Uma and I just put a down payment on first pick of a new Cane Corso. Will be a blue (actually gray), blue eye, male. We saw mom and dad dogs last weekend. Dad was about 155lbs and stands about 6' tall. Can we say BIG dog?!
I even got to use a attack sleeve with him... talk about POWER!! OMG.
Pups to arrive June 2nd. Go home with us at 6 weeks and will already be 25lbs.
Here's dad
But we aren't going to crop the ears and going for the blue over the black.
Here's a few shots of the last litter
Wifey and I are now getting very excited now that we have a deposit down and contract in. I am told a male at 150# will eat a 50# bag of food about every 2.5 weeks. And of coarse the shit will be insane... I'm thinking I might be able to shit in the back yard and it will blend in! YIKES!!! With these dogs in particular, they actually live 10-12 years.. about the same as your lab or retriever. Very light shedding, no drooling, and very much pack dogs. But as long as we socialize the dog as a puppy he should be fine with strangers as long as he don't pick up on negative vibes by us the owners. The dad dog was crazy on the attack sleeve I was wearing... bruised my arm (and I don't bruise, last time was a high side mc accident).
They are a Italian Mastiff breed. A new breed to AKC. Till just recently (the last few months) they were only papered thru a special Cane Corso association. I will get papers for that. It has great bloodlines by Denis Reed.
Should make a heck of a sight with 130# Uma jogging with this dog once he's all grown up...
Will keep this updated as soon as the pups get here...
