Lol, welcome to the forum from another CC lover.
Snoring...get used to it, they snore loud!
As for the rear legs being higher, some CC grow like teeter totters, rear the front. They go through some pretty fugly stages in their development. The teen age years are awkward for most CC lol.
Where did you get your baby from if I may ask?
The biting will subside as they get older, I have always used the redirect to a toy they can bite then lavish with praise when they do.
They are a very owner sensitive breed, they want to please. Mine do not do well with physical corrections, even raising my voice at them "hurts their feelings". As soon as they figure out what it is you are asking of them they strive to make you happy.

Welcome. My corso snores and howls (loud) in his sleep. He's also very vocal during the day. He has alot of energy and runs very fast. I feed my dogs raw.

Thanks all! Rocco will be 5 months in a week and he is so curious! I live in Philly and used a local breeder. he was a litter of 12!

He's also going through this shy phase with other dogs?! Normally, when i take him to the dog park he is all fun and games but recently, he sits off to the side and hides behind my legs like a kid @ their 1st day @ a new school. What gives? He's excited alll the way there and even wants to play when we get back but around the others, he goes into his shell!

Hey!

Re; the leg shaking. My previous corso would often shake his hind legs during vigorous play, I worried it had to do with nerves or joints. Ended up being nothing at all and continued until we had to say goodbye. All X-rays were fine and there was no pain.

I should mention however he had terrible environmental allergies and a highly over active immune system. This meant he was continuously on some type of medication, including antihistamines, steroids etc. this also affected his behaviour.

Welcome to the board...I have a blue male neo who sounds a lot like your boy.. Kaz is 4 months old now and snores and snorts like a man and pig!..lol...He too is super lazy and I am lucky if I can get him around the corner with only 4 pit stops, They do grow fast and are so heavy to stressfull on their joints so best to limit their exercise to moderate walks...no vigorous exercise or jumping out of cars up stairs etc...Your pup is very very cute!

Inga is 6 month and snores like big old man...she snores louder then my hubby. Pretty sure snoring is normal trend for them. As for the activity level an hour at the dog park wears her out for the evening, or an hour of tag of war and chase the ball with us...She also bites, not too hard but she does, if we make it look like we are hurt and pull away she usually stops and look guilty.
