Our Mission

We are Art & Stephanie Walker II, dedicated Cane Corso enthusiasts and breeders based in Akron, Ohio. Our journey with this incredible breed began with a simple idea—finding a dog that didn’t shed like our beloved Akita. That search led us to the Cane Corso, and from the moment we brought home our first pup through a trusted mentor, we knew this was the breed we were meant to build our program around.

What started as curiosity quickly grew into passion. We immersed ourselves in learning, training, and hands‑on experience, introducing our first Corso to the dogs already on our yard and gaining a deep appreciation for the breed’s intelligence, loyalty, and presence.

Today, our mission is clear: to produce healthy, high‑quality Cane Corsos with consistent structure, sound temperament, and strong working ability.

• Health First: We prioritize genetic health testing, proper nutrition, and responsible breeding practices.
• Structure & Temperament: We aim for dogs that are confident, stable, and physically correct—true representatives of the breed.
• Diverse Bloodlines: We plan to add two carefully selected females from different bloodlines this year to strengthen our program and maintain genetic diversity.
• Mentorship & Community: We value guidance from experienced breeders and believe in continuing education, transparency, and ethical practices.

We aren’t just producing puppies—we’re building a legacy. Every dog we raise is part of our family first, and we take pride in placing our pups in homes that appreciate the Cane Corso’s power, loyalty, and companionship.

Whether you’re looking for a family guardian, a working partner, or a loyal companion, we’re here to guide you every step of the way.
