Interesting fact. Cane Corso, being of any color, can have white spots on its paws and this is not a deviation from the norm. Dogs with similar characteristics are allowed for breeding.

How to choose a puppy

Puppies of this breed look very similar to each other. Therefore, at first glance it seems that the choice is easy to make. However, this is a misconception, because not every baby is destined to grow up to be a show winner. In addition, choosing a purebred dog is always a difficult process, because there is a risk that the dog will turn out to be unpedigreed or sick.

Cane Corso is a fashionable and prestigious breed. Many nurseries are engaged in its breeding. A good breeder spends a lot of effort, money and time on feeding their pets, creating ideal conditions for them, as well as carrying out all the necessary veterinary procedures. It is difficult for an ordinary person who has little knowledge of the breed to independently determine whether a puppy meets the standard. Therefore, when choosing a puppy of this breed, you should pay attention to the following points:

cost of the baby;
conditions of detention in the nursery;
the breeder has all the documents necessary for the animals (breed, veterinary documentation, etc.);
pedigree. In nurseries you can see the parents of the litter and evaluate their compliance with the standard;
baby's health. The puppy must not have obvious abnormalities (for example, dysplasia, dislocations, etc.). He must have healthy eyes and ears, as well as fur.

For dogs of this breed, it is important to comply with the breed standard, so puppies must have an appropriate exterior. Children must also demonstrate correct behavior and breed-appropriate manners. From the entire litter, choose the most playful, cheerful, healthy and well-mannered puppy.

Experts recommend choosing dogs from kennels. In this case, there is less risk of buying a puppy of a different breed or with obvious deviations from the standard. If you do not understand Cane Corso, you can use the services of a specialist or a friend who specializes in breeding this breed.

When choosing representatives of this breed, you should know that animals are divided into three classes:

Show. This class includes dogs that are called upon to perform in a variety of exhibitions. These animals have an excellent appearance and 100% meet breed standards.
Breed. Dogs classified in this class have the best genes. Therefore they are used in breeding.
Pet. Due to the lack of purity of the breed, such animals cannot compete for prizes at exhibitions or be used for breeding. Therefore, they are often bought by people who just want a great friend and pet.

It is worth noting that the division of puppies into three classes does not occur immediately after birth, but after several months.

A newborn Cane Corso puppy must grow up a little so that the breeder can determine which class it belongs to. Often, breeders, in order to sell the baby at an inflated price, divide newborn babies into classes. In this case, the purchased dog, when it grows up, may not meet the owner’s requirements.

As dogs of this breed grow older, they change a lot. As a result, any deviations from the standard will become more pronounced. Therefore, some parameters of the standard can only be assessed when the animal reaches a certain age. For example, bite according to the standard parameters can be assessed only after the dog reaches the age of 8 months. Until this age, this indicator is too unstable.

Because of this, experts advise purchasing pets at a more mature age than immediately after birth. After all, otherwise you can pay a high price, getting not a “show”, but a “pet”.

Therefore, it is not recommended to buy dogs secondhand. Here the risk of buying a non-pedigreed animal is many times greater. In addition, in this situation it is more difficult to determine the health of the dog. After all, at first glance, a non-professional will not be able to identify diseases of the breed and their presence in the puppy.

Due to their illiteracy, people often buy animals that are not the ones they wanted. Therefore, you need to know at least roughly how to choose the right puppy of this breed. If you are not confident in yourself, then it is better to hire an experienced dog handler who can easily determine which class the dog really belongs to, as well as his physical and mental health.
