Welcome to Americana Cane Corso
The art and science of breeding the perfect dog is a bit like an artist creating their masterpiece. Americana Cane Corso is a licensed boutique kennel dedicated to producing the best Cane Corsos in the world.
Fueled both by passion for the iconic breed and the heritage of a Midwestern work ethic, our goal is to generate the very best this breed has to offer.
We focus on those dogs that we feel best exemplify the Italian Cane Corso of years passed—the dogs that would have been found long before the breed was in shows or portrayed primarily as a head breed. As we watch this breed begin to lose many of the traits that we so fell in love with, we are more determined then ever to stay the course to cultivate the very best “traditional-style” dogs we can.
For us, the joy of breeding is the continual pursuit of a better representative of the breed, our pursuit for the best, the perfect Cane Corso!
Whether you want to find a life-long companion or aim to enhance the bloodlines of your own kennel, we trust that you will find Americana Cane Corsos to exemplify the best this remarkable breed has to offer. Not only do our dogs possess the breed’s iconic physique, they are smart, trainable, eager to please, loyal, noble, confident, and fearless protectors.
As your master Cane Corso breeder, we trust that this magnificent breed will enhance your life as much as they have ours.
Warmly,
Silas and Alyssa
the perfect dog is a bit like a distiller
pouring the perfect bourbon.
They don’t know evil or jealousy or discontent.
To sit with a dog on a hillside on a glorious afternoon
is to be back in Eden, where doing nothing was not boring –
it was peace.”

What stands out the most though is hiw much they love thier dogs and serious they take thier breeding program to produce top notch, well balanced puppies.

Have been looking at breeders across the country and by word of mouth found Americana! I’m so glad I did! They have answered all my questions, concerns, sent me pics... read more and updates throughout the process of buying or beloved girl! We took a tour of their kennels which immediately had me at ease that they were not a puppy mill, was introduced to both mom and dad, saw some of their other prospects and played with the other puppies. Even after bringing our girl home Alyssa messaged me to see how she was doing. You can really tell they care about the puppies and want to make sure they go to good homes.
May 29, 2023Americana Cane Corso is the best. We love our Leroy and he is growing by the minute. I have already recommended this breeder to several people. These pups are... read more well taken care of and they all top notch. I highly recommend this breeder.
May 11, 2023It has been a year since we picked up our boy Ragnar (Oakley x Bonnie) from Americana. This was my first ever breeding experience and we were a bit nervous... read more because of the horror stories you hear. Not, the case here. If you follow Americana online it will become evident how much they care about the breeding process and clearly define why they pair the dogs that they do. Now on to our boy. Ragnar has developed absolutely fantastically. He has great structure and shape, he is very intelligent and has been a quick learner. We started socialization very early and he has done well in social environments while maintaining a guarding nature at home. Overall, we have been very happy with our dog and if we decide to get another one in the future, it will be with Americana. *note* for those of you looking to get your first corso, please do adequate research on the breed. These dogs are very independant and stubborn and require extensive work throughout their lifetime.

May 1, 2023I began my search for a puppy back in Feb 2023 and discovered Americana on the Good Dogs website. Our family has an aging Doberman and I wanted to be... read more sure to find a good protective family member to step in at our old boy's retirement. Working with Alyssa and her family great. I reached out and and she replied over night about their recently born litter of Cane Corso puppies. She sent pictures and allowed me to pick the puppy I preferred. Making arrangements was easy and given that we were coming from Wisconsin and their business is in OH, it was still easy to make adjustments due to weather and other delays. Upon arrival my husband noticed that they had several beautiful Cane's onsite. The paperwork was signed Zelle sent and we were on our way. Now on our new baby... Layla... She is perfect. She is healthy, spunky, intelligent, and definitely a beautiful representation of her breed. We registered her with the AKC and discovered a champion in her bloodline and pure Italian roots and it shows. Our next steps include some sort of training but I am strongly considering whether or not we should do agility or some other sport because our baby is all about the exercise and rolling around. Also.... This lil lady is growing.. FAST! LOL Post sale - I have sent Alyssa pics and asked questions about our girl and she continues to be responsive and really helpful as we transition our home to this new breed. Overall, I couldn't be happier with our decision and new family Member, they really are an excellent breeder.
