Why I chose a Cane Corso 

95% of people have no idea about dogs. You better have a solid understanding of dog behavior if you get one of these. They know, and will own you if you don’t.

When you said “Thanos” he turned his head for a moment: “Yeah, that’s me boss!”😂 👍🏻

I have a Boerboel and absolutely love the breed. Most people can’t handle a large dominant dog though. They’re too busy trying to be the dogs friend when you must demand respect with a firm hand, but without abusing the dog.

I'm a Border Collie man, but the Cane? What a magnificent breed.

I own a Turkish kangal, and I cannot be any happier. For almost the same reasons you chose the cane corso, I chose the kangal. Great dogs, but you definitely got to be in the greatest shape of your life just to keep up. Kangal, cane Corso, dogo argentino, and alibai are all great dogs. They all require LOTS of attention in many ways, but the rewards outweighs all!!!!

I had Cane Corso. She loved my young daughter so much. One day while they were playing in the back yard, I was in the kitchen. I heard my daughter yell scaredly and Bella barked then growled and I heard a yelp. I ran to the back yard to find Bella with another dog's (pit bull) left shoulder in her mouth. The pit bull jumped my fence and Bella obviously immediately intervened and bit into the pit bull and ripped her left leg off. Bella was 20 months and 118 pounds full of LOVE for my little girl.

So now you have to do a follow-up video with WHY you don't recommend them!

I had two Cane Corsos they were amazing dogs. Sometimes, I wish I could go back in time and throw that stick again

Cane corsos are becoming quite a common breed in my area. And I don’t think a single person knows how to pronounce the breed name. 😅 Edit: I know how to pronounce the name. I meant the people who own them locally lol

You should need a special permit or required training to own dogs like these so people can’t just buy them because they’re “cool”

99.9% of people should not own Malinois or Dutch Shepherds. And a massive amount of people can’t handle a German Shepherd or Husky either. They are dumping them in record numbers.

I physically took an abused pitbull from its owner and worked with it for weeks before it realized it wasn't going to get beaten every day. She turned out to be the most loyal and lovable dog I've ever owned.

He matches your personality perfectly.

P.S. Make sure to check the lineage of yr dog as "line breeding" in the Cane Corso which is more common than you think has severe drawbacks to say the least!

That breed is royalty. Majestic. Absolutely the definition of a beautiful beast. Combined with your training skills to create the perfect companion I can’t think of another breed that compares. Granted I have Lhasa Apsos which are LION DOGS 🐶 apparently

My uncle had a cane corso a female, and lemme tell ya she was crazy 😂 in a good ish way. Was stubborn as ever picked and choose who to listen to but a great dog. Was the family’s guardian angel

My friend has 3 Cane Corsos. All 3 stay in big dog house together and eat out of the same big bowl. These dogs are the most obedient and loyal dogs I've seen in a long time. You do have to be assertive and you can't be a punk with them basically 🤪 😏

I have two German shepards, I couldn’t agree more. Please select the dog bread that fits into your life and have the time to train them and look after them. Understand what a dog breed was bread for ❤️. Much love and happiness, John 👍

Right leave them all for him. He’s the superior 1% that can own one. Lmao this guy has seriously gotten a bit weird. My 10 year old absolute beautiful beast but he’s the biggest baby such a beautiful part of the family. He gives us his all we give him our all ❤

I have 13y/o cane corso ( sgt major) best dog ever. Raised him around my kids. Ultimate family dog. Always get compliments

Hi Garrett, you’re absolutely right there’s just certain breeds that are not favorable to certain people. Especially that big boy sitting next to you. And I could name a couple more. I wish you the very best in your business moving forward. We’ve all been through a lot of muck; families and businesses alike. I’ve noticed a little uptake in people watching your videos and leaving comments. I like that! Maybe 2023 will be the year for you and your staff and your family. Blessings to all of you take care.

Next video, go more in depth as to why most people should not get one, especially for first-time owners. Thanks!

It’s the best breed ever. I lost mine last year and still look at pictures of her and lose it. She was a big baby but I knew she’d always protect me. Big bark but bigger heart

I'd recommend them. They're great family dogs and strong protectors. They just need to be trained properly and shown that you're the boss. Weak owners need not apply

I love my Corso. Excellent dog. Intelligent, obedient, and intuitive. Protection* ability is top notch.

Cane Corsos ARE THE BEST BREED EVER! 👌

Im trying to put together a small kennel in Tx to provide working class Dogo Argentino to law enforcement and boarder patrol. The shepherds are great but gesus the hair shed can get intense in texas.

Salute brother i have 4 of them 🫡

That's Cerberus from Greek mythology. Just one head but still intimidating. The dog of the underworld and he looks so badass.

To each is their own, love all dogs but personally Doberman is my dog of choice.

“However I don’t recommend them for 99.9% of owners” TL:DR: he likes to be stubborn and would likely rag doll me if he wanted to.

The Cane Corso is an ancient breed, direct descendant of the Roman Canis Pugnax, Roman War Dog of the first century. It was used in the battlefields as an auxiliary warrior and guardian. BTW "cane" it means dog in Italian language.

I have a cane corso. I love her very much but she definitely is very hard to handle sometimes. It takes a lot of hard work and dedication 💪 ❤️

I'm someone who works with dogs, and it's an important note that just because you love a breed doesn't make them right for you. This is an example of someone who knew what he was getting into, and has the ability and dedication to deal with this dog, alongside it being his breed of choice. I know many people who love certain breeds, get them, and can't handle them (mostly looking at huskies and Malinois, but my sister got in over her head with a simple lab mix) Make sure you get a dog that is the right fit for your home and life, not just the one you love the most My favorite breed is dobermans. I get so excited whenever I get to work with them, they're so sharp and focused that they almost seem to read the commands from your posture before you can say or do anything. As much as I love them, though, I do not have one. I have some joint and mobility issues, so I cannot keep up with the exercise and socialization needs a doberman has. I have a Rottweiler mix and he is wonderful, truly intuitive and wonderful at problem solving, he's been able to figure out any trick/task I've put in front of him, but I've been considering a Cane Corso as my next dog after him because my pup has some serious problems with hyper-focusing because of his Rottweiler instincts for livestock guarding. He has to be aware of everything around him and it makes it really hard to regain his focus, even with high-value rewards, because it's in his blood to search the surroundings and keep an eye on anything suspicious. He is also very skittish, very "all bark no bite" and so it can get me into trouble if he bolts away from something on leash. I've done tons of confidence work with him, but if something surprises him he's unreachable again.

Just a dumb question from a dumb German: why do you say, that you wouldn't reccomend that type of dog to 99.9% of dog owners? Is it because they are dangerous? Is it because they have their "own head"? Is it because they are on the "red list"? I'm just curious... I personally wouldn't get that type of breed... heck I have a 2 year old Labrador Retriever (which also makes is a great Police dog) who weighs 30kg... I am a weakling (170cm and 50kg light weight) when my dog starts to pull (for excample wanting to play with another dog or greet someone) I have difficulty to hold him... so I doubt I'd be able to handle such a "Tank" of a dog like you have! Anyway... I'd really like to know the reason...

This is a breed I would never own, but damn do I admire those who can properly handle one.

Best dog breed around but 100% takes a skilled, highly intelligent & strong leader. They are very sensitive dogs who can get their feelings hurt very easily and need to be with their family the majority of the time. Definitely not a dog you just leave for 8 hours a day while you go to work. But I agree best dogs around 🐾

Got my boy couple weeks ago and he a gentle sleeping giant. He had a troubled past and now he gets the love and respect like he’s one of the kids

In one of your other videos you recommended came corso and didn’t mention anything about whether is was good for 99.9% of owners. So do you recommend them or not and under what circumstances? Be more specific.

I agree, most people cannot handle them,definitely not if your not gonna put the work in,I had my 2 from cane corso rescue 9 years for Brutus and Jane lived for 16 and she was unadoptable due to severe agression,I never gave up on her and was my life line to sanity..miss them terribly I'm 70 and can't handle them anymore but my All time favorite breed

I think any person who want to have a big dog should be approve for them.. like pitbulls they are great dogs but because of bad owners they have bad reputation

You mentioned you passed on the boerboel - would love to hear more about why! 💪🏻

What do you think about the Boerbol for a family with 3 kids youngest is 2 yrs old. I have a male bully as well.

In Serbia Cane Corso is popular. My friend had a monster of a dog called Aaron. He was so big, much bigger than your boy. So beautiful and so well trained. Every day he made sure Aaron got literally hours and hours of dedication, he spent lots of money on specialised diets and everything. Unfortunately because if his size he had a heart attack during his 4th year. We were all so devastated when we found out. that dog was so much loved. But your right, without training he could have easily turned into a real physical problem. They are definitely for very dedicated and mature owners.

Thanos! he's a beautiful dog but you're right ninety-nine percent of the people should not have this dog

I guess I'm in that .01%. Just came back from shopping with my corso. Between you and Will here on RU-vid,the guy that looks like a Viking I'm always learning something new.

Ur dog can wipe out half of all life in the universe with just a finger snap. Luckily he doesn't have fingers

such a beautiful dog.

What about kangal and alabai dog breeds, tame those dog breeds then you forgot about cane corso😉😉

I love my Cane Corso too… the perfect dog for me. I totally agree about not many people should have them, at least not unless they have knowledge and experience with large, strong willed canines.

Who asked But there is a rule, you can't reply involving mom

Ad a lil adhd, remove the rarity and then you have the shortnosed fuck that name i cant remember and most probably name as brutus

I love my Bethany! She is 13 months old and is getting wider by the day!

That is one beautiful Corso! I never really seen him look like that. They usually have big body skinny legs and overweight. Yours looks really balanced

Why are sooooooo many dog owners not even close to being as smart as the dog on the end of the lead that they are holding.

I work in vet clinics so I see all different breeds of dogs that people own here in the UK. I haven't seen many but there are a few owners who have cane corsos and it's always these young guys who look like road man 💀 and they can't even walk the dog

Just got my first cane pup(5mo 65lbs), how do I get her to stop being so reactive towards dogs and people, in a good way. She just want to love everybody, and will try to pull me towards them. The prong collar has helped, but she just gets so distracted, and I don't trust the dogs in my apartment complex.sone have got nasty with her, and she doesn't seem to have an aggressive bone in her.

I want one bad!! Like really I need to know how the best breed

Yes very Strong. (France). 🐶👍

People choose the wrong dog breed not so much because they don't know dogs, as much as that they don't know themselves. One of the easiest way to make (or reality-check) important choices like that is to imagine your fairy godmother came along, tapped you on the head with her magic wand, and turned you into the dog version of yourself. THAT'S the dog you should choose. Instead, a huge number of people don't know themselves enough (or aren't honest with themselves enough) with the result that they choose the dog that corresponds to who they WANT to be, like immature guys who want to be their favorite hero instead of who they really are. Whenever I've stepped away from laid-back, friendly spaniels it's worked out terribly. That's because I'm a laid-back, friendly spaniel type of person. I'm just not an Akita or GSD type of guy, although I love those breeds. The most foolish version of the wrong approach that I know are people who get Border Collies because they're smarter than most dogs and the people who mistakenly get one saw themselves as smarter than most people. But when it turns out a Border Collie was way beyond their capacities to handle and make happy, it reveals that those people weren't even smart enough to do basic research about a dog breed and match that honestly to who they really are as a person. A perfect positive example is this video's presenter - you can tell from the way he looks and talks that he's a Cane Corso type of guy. The rule for choosing the best dog should be simply "To thine own breed be true."

Love my boy Bubba Hercules he is different and rare for real his mother is a greatdanebull and his dad is a cane Corso and rotti ..Hercules is 175.8 pounds 2yrs old and is very professional

Italian muscle 💪

Great dog, nobody should have one 🤣👍

I have a Bully Kutta, and cannot be any happier. For almost the same reasons you chose the cane corso, I chose bully kutta. Great dogs, but you definitely got to be in the greatest shape of your life just to keep up. These dogs require LOTS of attention in many ways, but the rewards outweighs all!!!

They definitely are more to handle, mine is half and she's super strong willed

This is a great product but don't buy it

MY KIND OF DOGGO!!! I HAVE 2 AKITAS AND A PUG...WILL ADD ONE OF THESE TO THE FAMILY!!

I feel the same way about my Kangals. To me they are the apex of all dogs, but they're definitely not for everybody.

Wether the dogs are strong or not if needed they will fight to save their love ones

For the same reasons I chose my wife!

THEY ARE GOOD BUT I PREFARE BOERBOELS

I recommend them for 99% of owners.

My first dog is a cane corso ❤ absolutely in love with the breed… in may she turns 3 y.o.

Why don't you recommend them?

WHY DON’T YOU RECOMMEND THEM ?

Cane Corso your saying it wrong

How about dogo Argentina?

Warning: the Cane Corso aka Italian Mastiff DROOLS and stains everything. Unless you can frequently clean after them all the time or don’t care about your walls, windows, floors and furniture getting gross dirty, then this breed is def not for the clean freak. Other than that my CC is perfect. He knows how to shake on command and I even trained him to grab the towel next to his water bowl and bring when he drinks water. You have to wipe him good after he drinks water including inside his mouth. Oh and the water bowl needs to be constantly cleaned or you’ll end up with slime. I feel the need to warn people about this because at the beginning I almost surrendered my dog because I am a clean freak but now I have a maid to come clean my walls and windows.

As long as you're a responsible owner you can have any dog breed.

Presa canário left the chat

How about the Presa Canario? I have an amazing Presa! Best dog I have ever had. Yes... a little challenging in the beginning but my god when adjusted to the "level of work" we needed of him... (just looking scary behind the fence) he is so solid AND I MEAN SOLID!! In his training! I realised when we were training him that there is NO room for error on this dog but he inpressed so much with the absolute exreme obedience and never ever fail on his task. Like a solid arrow! Aim and shoot! Obviously there were never any attack training in my program but if there were he would not ever have failed! Basically he has been solid trained to look fierce but be sweet to everyone! He is turning 12 this year. Its an old age for a Presa. ❤️

My first dog was a cane corso And goddam i loved her with all my hearth

Cane Corsos are friendlier than a box off kitten's.

What about a pitbull dude

I'm on my second Cane Corso. My first Achilles passed away from old age. He was the best dog I've ever lived with. Ghost my new boy is my best friend. They were both rescued from the pound . Amazing breeds, so smart. I think they would be great pets for more people then this person says.

I love seeing dog videos, its just a shame that popularity and trends pushes so many ill prepared owners to adopt breeds that NEED to be trained and worked to stay happy and non aggressive

I have a boerboel lol🔥

Something Roman 🤤

Exactly. Basically the same as the .44 Special, although perfection, 99.9 % should stick with the 9mm /.357 / .44 Magnum. . . . .

I agree to disagree. You’re write, it’s not a first dog to get of choice, but with moderate training knowledge they are easy and rather to learn. Ours is now 11 weeks and he gives a military dog a run for its money. He will never be as agile as a Sheppard but he’s darn close. I would stop saying 99.9% and drop it to 70-80%. My poodle was harder to train and vicious by nature. Our corso is quiet, responsive and eager. We can now put him in a stay position between a crowed with other dogs and he will sit until told to come or play.

I have one in my life and am hoping to know more from you about training him because there is not a lot of help around here.. thank you

Presa canario is more impressive......especially vs other dogs or animals....but yall keep hyping up this breed....

You helped me through rescuing a beautiful animal....MAVERICK 😍

They drool..alot.

That's a beautiful dog. But i'm more than happy with my he's my little buddy

One of the most beautifulest dogs I've ever seen and dealt with

Got myself a Mali at present... I'm Working my way towards a Cane. Totally different skill set required to own one of these beautiful dogs and bring it to its full potential... One day... Just not yet.... As I said.... I got a Mali.....

Almost daily I'm reading news stories about these aggressive dogs attacking innocent humans. There's your WOW factor.

I chose a cane because they are responsible for over 50 percent of human fatalities and because I am a dumb ass. 😂🤣😅

Pitbulls will always be my number 1. Strong, affectionate, and without the Cane's disgusting drooling 😂 actually pretty dogs
