Meet Aza

Aza is an intelligent, 100 lb. Cane Corso mix around 2-3 years old, and is fully potty trained (he’s never had an accident in his foster’s home). He is also kennel-trained (expert level). When it’s time for him to be fed, he happily trots into his kennel for his meal. At night, he sleeps in his kennel. He even lounges in his kennel during the day! Aza rides well in vehicles and will jump up into his riding spot and lay down quietly during transport. Easy-peasy. His favorite past times include rolling in the grass, getting belly rubs, napping, and chewing on bones and toys. He likes going for walks and sniffaris with his excellent nose. He appreciates affection, but is not demanding. His foster family has been teaching him how to swim; they ADORE Aza and would like to keep him, but they just adopted a different PJ’s Rescue dog, so Aza is still available. Aza plays well with other dogs after introductions are made, but he can have some reactivity towards random dogs. He is learning the “leave it” command on walks whenever encountering squirrels, rabbits, and barking dogs. He thrives with strong, fair, and consistent leadership. Aza doesn’t require any medications and has no known allergies. Aza does best with older children and able adults who can handle his size and power. He may be a bit too much around toddlers or younger kids. His compatibility with cats is unknown. Aza will form a strong bond with his family, while being bark-ready if strangers enter the home or yard. He settles quickly if the owner shows that a person belongs there. These are typical traits of the Cane Corso breed. If you’re looking for a straightforward and intelligent companion and have the experience to guide a powerful breed, Aza may be your perfect match.
