  • Welcome back!

    We decided to spruce things up and fix some things under the hood. If you notice any issues, feel free to contact us as we're sure there are a few things here or there that we might have missed in our upgrade.

Finally...

Well, we got some good news on Saturday (4/16/22). We will be going to pick up our other Corso on May 2. It was very unexpected since we were suppose to get him in September. The guy who was suppose to have this puppy had to baxk out due to financial reasons. We feel bad that he doesn't get his pup, but we also are excited about getting our boy. He was the first pick out of the litter and is already a decent size. His name will be Gambler and he is a Formentino. These are is 4 week old pics. We will update pics when we get more. Suppose to be getting 6 week old pics here shortly.

Olive will be 7 months old on 6/4/22 and is growing very well. She was weighed this morning and is 69lbs. We are no longer feeding a raw diet. Not by choice, but because she started showing no interest in the food. We are also having trouble with sourcing some of the orgsns and meat without paying an arm and leg. It is sad but we are on a decent kibble and we still add supplemets. Here is pic of her laying on the couch with our daughter.

Olive is now 8 months old and growing fast. She is weighing in at 78lbs. Still working on training and will get into Obedience classes after her heat cycle which should start sometime this month. She is great with the family and has shown her guardian breed attributes a few times. Here is a pic of her sitting and enjoying the sunshine.20220706_162404.jpg

Just spent a little time playing around in the yard and now they are both wiped out. A tired pup is a happy owner. Lol20220710_125325.jpg

Olive is now a little over 9.5 months old. She is weighing in at 85lbs. She started her first heat cycle the other day. She is growing and is eating well. We switched to a kibble food, but think we will switching back to RAW after the New Year.

Just a little update this morning....Olive is now 11 months old and weighing in at 90.6lbs (41.1kg). She is growing, eating and living well. She will be starting her Obedience classes on 11/2/2022. After that she will hopefully have her CGC (free testing at the end of obedience). She will then go into protection training.

Sorry for the late post. Olive is now s year old (11/4/22). She has started her Obedience training class on 11/2/22. She is doing fairly well in class. We have only had one class. It is once a week for an hour for 6 weeks. She is very playful with our daughter and with Gambler. She is almost 100lbs and thinks she is a lap dog. We will get new pics taken soon of her. Been busy around the house and building a whelping box for her when the time comes to breed her.

We need the year old picture to keep the thread going! Obviously Olive is the favorite, but how is the male doing?!

I will get pictures up on both. We don't play favorites. They are equally loved. As is the cat that we have who is just over a year old. Olive is getting the training because she is the one who needs it the most. Gambler is a really good boy and what is learnt at class is brought home and worked with him as well.

Olive is really looking great! Great to hear how much training is going into her. She'll be a huge success and awesome ambassador for the breed.
