Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Meet Bono!
Bono is a pure bred 8-week-old Cane Corso puppy. There are actually 9 available. We are normally a medical and behavioral Cane Corso & Frenchie rescue but we took this mommy in in hopes of finding a foster or another rescue to take her in and that never happened and she had her babies with us.
There were 10 total but we gifted the smallest one to one of our rescue partners to keep a lone Pit Bull puppy they have company and she is available as well through their organization. He is a muted reverse blue brindle. We have four females and five males available. We have a blue brindle, a muted reverse blue brindle, two reverse brindle (tiger stripes), a traditional brindle, two blue/fawns, a fawn male and a tan/camel black masked female.
Mom and dad were living in a homeless encampment in Pinion Hills with a couple that had just lost their house. It was 111° degrees out when mommy was outside pregnant and they reached out to another organization that took him in and then reached out to several Mastiff rescues in LA and we ended up taking mommy in. She is a brindle female with the best temperament ever she loves to show off her puppies and she allows the founders personal Mastiffs and French bulldogs to play with her puppies all day long. She is available for adoption as well. We call her mama Lucy and one of the sweetest Corsos we’ve ever come across in the 33 years we’ve had the Mastiff rescue. Dad is a blue brindle and remains with the owners. We had offered him money for the dog, but he wants to hold onto it as long as he can and we have offered to neuter the dog and he declined, but we are in touch with him and we will bring the dog into the program or get it fixed. These are the type of people that can’t be pushed. You have to wait for them to come to you. We do have photos and video of the dad.
Our founder is a canine behaviorist of 38 years these puppies have been hand raised inside unlike your typical breeder, and they have been held and spoken to by volunteers and men and women and children from day one and they’ve been integrated with the other dogs in the program. They are extremely social. None are aggressive and none are shy. They’re all middle of the road perfect and he’s worked so hard to lay down the groundwork to make these the best Corsos ever. We’re looking for adopters that can maintain that groundwork that he laid down. We can do meet and greets now and the pups can leave when they are of legal age which will be on Nov 18th. We have full pics, bios, description, and adoption requirements we will send if you’re interested in one of the pups. They have been dewormed twice, they are microchipped, have two sets of vaccines, and their spay/neuter is covered by us when they are age appropriate. There is a five page adoption application contract and health check that are required at the time of adoption. No Puppy will leave our facility before eight weeks of age.
Due to an overwhelming amount of inquires and in order for us to get back to you. Please tell us about your dog/breed experience, lifestyle, house/yard, area you live in, activity level, and all other dogs, cats, kids and other pets/people in the house. The more information the better. Emails without this information will be ignored. We prefer Bono to go into a home with at least one other dog or dogs and kids are a plus too. We have tons of pics and videos on request.
Please have prior/current Mastiff/Rottweiler/Pit Bull/Power Breed/guardian breed experience before inquiring.
Thank you,
The Smashface Crew
