Meet the breeder

Q. & A. with Audrey
Why did you start breeding?
I bought a cane corso puppy and I could t imagine life without him. He’s what got me into breeding. I always wanted to be able to have a piece of him whenever he gets older and will no longer be with me. And then I brought in his dad and my gorgeous Diamond and went from there.What makes your program special?
We strive to maintain the integrity and the quality of the corso. And making sure we select not only amazing pedigrees but also ensuring their temperament is amazing and the health of the parents are great so the puppies will also have the same.What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our puppies include gray and fawn, black, and gray brindle. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.

Getting a puppy from Audrey

After buyers complete the application and screening process, Audrey partners with them to find the best puppy match.
"I prefer buyers to pick out in person at 6 weeks of age to see the puppies personalities. If not able to meet the puppies at 6 weeks I would definitely like to do a FaceTime call to see the puppies and to tell me about them selves to help me help you pick a puppy based off your personality or families lifestyle. Every puppy is different and we would love to match every puppy to the right owner!!!"

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.
Cardiac Evaluation (registered with OFA)
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.
