I'm Denise M., the breeder behind Forest Lake Cane Corsos located in De Land, FL. I breed for the total dog as a preservation breeder. Health and temperament are extremely important to me. All puppies come with a 26-month health guarantee. The breeding dogs are also conformation Champions.
Q. & A. with Denise
Why did you start breeding?
I do not take breeding lightly, over the past 20 years I have titled Dobermans, Presa Canarios and Cane Corsos. I am fortunate to have had excellent mentors in each breed that guided me.
What makes your program special?
Any breeding dogs are titled in AKC, completely health tested and have excellent temperament. I stand behind all puppies with a 26-month health guarantee and lifetime breeder support.
What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our puppies include chestnut brindle and gray brindle. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.
Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.

Breeder-Reported Testing

Elbow testing reduces the chance of passing down elbow dysplasia, which is primarily found in large breed dogs and can cause arthritis in the elbow joint and front leg lameness.

Heart testing reduces the chance of passing down congenital heart disease, which can cause a range of symptoms ranging from trouble exercising to heart failure.
