They are 20 times stronger to withstand pain, than we are. Sometimes, when they have something very serious at the end of a disease, we can see that they never or almost never complain.<\/p>\n

\nWhen the nictitating membrane prolapses and becomes visible. The ‘cherry eye’ may be more common in puppies, sometimes first in one eye and then the other.<\/p>\n
There are Cane Corso lines more likely to have the ‘Cherry Eye’, than others. Its more usual when the parents have the most droopy eyes.<\/p>\n
Another problem that large breeds such as Cane Corso can suffer from is hip dysplasia, as there is a rapid increase in weight and body volume in its growth.
\nIt is a malformation of the coxofemoral joint (union of the acetabulum of the hip and the femoral head); that can cause pain and even lameness in the animal that suffers it, and difficulty to sit or climb stairs.<\/p>\n
The age of presentation goes between 4 months (in the most extreme cases) and 12 months. However, before 12 months you can perform the PennHip test where you can specify the probabilities for a puppy to develop dysplasia, but never diagnose it because it is not until 12 months when there is a sufficient development of them.<\/p>\n
The cases of hip dysplasia, in general, tend to be bilateral.<\/p>\n
The presentation of hip dysplasia also involves environmental factors such as diet, intense physical exercise, especially at young ages.
