Canecorso

As a recently recovered breed, the Cane Corso's history is shrouded in mystery and differing opinions. It is generally agreed that the Cane Corso is a farm dog which has been used for stock control, property and personal protection and big game hunting throughout its history. The breed was recovered from near extinction through the efforts of enthusiasts in the 1980s, the Corso is now popular globally, as can be seen by Lebron James, Laila Ali, and Tracy Morgan's ownership of Cane Corsos.


The Corso is likely derived from the same root stock as the Neapolitan Mastiff; the historically documented Roman war dog "Canes Pugnaces". The Corso favours agility and speed, where the Neapolitan is known for power and strength.

At their October 2009 meeting the American Kennel Club Board of Directors approved a proposal that made the Cane Corso eligible for full AKC registration on June 1, 2010 and eligible to compete in all AKC competitions as a part of the Working Group starting June 30, 2010

The Cane Corso ('kha-nay kor-so') is a large Italian molosser. It is well muscled and looks more athletic than most other mastiffs, tending less toward sheer bulk like the English Mastiff and more towards definition like the original Old English Bulldog. The official FCI standard calls for dogs to stand from 62-69cm (23.6-26.7 inches) at the withers, with females in the lower range and males in the higher. Weight should be in keeping with the size and stature of these dogs, ranging from 40-50 kg (88-110lbs). The overall impression should be of power balanced with athleticism.


Its ears are naturally dropped forward, but where legal, many breeders crop them short and close to the head so that the remaining stubs stand upright. Its muzzle is as wide as it is long. This head size also means a superior bite strength. Most Corsos have docked tails as well. The standard calls for docking at the 4th vertebra, although often they are docked shorter.

Corsos appear in two basic coat colours: black and fawn. This is further modified by genetic pigment dilution to create blue (from black) and formentino (from fawn) colours. Brindling of varying intensity is common on both basic coat colours as well, creating tigrato (full brindle), black brindle, and blue brindle. Fawn also has a number of different expressions, ranging from the pale of a formentino to 'red' to the more common beige colour, with the back coat hairs tipped with black. In blue dogs, the nose can appear grey, but should be darker than the coat. In all other dogs, the nose should be black. White markings on the chest, toes and on the chin and nose are seen as well, with smaller white patches being preferable.
