“In 48 BCE, as the mighty Julius Caesar conquered the lands of Rome, he made his way to Egypt to meet the legendary Queen Cleopatra. Their political alliance was one of the most powerful in history, but Caesar, ever the strategic thinker, wanted to give Cleopatra a gift—something that symbolized strength, loyalty, and the fierce protection that would bond their kingdoms together.

At the grand palace in Alexandria, Julius Caesar presented Cleopatra with a gift unlike any other: three majestic Cane Corso dogs. These dogs, known for their power, courage, and unshakable loyalty, were the perfect symbol of the relationship between Caesar and Cleopatra. The Cane Corso, a breed renowned for its guarding instincts and fearless protection, became a living emblem of their union—a promise of loyalty and protection that would last for centuries.

“These dogs are as fierce and loyal as the alliance we now share, Cleopatra.” Caesar declared, his voice strong and commanding. “May they guard you as steadfastly as I will guard our future.”

Cleopatra, deeply moved by the gift, accepted the dogs with grace. They became not just her protectors, but a symbol of the bond between Rome and Egypt, a bond built on trust, strength, and mutual respect.”

At Cleopatra’s Corsos, located in Virginia, we are dedicated to breeding exceptional Cane Corso dogs that embody strength, loyalty, and protection. Inspired by our passion for this magnificent breed, we believe every Cane Corso is more than a pet—they’re loyal family members.

As military and police veterans, we uphold the highest standards of discipline and responsibility in our breeding program. Our puppies are raised in a loving environment that nurtures their protective instincts, intelligence, and loyalty, making them ideal companions and guardians.

Our journey began with Rip, our stud, raised on a 13-acre ranch in Hawaii, where he developed a calm temperament and friendly demeanor. After a global search, we found his perfect match, Moana, a nurturing and protective female raised in Virginia. Together, Rip and Moana bring balance and excellence to our breeding program.

At Cleopatra’s Corsos, we strive to educate families about the unique needs of Cane Corsos, helping them build strong bonds with these remarkable dogs. Thank you for considering us as you welcome the unmatched loyalty of a Cane Corso into your life!
