Why We Breed

Disclaimer

These are large and powerful dogs with a bite force up to 700 psi. They are very dominant and can be stubborn, but are very loyal and loving with their families. They are amazing guardians and work dogs, but need extensive socialization and training to ensure they do not become reactive and overly aggressive. Despite being stubborn, they are a very intelligent breed and are eager to please their masters. They take to training well, and enjoy having a job to do. Training and socialization are not finished when they are puppies. It is a lifelong commitment to maintain their skills and respect. These dogs are very dominance driven. If you are not a proper leader and earn their respect as the Alpha of the pack, they will take it upon themselves to lead, and can become a problem animal. Having a trainer or training plan in place from the time your puppy comes home is a must. They will test their boundaries and figure out where they fit it in their new "pack". They will continue to test their boundaries periodically as they grow. Despite the challenges, they are worth the work.

Some History

The Cane Corso has a long history. They are often referred to as the ancient Roman dogs of war. While the Canis Pugnax was bred and used by the ancient Romans for warfare, that was 2,000 years ago. After the fall of the empire, the war dogs became hunting and farm dogs. They were used for hunting large game, guarding homesteads, and working with large animals like pigs, cattle, and sheep. After WWII, the breed almost went extinct, but was still thriving on small farms in Southern Italy. Dr. Paolo Breber took an interest in the Corsos and began a mission to bring the breed back in the 1970s and 80s. Since then they have been growing in popularity as personal guardians, companions, and as working dogs.

The Outlaw Bloodline

Outlaw is a family owned kennel breeding and training traditional working Cane Corsos. They are one of the few to have an actual bloodline. Using line breeding, they have been able to selectively breed quality healthy dogs for over 20 years. Not only are they amazing breeders, they do their best to educate the public on these dogs, their history, and the current state of the dog breeding world. Their transparency and knowledge has impressed me from the start. They are wonderful people and never hesitate to answer questions and offer advise. They also have the approval of Dr. Paolo Breber, who was the lead scientist who brought the breed back from oblivion in the 1970s. It is my opinion that Outlaw is the best Cane Corso kennel in the USA.

Raw Diet

We feed our dogs a raw diet. It can be a challenge some times, watching sales, prep work, watching the amount they get to maintain a healthy weight, and remembering to thaw things out ahead of time. Despite the challenges, they are healthy with shinning coats and a beautiful musculature. It may not be for everyone, but we are able and willing to do it to keep them and their joints strong and healthy. For our puppies we start them on Diamond Naturals Large Breed Puppy food with goats milk, eggs, bone broth, pumpkin puree, and plain yogurt. The goal is to have steady healthy growth and healthy GI tracts. We start them on the puppy kibble due to most people not using the raw diet.

Outlaw's War Machine "Tank"

Tank is a large powerfully built boy. We chose him and this bloodline due to the focus on functionality as guardians and work dogs. Not the show ring.
