We are a hobby Cane Corso breeder in California, Pasadena.

In 1996, we purchased our first Cane Corso Italiano, Zordan, from Antico Cerberus Kennels that is located in Mantova, Italy (see Our Dogs page for a photo of Zordan). Zordan had a great show career and he produced some nice puppies as well.  Most importantly, Zordan was an unforgettable family dog.

Thanks to our friend, mentor and widely respected Cane Corso breeder Paolo Cuius, our current dogs come from the bloodlines of the most outstanding and legendary specimens of Cane Corso Italiano.

Our Goal is to aid in the preservation and improvement of this rare and noble breed through a breeding program designed to promote overall health, stable temperament and appearance as stated by the Standard, using dogs from proven lines.

Our Philosophy: We strive for the whole dog - health, stable temperament and confirmation. We feel each is equally important. Through selective breeding we hope to increase the number of exceptional specimens of the breed.
