Meet the breeder
I'm Alissa D., the breeder behind Durgin Hollow located in Hampstead, NH. At Durgin Hollow, we breed Cani Corsi with purpose and passion, prioritizing health, sound temperament, and structure. Our puppies are raised in a family setting, building the confidence and loyalty this noble breed is known for—exceptional guardians and companions for life.
Q. & A. with Alissa
Why did you start breeding?
I was brought up with close family who bred purebred dogs all my life. I originally bred boxers but decided to move away from the breed I loved due to the high rate of health issues in that breed. After a year of research and months of trying to finding the perfect pup, I brought Akara home in 2022. The rest, as they say, is history.What makes your program special?
A Cane Corso is not the right fit for everyone. People who do pass screening and commit to one of our puppies will get lifetime breeder support. We can proudly produce health records including PennHip (0.48/0.48), genetic screening (DSRA -, DM1-), DNA testing (100% Cane Corso) and regular vet visits. In order to set your puppy up for success, we even begin basic obedience trainingWhat are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our puppies include chestnut brindle, black brindle, and gray brindle. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.
