IMG_3867.JPG IMG_3866.JPG We have purchased 2 Corsos they are currently 2 weeks old, male and female! Getting exited to get them in 6 weeks! Any tips? New to Corsos, but not to large breeds!

sorry I commented on your other post but you already know which puppies you are getting at 2 weeks? Are they the only 2 pups in the litter? Not a fan of those who sell two puppies from one litter at a time, but please research littermate syndrome so you know what the outcome could be, what signs to look for and what to hopefully do to prevent it.

No problem, I have raised littermates before, Rotties and more recently 4 Border Collies, now that's a handful! Thanks for the heads up on LMS, as far as the breeder selling me these 2, you must understand there circumstance! First off his wife is pregnant due next week and with the little one coming they have decided this will be their females first and last litter! Their previous litters were from another female! This litter was special to me because here father is Zues Gerassi from Black Pearl and the Father to these pups is from old lines, his head is a big as a truck lol! I've known this guy/ breeder for a while and I'm a trainer, yes a glutton for punishment!

I am glad you have experience with it but I had rotties in the past and thought I was ready for a corso, until Hemi entered my life and showed me how wrong I was. They aren't like the rotties people have now and underestimating then can result in issues.

I fully understand how difficult it can be to have babies and puppies at the same time, I had one 18 month old and was pregnant with the second when I had my first litter. Nothing in life worth doing well is easy, but I still would not sell two together, sorry personal opinion which I know won't be popular with you.

I am also aware of who Zues is, he is a nice male and while from nice lines I don't know that I would call them old lines. I wish you all the best and hope it turns out the way you hope.

Sorry, need to clarify, Zues is the father to the Mother of the current litter, The sire of this litter is old lines, I wasn't referring to Zues as being old lines!
