    Working with Crucial Cane Corsos was an absolutely seamless and wonderful experience from start to finish. We just welcomed our magnificent Cane Corso puppy, Buzz, into our home this week, and he is already such a joy! What sets this breeder apart is their dedication and unparalleled support. Their communication was outstanding throughout the entire process we received regular weekly 'pupdates' with photos and videos as Buzz grew. As first-time Cane Corso owners, we had a lot of questions, and they always took the time to answer everything thoughtfully and quickly, making us feel completely confident. It’s clear Buzz was raised in a stimulating and loving environment. He is incredibly well-adjusted, coming to us as a very playful and eager-to-please puppy. His wonderful temperament is a true testament to the excellent foundation Crucial Cane Corsos provides through their early socialization. A specific commitment that showed how much they truly care is their lifetime support promise. They also provided a detailed transition plan, started him on potty training, and sent us home with a generous care package to make the first few days easy. They prioritize the health and long-term well-being of every dog they breed. If you are looking for an ethical, responsible breeder who produces healthy, confident, and well-socialized Cane Corsos, look no further than Crucial Cane Corsos. We highly recommend them and are so grateful they helped us find our amazing companion, Buzz!

    Lauren with Crucial Cane Corso’s is the best. She’s very open to communicating, I got Darla from one of her litters about 7 months ago. Darla is the sweetest smartest puppy ever. Our bond is incredible. I always reach out to Lauren if I have any questions or just updates about Darla and how she’s doing and Lauren is very responsive! I’m thankful I got my Pup from an amazing breeder! You rock Lauren!! <3

    We are so happy with our pup Capone. He has a really good personality. His temperament is good, no food aggression, he’s great with the kids our youngest being 6 years old. I liked how Lauren kept me updated on Capone’s growth throughout the whole process. She’s amazing! She sent me videos, pictures and she answered all my questions. She even surprised me on my bday with our special delivery! Capone came with a very detailed care kit, food, a blanket from his litter and toy with everyone’s scent. Honestly this was the best experience I’ve had purchasing a pup. I’d do it again! THANK YOU <3

    Lauren was an amazing person to work with. She helped choose the right pup for our family. Being our first Corso she provided endless support and knowledge on the breed and proper care. She went as far as delivering our pup because of our close distance. It’s Crucial to choose the right breeder and puppy.
