I'm Rachel C., the breeder behind Mortaio Cane Corso located in Houston, TX. We are a dedicated Cane Corso program breeding both import and American line Corsos, with a strong focus on health, stable temperament, and correct structure. Puppies are raised in a home environment with ENS, ESI, handled, and socialized daily to build confident, well-balanced dogs.

What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Where do your breeding dogs live?

Rachel has been certified by Good Dog's screening team for responsible and trusted breeding practices. When you're ready to reach out, feel free to ask any questions about the breed, their program, or specific puppies.
Rachel partners with buyers to find the best match as the puppies develop and their personalities take shape. Typically, matches are finalized when the puppies reach about 7 weeks old.
"We take great care in the placement of our puppies, they are done at 7 weeks when we are able to evaluate their temperament and go by the order deposits are placed."

"Puppies are raised in a home environment and include AKC registration, health guarantee, vaccines, deworming, ENS, early scent introduction, and structured socialization."
Rachel may provide a written contract or health guarantee when you purchase a puppy. This helps protect both you and your breeder, ensuring that you both have a clear understanding of the terms of your puppy purchase. If Rachel offers a contract or guarantee, the details will be personalized by them. If you have any questions or want to know more, don't hesitate to reach out to Rachel directly.
You can drive or fly to pick up your puppy from Rachel.
