Common Misspeliings: Cain Corso, Cane Corsa, Can Corso, Cain Korso, Canecorso, Kane Corso, Cane Carso, Caine Corso

The Cane Corso is a  robust, muscular working dog that is native to Italy, where it was originally used to hunt game and catch cattle.

Possibly the only "Coursing Mastiff left in the world, the Cane Corso does not drool - unlike some other Mastiff breeds, and is easy to house-break. Intelligent and easy to train, the Cane Corso dog breed gets along well with other pets and makes an excellent working (hunting , guard and cattle ) dog and family pet.

Cane Corsos are very gentle and submissive - especially with children. They stand from 25 to 28 inches at the shoulder and weigh from 92 to 110 pounds (females may be slightly smaller). This breed has a dense, rough coat that requires minimal grooming. Cane Corso dogs need daily exercise, but are also laid-back and enjoy snuggling up on the couch too!
