working breeds doing some sleeve work to acting like mental nutcases, feel free to use the YouTube search facility. I try to keep these videos kiddy safe and to keep big kiddies who like rough stuff out of my channel! And you really should stop trolling around peoples videos on YouTube, I've seen your other comments on other videos, you do sound very antisocial, were you not breast fed????

  • @FrankCleocuz- I have a 2+ year old Cane bitch who is stellar with our children (she gets them up every morning. They're 6 &8) We also have a bullmastiff who is now very old and was our "pillow pet". BUT I will warn that while Corsi can be the gentle giants that bullmastiffs are, they have a LOT more energy, drive and assertion, need a stronger leader than bullies and have more need for exercise of the body and brain. They're much smarter IMO.

  • the dog's got massive testicles O_O

  • Glad i stumbled upon this great information about corso's!

  • im just wondering, is it normal to have a cane corso at 120 - 125 pounds? tats what i got.. cuz i know the standard is 90 - 110

  • @OneLoveOneHeartPeace - the weight and size in general vary a great deal from breeder to breeder. What variation you prefer is entirely your choice. The smaller ones tend to be the more up-for-it types usually. 120 pounds is a good weight IMO. I myself have specifically grown them larger but kept their agility in check, that is the only thing to watch out for, if you go bigger, make sure the dog can function as per your needs.

  • @OneLoveOneHeartPeace I've seen a corso that weighs 175 pounds before.

  • I've met one of these at the dog park with my 100-pound lab and 75-pound goldendoodle. From what I've seen, this breed gets along very well with other dogs and has a coat so soft you could use them as pillows.

  • i have a cane corso.. she is my princess and i will forever be a cane corso fan! such a sweetheart

  • If I can get a female cane corso, 8 months deservs it to accept? Can I uprear it on 8 month? Sorry for my bad english :)

  • @cozmyx25 I hope you don't mean breed it? You must wait untill they are two years of age for the hips to develope and you will stunt the female growth to boot.

  • @cozmyx25 - 8 months is fine in general, I would recommend discussing the lines temperament with the breeder to be sure they are not early learners meaning they get stuck in their ways far too early as that would require a lot of work to shape the dog to how you want. Good luck.

  • I finally got a good speciman when I get the chance I will produce a good video of her. Nice video you have!

  • One more thing with this breed , if you are considering of getting cane corso as your pet cut his tail and his ears , man he looks much more beautiful and bad ass with ears and tail cut

  • my dog is a half pitbull half cane corso

  • i love these dogs i have a girl that is rather large she is 95 pounds and very little body fat. if any one in FL has a stud let me know. (0nly pure bred)

  • Comment removed

  • Would you recommend a cane corso as a family pet with two kids aged 7 and 8? My old bull mastiff died at 13 years old and my kids really miss him, so do I. Are cane corso a good family pet?

  • @FrankCleocuz - there is nothing wrong with having a Cane Corso as a pet, you just have to make certain the breeder you are getting the dog from "knows his onions" so to speak.... there are different temperaments, different drives, but the chances of you picking up a handful of a dog would be highly remote as most lines have very good temperaments, though the drive can kick in when not requested, and this is where the training is crucial... good luck my friend.

  • @FrankCleocuz we had a Cane Corso for 10 years as a pet. She grew with our baby daughter who treated her just like you'd expect. The dog has been wonderful all around, very docile and patient with the family, although guarded with any visitor. However, once these are properly welcomed and let in, she won't look again at them. They need space and are playful although not aware of their size: could unwillingly topple a kid. Training recommended.

  • @gfcatp Cheers for the info. I'd be sure to train the dog well, I've always made sure my dogs are well behaved and know their place in the pack, you're asking for trouble if you don't. My old bull mastiff weighed 80 kilos and was gentle as a mouse.

  • @FrankCleocuz totally with you - some people get big breeds and just don't know how important are the first 6 months... funny you mention B-M our CC is getting a bit old and we're looking at either another one, or maybe a B-M. I understand they're a tad bigger but not much. I really love our dog powerful yet slender body, and some of the B-M pics I have seen they are heavier-looking...

  • @gfcatp Yeah, my BM was heavier than most. He was a big boy for sure. I'd totally recommend a BM as a family dog, if trained and chosen from a good, well bred litter. I still might get another one instead of a CC, not sure yet. I have a staffie bitch at the moment, she knows her place but she's very boisterous and annoys the kids with her friendliness. I think she'd mellow out a bit more with another dog on the scene.

  • i hve 2 cane corso`s the ears are cropped on both and the tail is cropped on both 2....the male i have is 8 and hes 130lbs and my female gigi is about 100lbs they are both good security dogs and also good family dogs they wud nvr evr raise there teeth to a child or any1 unless u sneak up on my female orr if me or my dad or any1 else in the family tell thm to

  • WHAT A BALLS

  • wat a beautiful dog!

  • were would you get a dog like that wonderful breed from

  • Good dogs..........But Presa canario i'd Perfer :D

  • @DogSoldier011 - my niece prefers Jack Russels, each to their own my friend, each to their own ;)

  • @CerberusMolossers short legged or the person type ? idk if i spelled it right

  • @CerberusMolossers je veux un cane corso de chez vous, s'il vous plaît. Merci

  • @rayondesoleildu38 je veux un chiot cane corso de votre élevage. s'il vous plait. merci

  • @DogSoldier011 ok... u are smart leave u son or daoghter alone with presa canario and send some on at ur home he gona play with a thief....cane corso its a real protector :) cane(italian)dog,cohors(grece)­protector buy a rel dog :D

  • @MrMuameRR are you kidding me ? cane corso ? their like bandogs its hard to find a decent one thats why i havent gotten one or probably neer will he presa anario is the heavyweight at protection right next to the gull terror,

  • Beautiful video,bravo!

  • I keep my Corso at around 112lbs. My wife and I are looking to get another one at the end of the year.

  • My girlfriend has one of these dogs, and it is really friendly too

  • i love that harness...

  • beautiful dog!!!

  • I know a guy who breed his Cane Corso to a Rottweiler .. turned out some nice dogs.

    I like English Mastiffs and I also like female dogs in general, with the English Mastiff you get all the muscle and size plus attitude you need from a female, with less dominance and prey drive issues that comes standard with many guard breeds.

    Of course I have a female Johnson American Bulldog who protects my Mastiff from harm ... lol ;-)

  • that is the type of corso i want in the video, it's a stunner and i love that he still has his tail and ears, not many that aren't cropped and docked and that's a real shame, they look like teddies when they have em and panthers (well the black ones) when they don't lol, perfect corso, is their temperament a lot like a boxers? it seems that way from all the research ive done on the breed, I really do wan't one at some point and im very used to boxer's (i know it wouldn't quite be the same)

  • belea

    

  • My own 6 months puppy looks just like him :) Just little smaller.

  • @Canecorsomolossers - get some videos up of him!!! sharing is caring! :o)

  • @CerberusMolossers how come they don't get any bigger than 110 pounds? i figured they would be at least 120 pounds?

  • @Hendrik1293 - there are larger less functional tank sized Cane Corso if you like your companions chubby. Around 100lbs is optimum for peak performance, stamina, power and agility. Show dogs can be a fair bit heavier but the physical prowess and drive is commonly lack lustre.

  • @CerberusMolossers this helped alot thank you!

  • Are you based in the US? Did you get your original stock from Italy? A lot of the more reputable breeders here in the UK only breed with stock that has strong Italian heritage. In fact a lot of breeders here regularly travel to southern Italy to breed their dogs although i understand it's a lot easier, and cheaper, to travel to Italy from the UK than from the US. Would be great if you did a video discussing the breed and what to look for in a good Corso.

  • @MrAnthropophagy - a few have suggested to do such a video, but to be honest I'm not in the Corso circles, for me, I have a different vision for how Corso should be to what the breed-standard followers base their breeding programmes on. So even though my roots started with corso, my goal is Cerberus, my own derivative of the Corso, which some respect me for my individuality, but the 'type' fans frown down on deviation. The breed standard has limitations, it is more geared for regality than work.

  • @CerberusMolossers What are your aspirations for the breed then? It's a shame that a lot of working dogs have been changed due to the demands of the show ring fascists. Also a lot of people buying dogs purely as pets and breeding from them which dilutes the gene pool. This is something that has happened to German Shepards and is happening to Rotties. Most GSD have backs which are far too long causing the British Police to import their dogs from abroad. Most rotties i meet are far too friendly.

  • @MrAnthropophagy - some info is available on my website. 500 characters is not enough space to elaborate on such a huge undertaking of a breeding programme. I know all too well what has happened to the once top threat deterrent of a home watch dog the Rottie. GSD's have always been touch and go to be fair, there was a time when 1 in 5 had HD, the gene-pool was too narrow, thus outcrossing was introduced to improve the health, but knock on effect is what the majority are on the ground today.

  • @MrAnthropophagy how can a rottie be too friendly?, they were originally bred as a herding breed, its more how a dog's raised than what's in the gene pool that creates how friendly a dog turns out, I mean you could train a whippet to be a guard if you wanted to, or a pitbull to be a search and rescue dog. I do agree that having a set standard for the show ring is a big problem with breeds, especially for their health.

  • @lforsdyke..not just herding but guarding of the herd too. Their roots can be traced back to Roman times as protection dogs. If i bought a Rottie i wouldn't want it to be that friendly with people like many are today as i'd want it as a guard dog. The gene pool does have a certain bearing on a dog temprament but it's upbringing matters too. It's 50/50. Whippets as a breed wouldn't be able to be trained as good guard dogs as their natural instinct is not to guard.

  • but to me it's more important that the owner cares about the temperament and look's than the critics, a behavioural problem is only a behavioural problem if the owner doesn't like the behaviour or if it's a dangerous one for people or other animals that mean no harm.

  • Huge balls !

  • @Devi1lneverdies69 - they'd have to be, he's a proven stud in my lines, always drops amazing dogs, no matter how sub-standard the bitch! But they're not the biggest, have a look at the Neapolitan Mastiff video in my channel, hold on to your seat tight, that boy packed a factory and then some between his hinds.

  • How much does the one in the video weigh?

  • it's nice to see a human hasn't chopped it's ears & tail off looks much better & doesn't cause unnecessary suffering

  • @strawwoodclaw cropping the ears and docking the tails is not practiced for aesthetic reasons.

  • cool music bro.

  • Love that he still has his tail. My girl Burban's tail was already docked when i got her. I love this bread. She's as much of a goofball as she is a protector. When my godson was learning to walk she followed behind him and would catch him on legs so he wouldn't fall down.

  • Great video, very nice CC! Can you advice what harness is he wearing? Cant find any like this for my boy Arney Glory (13months). Thanks for the tip!

  • @gardencz - it is a size 12 pony harness modified for dog use, one of a kind, seriously!

  • Do Cane Corsos drool a lot (or at all)? How is the shedding? Is bloat common in the breed? I'm torn between getting myself a Dobermann or a Corso...

  • @edpjunior - corso do drool, but its not a major drooling problem. Thin-coat corso's dont shed as much as the thicker coats, again its down to what line you got with. Bloat is not common in the breed, they are not as huge chested as neapolitans, but some giant corso are the exception. A dobermann is a safer bet for professional work, a corso is like having your own rambo. Good luck.

  • @CerberusMolossers Do you think rottweilers or cane corsos are better? I've already had experience with the rottweilers It was my first dog actually, But which one do you think is harder to train and raise? thanks:)

  • @imadoggielover - neither is better than either. Corso are generally considered the more top-end of the market of mastiff type PP dogs, rotties are the old-skool pp dog. Rotties are shorter, but one from a good bloodline tends to be wider. The Corso usually are taller and more defined. You see, you cant really say which one is better, because they are two completely different looking breeds! If you find a corso which looks like a rottie, then its not a Corso! Good luck.

  • @CerberusMolossers Well it's just that i've read on some sites that say corsos are extremely dominant and challenge your leadership and it said that they are very stubborn and headstrong and they are more dominant and headstrong then rotties. Is this really true??? what is your cane corso like??? thanks:)

  • @imadoggielover - what are my cane corso like, temperament wise? each and every completely different. The only thing they have in common is their obedience and respect for me their breeder and master. What you have heard tends to apply to Neapolitan Mastiff's, which people stupidly god knows how but confuse with Cane Corso. Only 'some' Corso carry all-those traits, usually those derived from neapolitan as base stock. Corso are not so different to old-type rotties in temperament - will of fire.

  • @CerberusMolossers I am doing research on Cane Corsos and i've read that they need a firm leader and firm training. How do you do that exactly? How do you be their leader so they will respect you? How do you give them firm training? Thank you:)

  • @imadoggielover - the same methods which work for other breeds will work for Corso. Corso are just dogs, no different to other active dogs. Some Corso are quick learners, others know what you want but decide to do it in their own way so as to say they are still doing it but not because you asked, its an interesting character for some Corso indeed. Basic rules, repitition, treats, increase reps, reduce treats, once the basics are learnt, the rest is childsplay. Talk to a local trainer for advice.

  • @CerberusMolossers Are these dogs rare? How much should a puppy cost from champion bloodlines and from a reputable breeder?

  • @imadoggielover - root italian corso are rare, there are more fakes than the actual real corso. If you go champion, you're looking at big dollars. Unless you go non-champion. Good luck.

  • @edpjunior If you have kids or are around smaller people I wouldn't suggest getting a doberman. From what I've heard from a lot of people who have them they're not the best with smaller people or creatures. I have nothing against the breed for those who love them. Corso's do some drooling but nothing compared to St. Bernard's, don't shed as much as longer haired dogs like CerberusMolossers has said and are over round pretty friendly but protective at the same time. Awesome companions. .

  • @edpjunior go with..both.

  • but my smaller female is only 75at 10 months but is exactly what the video description says . since she was a pup she loved to guard but she weary of everyone except children. and she looks like she is sleeping even snoring and the slightest sound she hits the gate

  • @mitchdidion she sounds great.i woudlnt own any of them tho coz they would attract to much Heat :P

  • thats what i was wondering my coso is 10 months 105-107 but has huge paws and is very agile and strong but his body doesnt seem as thick as i would think i seen his parents they were thick i think maybe he got more of the working blood

  • I have a cane corso and hes about 18 months and i was wondering... do cane corso's not get thick? i'm used to rotties and he is our first corso. i always get worried because he's so skinny. none of his bones are showing mind you, and standing up his paws rest easily on my shoulders (i'm 5ft7) but his body just seems tiny to me. is it because hes still a puppy?

  • @DisturbedVamp - thats a vague question indeed my friend. Have you seen the parents of your lad? That should give you an idea of what he'll turn out looking like closely, usually more like the father with a little bit of the mother, unless the mothers genes are very strong. With the slimmer Cane Corso's they usually take a little longer to fill out, but normally around 18mnths he should be at his optimum size.

  • @CerberusMolossers His father wasnt as slim as he is... buuuut maybe i'm just being over sensitive on the issue

  • @DisturbedVamp - no you are not being over-sensitive my friend. You wanted to own a Corso, statue is important, of course u will be upset if his growth is not what you expected. At 18 months he should have filled out quite well. There could be a number of factors behind why he is slim, lack of nutrition earlier on whilst he was a pupp, worm infestation during critical growing stages, or his current diet is maybe not compatible with his digestion system, genetics, these are all maybes, god speed.

  • i have a question ...my cane corso dosen't look agresive he is not calm at all but all though all my dogs fear him i'm not so sure that he would defend me if somebody else attacks me ...not because he dosen't love me,because he is not agresive to people at all

  • i have a question ...my cane corso dosen't look agresive he is not calm at all but all though all my dogs fear him i'm not so sure that he would defend me if somebody else attacks me ...not because he dosen't love ,because he is not agresive to people at all

  • @stefanocelsi - human aggression is not a factor which is generally admired by professionals. Although some lines may exhibit naturally highly protective instincts, not all do. Find a local protection training school and book in an appointment for having your dog tested. The test should reveal if he has the natural ability which will simply require training to bring to surface or if a much longer (usually more costly) training regime requires implementation to achieve the desired results.

  • Dude goodlooking dog, I like the fact nothing is doc'ed, I got to say its ppl like you, that keep giving these breeds good names.... I personally got a Mastiff X, but been looking into cane corso's for about a year, and got to say I'm still not ready for one... Keep up the good work!!!

  • @est1982FELON - my friend, these dogs see their owners as their gods, they put their trust and faith into us, we feed, clean, play with them, they repay us with love, joy and companionship & if trained, will even put their lives down for us.

    So then for us to sedate them and chop their ears and tails off, I know they dont feel pain when being cropped/docked, bute its more a moral issue, my heart cannot betray the trust they put in us. I keep the ears and tails perfect by selective breeding.

  • ino, I had never even heard of this breed untill i watched this vid. they are my "new" favourite dog, would love to own one. thanx for the info

  • Can you upload a video of this boy running at full speed? I get the impression this corso is possibly twice as fast as most corso based on the slowed down footage? whats his personality like with strangers and other dogs? I can see from his look he is the classic type, how does one of these compare to the modern day corso?

  • @Jason42USA - at full speed his body pumps like a cheetah! he probably hits about 35mph on a good run, dare I say more. Personality? are u kidding me?? hahaha, ok you know he is the classic look and type, with that comes the classic temperament, try to get near him and you'll never forget it, other dogs tend to stay well clear of him though when he was a pupp he lost it completely with a GSD male. Theres no comparison between classic and modern corso, modern looks butch but lacks the brutality.

  • so there not banned in the UK?? I would definitely consider owning 1 once my own dog is gone.

  • DOBERMAN'S any day of the week!

  • I saw 2 of these dogs today, and they were the friendliest dogs I have ever seen.

  • is this breed illegal in the UK??? fine looking dog :)

  • Mine is about 56 kilos right now, I have to express my displeasure to the guy with the mix with a boxer. I recently saw a show on TV called gang dogs and for the most part it was all pitbulls till they showed the presa then the Corso. These people on this show are leading people to believe that a Cane Corso is just a really big pitbull. They are also leading people to believe the presa is the same dog. Ignorants is a bitch!

  • lol.

  • 1:14 omg his balls must hurt, look how they swing...(no homo)

  • i prefer boerboels over these dogs

  • @BelgianBasterd - My niece prefers Jack Russels. Everyone has their tastes. Thanks for sharing :)

  • My neighbours have a Cane Corso, I LOVE him!

  • Mine is 2 yo and 59 kilos. he is friendly to people hes introduced to at home but is not good with other dogs especially males! id like to curb that but thats the breed i suppose. he is my best friendx

  • my cane corsos name is OSO!!!!!

  • I want to buy a Cane Corso but i'm only unsure about one thing, that he wouldn't be aggressive towards me and my friends and family...?

  • @SHADEZEMUN

    I have cane corso 3 years old, he is not aggressive with people he knows,

    but he is very aggressive when somebody unknow get on his territory.

    My recommendation to take cane corso, and enjoy.

  • my corso named BIGGIE

  • Someone asked me "why are there so many different looking Corso?", the answer is simple, the breed has not matured to a steady state yet, many differing views and debates on this very issue are currently a hot topic amongst corso breeders worldwide. Personally I prefer the less skin, more agile and athletic versions, true to the classic look of the early 80s.

  • @CerberusMolossers what breeds did they mix to make this dog?

  • @rebel94m - depends which bullshit from which breeders mouth you want to believe. In recent years there has been a fair amount of skilled 'sneaky' mastiff crossing going on, whence why they've become taller and their hind legs less angulated. I totally despise straight hind legs, the corso loses its war-dog posture by going stiff at the rear end. If you look at this years Westminister Corso show you'll notice what I mean. Many breeders are destroying this 'once' able breed for showing IMO.

  • I'm glad you didn't clip his tail and ears. I have a lovely Corso mutt who has all the traits you mention. I'll send a message to you with his video.

    I'm really worried that the Corso will become a breed like the pit bull family of dogs - horrible people getting them, to look cool, only to neglect the dogs or even abuse them until they lose their natural love of people. The problem with the Corso - is that lots of people think they are "bad ass," and don't care about loving dogs.

  • great song. do they become very attached to thier owners?

  • ONE HUGE ASS DOG! Nice to see it's ears and tail are still on it (:

  • Someone asked why do I say a Cane Corso is not a true Corso if he weighs more than 50kg. People really should not read into internet text so literally! The point is simple, a CC pushing upwards of 50kg is LESS capable than one under. The original working purpose for this breed was to protect large spreads of land, farms and also livestock, to go flat out all day without requiring a 10minute rest every 10mins of activity like its cousin the Neo. Keep the Corso true to form so the breed succeeds!

  • I see you found a use for that old Top Gun sdtk tape you had sitting around. :)

  • @ubicomp - you think it shows my age?? ;)

  • beautiful looking animal

  • Ive got two Cane Coro's One is aprox 110 punds and the other is 120 and STILL GROWING! Its paws are huge. However they are both the lovleyest and most friendly dogs you could ever meet.

  • @kingmonkeyballs - they sound like monsters my friend. Be sure to upload some videos of them to share with the rest the corso community on youtube ;)

  • TOP GUN !!!!!!!!!!

  • OMG this song!!!! Me and the old man going to buy a corso soon!

  • i have a cane corso he is about your dog size but maybe a bit bigger i dont want to brag but he is bigger he has more of a rottweiler head actually its bigger then a rottweiler head i think his mother was a cane corso english mastiff and his dad was a pure cane corso im not truely sure but he is very friendly AND YES THEY ARE VERY HARD TO GET A VERY UNCOMMON DOG!!!

  • @conquering7tide7fan - sounds lovely my friend. There are some very large corso out there, but they could never rub shoulders with the real thing, size in an athlete works against him. Corso is not about being big headed, its about overall balance, the perfect athletic molosser, a big heavy head does not do a Corso justice. If you take an american bull terrier and proportionally increase his size to that of a CC, that will be a perfect comparison to a true Corso.

  • @CerberusMolossers 1:50 Wow that dog can jump very high for such a huge dog. It can jump as high as my 17kg staffy cross.

    I never actually watched the video before posting my first comment.

  • @CerberusMolossers Well I don't really know much about the Cane Corso. I'm just judging their speed but the way they look and the videos on youtube.

    But so far, judging by what I've see and ho they look, they are pretty slow imo.

    I think those are just more myths created by CC fans. There are myth about every dog breed created my crazy fans. But yeah, maybe I'm wrong, I don't know.

  • @BlueGama600 - As many dog breeders would tell you, never judge a dog by how it looks. Most Neo's look big and cuddly and friendly. That view changes very fast when you see one go ape, and you realise how fast a 70/80kg neo can move when he's pissed off. Cane Corso on average weigh around 40-50kg, and have low backends with angled hocks and a large amount of upper leg muscle mass, not to mention around 27-28inches in height & usually are very game, this all equals a formidable chasing machine!

  • beautiful dogs...I got two Leo and Gia there the best!

  • Every roman legion had a unit of fighting dogs like Cane corso or napolitan mastiffs(both breeds from south Italy)

  • GOTDAM thats a big ass dog lmaoo
