Training is paramount.
And by training, we mean that you must train the dog, not send them away to obedience school. You may want the help of a trainer experienced with the breed, but your Cane Corso must learn to work with and obey you.

A Cane Corso is at his best with a job to do.
The Cane Corso thrives on stimulation, both mental and physical, and will shine if given a job, whether working on the farm, or “helping” with the children. In fact, the breed excels at dog sports like tracking, agility, and scent work.

Not only is he loyal, he’s extremely sensitive to his people.
A Cane Corso will be very attuned to your moods and feelings and may even think they are the cause of your happiness, grief, anger, or pride. Cane Corsi owners describe the relationship as one of subtlety and depth.

The Cane Corso is very loyal and affectionate…with their own people.
This is not a dog that becomes the best friend of everyone they meet. In fact, they’re indifferent to other dogs and people not in their family. But they are intensely loyal and protective of their own family.

This is an ancient breed.
Dating back to ancient Greece, Cane Corsi were warrior dogs. When the Romans conquered the Greek Islands, the legionnaires brought the dogs back to Italy and bred them with Italian dogs. Over the centuries, the breed became well-rounded farm dogs, guarding property, droving, and hunting game.
