Welcome to Sleeping Giant Cane Corsos!We are small hobby breeders; in fact, all of our dogs live in our home.We do have outdoor facilities where our dogs can enjoy nice weather during the day. We both possess past experience with larger, dominant breeds.We take rearing a litter of puppies very seriously, and spend an enormous amount of time observing, handling, and playing with them.
Our breeding program searches out dogs for a unique purpose; for the ability to perform in the show ring and also for their courage and willingness to work. Our kennel selectively breeds litters for the purpose of producing outstanding working and show quality Cane Corso puppies.
LaFaccia Cane Corso breeds only to preserve the best possible qualities of the Cane Corso.
We insist on a stable temperament and correct structure according to the Cane Corso standard, in essence a quality Cane Corso of sound mind and body.
We are very active in the conformation show ring, we attend working events, and most importantly we put a large emphasis on the health of our corsi both mentally and physically before they are considered to be breed worthy.
Occasionally we have puppies. All our litters are planned ahead and we pick pairs that will complement each other to produce the puppies with better qualities than their parents. Our goal is to produce top-quality Cane Corso puppies of correct type, stable temperament and good health, puppies that will grow up to be show winning dogs or make great companions. We accept deposits for unborn litters.
Our Cane Corso’s (often referred to as Italian Mastiffs) are an excellent breed when you want the perfect mix of companionship, protection, intelligence and performance. At Manganiello Cane Corso we take great pride in our dogs. All of our puppies are raised in our home and well socialized with our family and other dogs.
The journey for EPIC began well over a decade ago when Heather Vitcusky and John King purchased their first Cane Corso.Heather is a strong believer in putting only her best examples in the conformation show ring. She strives to produce consistent, balanced, sound examples with exceptional breed type, structure and TEMPERAMENTS.
