Q. & A. with Melissa
Why did you start breeding?
I came to breeding more as a preservationist. I wanted to still be able to own the breed as it was intended, as I loved, & was blessed with in 2009. I wanted others to know the love & dedication that I had felt, a true Cane Corso. It is being lost.What makes your program special?
Training. Support. Temperament. Nutrition. Research. Dedication. Experience. We support our active and retired military service personnel. Our canines work in our community.What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our puppies include chestnut brindle, black, black brindle, fawn, gray, gray brindle, and red. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home and guardian homes.
