We like Italian stuff. Most of our furniture, our kitchen cabinets, suits, sodas etc... So it should come as no surprise that when it came time to get a puppy, we went Italian.
This is Rocco. Our Italian Mastiff also known as a Cane Corso.
Right now he is 8 lbs. but when he's full grown he will be between 120-150lbs. and will probably look like this
Cane Corsos were bred to be Roman dogs of war and are very athletic but also good with kids and dumb people.
You may question the fact that we've invited a roman battle machine to be a part of our family. Let me explain, we live in the city and as such, we are more prone to encounter the occasional thief, tagger or door-to-door salesman. Roman war machines can come in handy.
Having a puppy is exhausting but also very rewarding.
We love little Rocco, even though he bites us and craps all over our house.

Love the pics! He seems so little in your lap! I wish I could hold him in my lap. He will grow up quick.Have fun!

He's very cute.
At least his craps are small...for now.
