I am sure many of you are aware that back yard breeders are becoming a serious problem for the Cane Corso and the number of these guys turning up in shelters is getting out of control. The Philadelphia area has gotten very bad and the rate Cane Corsos are being dumped in shelters is getting scary. With that being said, I wanted to get the word out about a newly formed Cane Corso rescue called Big Paws Big Hearts Cane Corso Rescue. Big Paws is going to be local to just the Philadelphia area to start cleaning up the Corso scene and also educating the public on our breed and the importance of avoiding back yard breeders. I would encourage all of you to check out the Big Paws Big Hearts Cane Corso Rescue website;
www.bigpawsbigheartsrescue.com. Some of the site is still under construction, but it should be finished shortly. There is a donation page already sent up there and every little bit helps. Big Paws spent 3 days this past weekend at the Pet Expo in King of Prussia and it was a great success. The turnout was huge and the Big Paws Big Hearts booth generated a ton of positive interest not only in the rescue, but also in the breed. If you are in the Philadelphia area we do need your help. We need volunteers for various aspects of the rescue such as fostering, transport, help at events, and donations. Even if you are not in the Philly area donations either big or small is a great way of showing your support and your love for the Cane Corso breed. Please check out the website above and you can also drop in an email for more information untill the site is fully up and running. The email address is
info@bigpawsbigheartsrescue.com or you can call (610) 400-1135. You can also
