A good socialization is very important for the whole life of the cane corso to be excellent with the family and people. In our cane corso puppy park we do a very important socialization before the puppy is sold.
When a puppy is used to many different situations, rooms, sounds, dirt floors, stone, grass, etc… to play with adults and small children, to play with other dogs of different ages … this puppy will never have problems to integrate into a family with or without children. With children he is very patient and can stand all kinds of mischief without getting angry.
