Couple of Cane Corso Questions

Thank you Bean's mom...I too thought Corso's were much more of the athlete than most other mastiffs...and a reason we got her too. Our breeder likes to have thinner, athletic standards, he thinks it is better for their hips/joint development. Dad was 100lbs and mom 95lbs. Dad still had some filling out to do, but both were amazing dogs. She amazes me with her stamina even at off leash parks, she may lie down 2-3 minutes and is back up and running, but I do notice the heat affects her. Again, it wouldn't be a lot of running initially. I haven't "jogged" in 8 months, trust me it will be a slow start for the both of us, but I think good for her body to adjust. And I have to chuckle...I will likely jog 1 minute and walk 3-4 minutes initially!

Np! You have to start somewhere! :)

1) Never heard of any issues with Turkey, but I have been feeding my CC 1.4month old male Taste of the Wild grain free successfully for over a year now.

2) Do not take Zoe jogging. She is only 10 months old! I wouldn't do extended jogs or 1mil jogs until after 2 years and even limit it then.
90% of weight loss is diet.... the exercise is good, but without a proper diet, you won't make much of a change. I suggest going low carb.

3) Kongs hands down. And the JW Pets cruizer toys (I get them off Amazon). They have some big rubber chickens and round squeek balls that my boy hasn't been able to destroy!!
