A proper feeding
schedule for a Cane Corso depends on its age, weight, activity level, and
overall health. Here's a general guideline:
Puppies (2–12 months)
· 2–4 months: 4 meals/day
· 4–6 months: 3 meals/day
· 6–12 months: 2–3 meals/day
· Use a large-breed puppy food to support healthy growth.
Adults (1 year and older)
· Meals per day: 2 (morning and evening)
· Portion size: Based on weight and activity—typically 4–6 cups total
daily, split between meals. Active or working dogs may need more.
Seniors (6+ years)
· Same as adults, but possibly fewer calories depending on
activity level. Consider senior dog food for joint and weight support.
Tips:
· Always provide fresh water.
· Avoid feeding right before or after intense exercise (risk
of bloat).
· Maintain a consistent schedule to support digestion and
behavior.

Better known as the Italian Mastiff, the Cane Corso is a large dog with a lot
of love and affection for the family. However, they are also one of the best
guard dog breeds. Like other guard dogs, their appearance is part of what makes
the Cane Corso so intimidating. Its regal appearance hides the fact that this
is a breed that can be incredibly playful. They also loath to be away from
their family.
There is no doubt that they make
great guardians, but proper training and socialization make them a perfect
family dog that can go with you anywhere – which will make everyone happy.

· The Aging Cane Corso
Despite being a mastiff breed, the Cane Corso is very active and playful. They
do have the typical large mastiff frame and appearance, but their temperament
makes them very unique. When in good health, they have obvious muscles that are
a perfect indicator of the kind of energy the breed has – unlike their fellow
mastiff breeds. Besides their appearance, they do share the same effusive
drooling, snorting, and snoring, so you do need to be prepared before your Cane
Corso arrives.

considering bringing a Cane Corso into your home (or already have!) then you
