My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Gus Gus is a sweet, shy Cane Corso puppy who’s still learning about the big world around him. Playful and curious, he’s eager to explore but needs a patient owner who can help him build his confidence. Gus Gus is very food-motivated, which makes training fun and rewarding—he’s always ready to learn when treats are involved! That being said Cane Corsos are a powerful, intelligent, and loyal breed that requires experienced handling and training. Due to their size, strength, and protective instincts, Cane Corsos are not ideal for first-time dog owners. They thrive in homes where they receive consistent training, early socialization, and a clear understanding of boundaries.

Though he’s still a bit timid, Gus Gus has a playful spirit and will thrive with socialization and positive experiences. He’s looking for someone who understands that he’s a work in progress and can give him the time, patience, and love he needs to grow into a confident adult dog. Gus Gus would do best in a home where he can receive consistent training, plenty of socialization, and lots of love. He’ll need someone who is patient with his shyness and willing to put in the time to help him feel secure. With guidance, he’ll become a loyal and loving companion.
