Cane Corsos

[CathyBogart]

I can't blame people, they're a magnificent breed.

Cane Corsos really are big, adorable pups.

I just HOPE that because breeds like Presas and Corsos are becoming popular, it does not mean that stupid people will exploit the power/size/loyalty of the breed as they did Pit Bulls.

I have always loved them and I'm a little scared for them, one part of me thinks that if they recieve AKC recognition, the number of 'akc reg'd pups, $800' type breeders who only have registration to show for will skyrocket

I found out about two years ago that I was pronouncing it wrong the whole time! (correct: caynay corso)

"caynay" corsos? That's a bit odd, haha. I've probably been pronouncing them wrong this whole time, too, as well as every dog trainer and Corso owner I've talked to!

[Suki Wingy]

someone showed me the pronunciation part in the dog fancy article about them because I w3as pronouncing it "cain" so I guess Dog Fancy is wrong.

there seem to ba a few different ways
I just found this

Cane Corso (pronounced Cawnie Corso)

and this:

Cane Corso (pronounced Kah-Neh Kor-Soh)

CANE CORSO
Pronounced
CAH-nay COR-so

Pronounced Carn-ay Corso (Cane being Italian for 'dog' and Corso derived from the Latin Cohors meaning protector), the breed's name literally means 'guardian' or 'protector dog'. Historically, this term perhaps initially described a type of dog rather than a specific breed.

Cane (pronounced 'Connie') - which means dog.
Corso - derived from the latin word 'cohors', which means to guard or protect.
