Title: Aloha from California Cane Corso!
Post by: Leilani on October 11, 2006, 03:41:18 AM
My husband Bob and I owned our first Cane Corso "Giulietta" in 2001 ("Romeo" arrived from Italy just 2 weeks later). In August 2003, we welcomed "Nicoletta" into our home. We bred our first litter (Romeo x Giulietta) on January 20, 2004 and kept a male "Cyrano" and female "Cypress" for ourselves. Since this was our first litter, we wanted to wait a couple of years to see how the puppies have developed and with their overall success, we decided to do a repeat breeding. As females tend to go in heat simultaneously, we bred our second and third litters on July 26-29, 2006 and we kept a female "Carina" (Romeo x Nicoletta) who is the absolute sweetest joy in our lives!  :-*

We firmly believe in the "total package" of health, temperament and type when it comes to breeding: all of our breeding stock is OFA-Good, have been temperament-tested (with at least a CGC and/or TT) and have earned at least one championship. Our stud Romeo is the most recognized and titled formentino Cane Corso in the USA/Canada and his achievements include:

2004 ICCF National Specialty Best of Opposite Sex Winner
2004 Rarities #1 Cane Corso, #2 Working Dog, #4 All-Breed Dog
6x Best In Show (Adult)
10x Best In Show (Brace Class)
10x Reserve Best In Show (Adult)
5x Reserve Best In Show (Brace Class)
2x Best In Show (Family Class)
1x Reserve Best In Show (Family Class)
42x Group Placements
69x Best of Breed
ARBA Master Champion
IABCA Welt-Cup-Sieger Champion
ICCF Champion
Rarities Grand International Champion
Canine Good Citizen (CGC)
Therapy Dogs International (TDI)
American Temperament Test Society (TT-29-CACO)
Fila Brasileiro Club of America Temperament Test (Excellent)

We're happy to be a part of this forum and look forward to reading everyone else's introductions and posts!

Hello!
Great to see you on this bb, this is a perfect place for you and Bob to be (nothing like
the other boards) and you will have so much to offer.
We really missed you at the Nationals :(
Maybe next year ;D

Thanks, Yulia, Tony, Carri, Ron, Irena, Edward, Marcus, Nancy, Lou and Scott! We'd love to see you at a future show, maybe even the 2007 Nationals depending upon where they will be held and our schedule at that time.

Nancy, to answer your question, there are actually 21 puppies in the picture, although a few must be buried under the others!  ;)

Yes, Litter B was 13 puppies (3 natural, then emergency cesarean, 1 did not make it during surgery) and Litter C was 10 puppies (coincidentally, 7 natural, then another emergency cesarean, and 1 did not make it during surgery). We did not sleep for several days, however we are lucky that our vet is nearby and they are one of the few around that offer 24-hour emergency service. So anyway, that is how we ended up with 21 puppies in the picture.  :)
