Our Program
At Light Em Up Kennels, we believe every Cane Corso should serve a purpose. Our breeding program is focused on producing well-rounded dogs that excel in structure, temperament, athleticism, and working ability while remaining loyal family companions.
We carefully select our breeding dogs with the goal of preserving and improving the Cane Corso breed through responsible breeding practices, sound temperaments, and performance.
We are dedicated to preserving the true purpose of the Cane Corso by breeding dogs that can perform, compete, protect, and represent the breed with excellence both in the show ring and in everyday life.
Utility Dogs
The Cane Corso was originally developed as a versatile working breed and we strive to maintain those natural instincts. Our dogs are bred to be capable of performing a variety of tasks while remaining stable and reliable companions.
AKC FastCat
Athleticism is an important part of our program. Through AKC FastCat events, our dogs demonstrate their speed, drive, and physical conditioning. We believe a Cane Corso should not only look impressive but also possess the athletic ability to perform.
AKC Conformation
Correct structure is the foundation of a capable working dog. We participate in conformation events to evaluate our dogs against the Cane Corso breed standard and ensure we are producing dogs that represent the strength, balance, movement, and type the breed is known for.
Protection Work
The Cane Corso has a long history as a guardian breed. We value stable nerves, confidence, courage, decision-making. Our dogs are trained for working ability and protective instincts while maintaining the sound temperament necessary to be trustworthy family companions.
