Title: Hellio from Ontario
Post by: BRT on April 13, 2011, 02:15:14 PM

Not a Corso owner here (yet), but definitely interested.

I had been researching them for some time but, with an apparent extreme variation in size, temperament, energy level, protectiveness, health issues, etc, I still haven't got a solid feel for the breed (of course, can be said for many other breeds, as well).

Also, from what I gather, good breeders are few and far between (and this, too, can be said for many, if not most, other breeds).

I, very much, look forward to the learning experience!

Hi and welcome from the east coast! Good luck with you search but you are on the right track with researching lots before :)

Thanks, Mary.

I always research my dogs - a lot. 
But so far, this breed seems to be
particularly difficult to figure out.

 :)  Maybe it's just me?  ???

Thanks, Cody.

I have been looking ...
Are there any old threads, in particular,
that you could recommend?

Good luck  :)

  I know this is basic and Old School.... just make sure you meet your pup's parents... personally it would be tough for me to purchase a dog without meeting them and seeing their living conditions... it shows you so much... there are also some incredible animals in the rescue chain....cheap too (free)     T.
