Traditionally the Cane Corso was used to hunt and catch large prey such as boar, deer and bears as well as used by farmers to guard cattle. The breed was quickly employed as night watchdogs, keepers and bodyguards due to their high levels of intelligence, trainability and loyalty. In modern times the breed is mainly kept as a domesticated companion dog but also is still used for its original farming purposes. The Cane Corso has a similar appearance to the Italian Molosser, but has a much large build. The Cane Corso is muscly but is less bulky than other breeds within the Mastiff typing. It is important to note that the Cane Corso is not a breed recommended for novice dog owners!
