Meet the breeder

I'm Julie W., the breeder behind Knucklehead Cane Corso located in Paris, TX. At Knucklehead, our breeding focuses on temperament, health, and true Italian style Cane Corsos. Our dogs are both AKC and ICCF registered. We focus on the conformation, athleticism, intelligence, and versatility. We are committed to providing our clients with wonderful, healthy, happy family pets or show/breeding prospects. We believe in providing lifetime support for our puppies and owners!

Q. & A. with Julie

  • Why did you start breeding?

    We searched for over two years to find the correct representation of the breed and to have not only the best temperament for me and my family but what we wanted to show. After finding our 1st female, Harley and showing her we were introduced to our male, Giuseppe. He stole our heart. We got the bug to continue to show and our Kennel was born.

  • What makes your program special?

    Our breeding program is special because every dog is raised in our home with our other small dogs and grandchildren. Our dogs were chosen because of their correct conformation, athleticism, and temperament. We have proven our dogs through AKC shows and health testing.

  • What are the different breed coat colors in your program?

    Our puppies include gray and fawn, black, black brindle, fawn, gray, 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

Excellent level

Knucklehead Cane Corso reports to performing the health tests below on their breeding dogs. Ask your breeder about the tests performed on the parents of your litter. Learn more about health testing for Cane Corso.

  • Hip Dysplasia

    Hip testing reduces the chance of passing down hip dysplasia, which is primarily found in large breed dogs and can cause hip pain and the eventual loss of the function of the hip joint.

  • Elbow Dysplasia Finals (OFA, BVA, SV, FCI)

    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.

  • Patellar Luxation

    Knee testing reduces the chance of passing down Patellar Luxation, which results in the kneecap becoming displaced or dislocated and can cause mild to severe joint pain.

  • Thyroid (Autoimmune Thyroiditis, registered with OFA), Brucellosis, Canine Good Citizen (CGC)

    A breeder may perform additional tests on their dogs that do not fall into these general categories. These tests may be more uncommon or very specific to a particular breed.

  • Progressive Retinal Atrophy (PRA), Generalized, Neuronal Ceroid Lipofuscinosis 1 (NCL1), Cane Corso Type, Multifocal Retinopathy 1 (CMR1), Degenerative Myelopathy (DM; SOD1A), Canine Multifocal Retinopathy (cmr3; BEST1 Exon 10 SNP), Full Embark Panel

    Genetic testing reduces the chance of passing down a wide variety of hereditary diseases of differing prevalence and severity such as Progressive Retinal Atrophy (an eye disease) and Von Willebrand's Disease (a blood disease).

    Julie was extremely helpful and responsive to all of our questions. She made sure we understood all care requirements for his ears after cropping. She also made sure we understood all AKC registration services.

    I went with Knucklehead CC because they display major transparency! If you do not follow their Facebook page, you should. You can tell that Julie is so proud of what she does and does it with efficiency. Even after picking up my puppy, who is happy, playful and settled in very quickly, Julie was just a text away if I had any questions!

    We love our handsome boy so much! His temperament is the sweetest. I was a little worried buying a dog from a different state but Julie answered any questions and made the process extremely smooth. She was great to work with and I’d recommend her over and over again!

    Julie was incredibly responsive and answered all of my questions without any issues. She truly cares for all of her puppies, making sure they are healthy, loved, and placed in the right homes. The puppy I received from her is absolutely wonderful — beautiful, very well bred, the perfect standard of a Cane Corso, and extremely intelligent. It gave me a lot of comfort knowing how much effort and heart she puts into her puppies and their future families.

    Julie was so amazing i feel like I didn't just get a puppy i got a extra family. We are so honored and excited to begin this journey with this champion. Julie worked with me from the start i was able to make payments until I got him paid off. She recommended transportation and we were both on the edge of our seats in close communication going through the same feelings until he reached us as I look back today im so grateful she was there to wait with me. Ill post pictures of my little knucklehead venom he is beautiful he is so perfect his stance his quick learning he is very independent already. We are so so happy and if you are looking to get a cane corso look no more get with Julie she's amazing she cares about her pups and makes sure they are going to good homes because we are all family now. Thank you Julie and knucklehead cane corso you have brought such a light into our lives we are so grateful..
