About Mystic Mountain Cane Corso

At Mystic Mountain Cane Corso we are passionate about our breed. We take pride in breeding for a stable minded family member, that can also do a job, and protect his family if ever called upon. We do health testing before breeding and make sure that our dogs are workable or showing well, before we use them in our program. At Mystic Mountain Cane Corso, we are a team working on building our reputation as a trusted Cane Corso Breeder in Virginia. We are a Husband and Wife team that take our responsibilities very seriously and strive to ensure the health, safety and well-being of all our Cane Corso puppies. We have loved the breed for years and recently decided to strive to produce loving, well built, work, and family companions for you. We work as a team to maintain correct conformation and stable temperament. We feel that together we can contribute to bettering the breed for the future. Be sure to check out our website to see our dogs, and what we are planning with them, as well as puppies we have produced. We thank you for considering us as your breeder. We are honored to help you find your new family member. Our research starts with pedigrees. When we look at pedigrees we are looking for parents who have been health tested for generations. Pedigrees also show us if the generations have been strictly show dogs or working dogs. We like to see a good mix of the two. This mix will allow us to not only ensure a beautiful Cane Corso for you, but also one who is smart and eager to learn. We also take every advantage to raise a better, smarter, confident puppy. We do this by applying neurological stimulation to our puppies from day 3 thru 16. This process was developed by the military years ago and has spread to competition breeders and breeders that are breeding for service dogs. In this process you are stimulating the puppy's brain to handle different stressors. This stimulates the brain to accept, adapt, and overcome new stimuli in the outside world as they develop. Thus, making a more stable minded puppy who will easily adapt to new environments and therefore, respond and cope more easily with training, when in high distraction environments. This process is not dangerous at all to the puppy. It is simply holding the puppy in different positions for 3 to 5 seconds. If you would like to have more information about this process feel free to contact us. We love talking about our dogs and puppies. We also like to ensure that you are getting a puppy that will fit into your home and lifestyle. To help us accomplish this we like to know what your home style is. We are not trying to pry into your personal home life, rather we try to find out if you are parents of a baseball player that are going to several games a week and are wanting to have a team mascot. Or, are you the couple who goes on relaxing nature walks. Or the family who lives for all your rowdy friends to come over on game night. Each of these homes are equally great for a Cane Corso. With that being said a dog who is more quiet and enjoys private cuddle time, would be a very sad dog with a family who has friends over regularly for game nights, and vise versa. So, how do you match the puppy to a home environment you ask? It is done by watching the pup as it grows and by preforming a PUPPY APPTITUED TEST. Results from this test will let us know before the puppy goes to a new home what his base personality is. Keep in mind this is a base personality. A base personality test will tell us numerous things the puppy will or will not be able to cope with or train around. Basically, it will let us know if a pup has the ability to grow up to be a dog who needs a 2 mile hike to blow off energy, or a dog that is just fine laying in the yard while kids play next door. We test every puppy to do our best to guide what puppies your home life is best suited for. So please tell us all your dreams and goals that you want to accomplish with your new family member so we can help you get the best of the best for YOU. This will also cut out so called bad dogs that get pushed away and ignored because they are in the wrong home environment. All of our puppies come with tails docked, AKC registration, AKC Reunite lifetime registration, and our pups will have 2 sets of shots before leaving us. We offer for an additional fee ear cropping at 6 weeks of age. If you like what you have read please visit our website and look at our contracts for purchasing and deposits.
