Q. & A. with Josh
Why did you start breeding?
My journey into breeding began with owning and raising Cane Corsos and falling in love with their loyalty and intelligence. Through education, mentorship, and experience, I decided to responsibly breed dogs with sound temperament, strong structure, and excellent health, always putting the dogs first.What makes your program special?
What sets my breeding program apart is intention and quality over quantity. My program focuses on: • Direct import champion bloodlines, primarily from Romania • Excellent temperament first — stable, confident, family-oriented dogs • Correct structure and heavy bone, true to the Cane Corso standard • Raised with children and other dogs, not kennel-only environments • Ethical, responsible breeding, not mass production Every breeding is carefully planned to improve the breed, not just produce puppies. I prioritize health, temperament, and structure, and I stay closely involved with my dogs from birth through placement.What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our puppies are chestnut brindle. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.

Armani, mom
Cane Corso
About Armani
Armani is a stunning female import from Romania with direct champion bloodlines and exceptional European structure. She embodies everything we value in the Cane Corso breed—powerful bone, correct head type, balanced movement, and a confident yet affectionate temperament. Despite her impressive presence, she is incredibly gentle-natured and intuitive. She enjoys structured play, outdoor adventures, and relaxing with the family. Her calm, patient demeanor makes her wonderful with children and respectful around other dogs. She is protective without being reactive—stable, clear-minded, and loyal. She is registered and comes from fully health-tested lineage, with recommended health clearances completed to ensure soundness in hips, elbows, and heart. She represents the foundation of our program: beauty, brains, stability, and true working ability. She is not just a showpiece—she is family first, guardian always, and the standard we strive to reproduce in every litter.
