I grew up with English Springer Spaniels and they will always be my first love. Then when my husband and I were dating he wanted a Shar Pei or English Bulldog, mainly because he thought they looked cool. I ended up getting him a Shar Pei, he was the sweetest sickly boy and unfortunately he had a short life(I put him down at 1 1/2 years).
While we had the Shar Pei(whom had MAJOR separation anxiety) we decided to get him a friend and my husband really wanted a Rottie. I was not too keen on the idea but told him fine but the dog HAD to be trained so I could handle him. While my then boyfriend was deployed I found a Schutzhund club and started training Thor to surprise him. Shortly after he returned we ended up getting another rott puppy. Both rotties died at 8 years of age to cancer, they were both healthy and active until cancer took over.
My hubby was so distraught and didn't want another dog for awhile. He came home from work one day and said he knew what kind of dog he wanted next. When he told me he wanted a Presa Canario I started researching the breed. I soon discovered this was not the breed for us at the time since we had young kids and I came across the Cane Corso. The Corsi is more fitting for a family with kids and after researching the breed and talking to TONS of people we decided that this was the breed for us. I have fallen in love with this breed and have decided that this is the one for us. I still love the other breeds of dogs we have owned but there is a BIG soft spot for the Corsi that the other breeds can not fill.
