Tova

Cane Corso

Homer, IL

Size

(when grown) X-Large 101 lbs (46 kg) or more

Details

Good with kids, Good with cats, Needs experienced adopter, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

We rescued Tova from a shelter when she was 6 months old. She is very protective and is bred for hunting so she needs to be watched around cats or smaller animals. We have two young children and she does well with them but listens most to the female adult of the house. We are needing to rehome her for no fault of her own. Our family has experienced health problems that hinder the ability to give her the attention and time she needs and deserves. She is a very active and very smart dog.
