Comment to 'Italian and American Cane Corso - differences'
  • [quote=bullmol242]I have been into the Corso's for over 8 years, I still two Corso's and co-own several more. When I first started researching the breed, I never found any undershot dogs, all the dogs I have seen in the past had minimal white. They had deep set eyes which did not potrude. Now I have seen undershot dogs, looking very bully, protruding eyes, Like a boxer, a large amount of white, ( dogo ). Whether american or european both sides have crossed dogs. I found that the past corso's of the U.S. had much more type and better working temp. We have to remember that this is a working breed. Sharp temps are welcomed and are needed for true working dogs.[/quote] Good points. I dont think you can generalise and say "the Italians do this and the Americans do that". There are serious, hard working breeders on both sides of the pond and also the not so serious that try to put their own twist on the breed and do not really care how the dogs of the past were or try to preserve the breed. Also, do not forget all the good programmes in northern Europe, South America and other parts of the world. Its not only an Italy/US thing.
