The AKC calls the Cane Corso assertive, confident and a peerless protector, from a lineage back to ancient Rome. A big, steady dog does best with a calm, simple routine at drop-off.
A tall dog needs floor
Because weight is not fixed in the AKC description, size by height and build. A male near 27 inches is a heavy dog, and First Class gives about 48 square feet inside and 72 outside. A smaller female may be comfortable in Business Class at $59. Tell us your dog's weight when you book.
Coat
The coat is short, stiff and dense. AKC rates shedding at 2 of 5, light. The bath price depends on weight, not height: on the 2024 chart, 76 to 100 pounds is $50 and over 100 is $65 in the Short column. Please ask to confirm.
Confidence and care at drop-off
AKC rates energy at 4 of 5. Strong, loyal dogs can be wary of strangers, so leave your Corso in the car at check-in while paperwork is done, and the staff will walk him in on a leash. A short intro tour is welcome any day 9 to 11 AM or 2 to 4 PM.
Heat
A big, dark dog heats up in the afternoon. About 28 days a year top 100 degrees in nearby Vacaville's NOAA normals. Outdoor time in the mornings and evenings, and the air-conditioned inside half the rest of the day.
Cost examples
A week in First Class is 7 x $72 on the 2026 rates, and 14 nights or more is $65 a night. A smaller female in Business Class is $59. Two Corsi from one home share First Class for $72 plus $61.
Food and medicine
Large-breed diets are welcome in the original bag with cups written down. Medications are given at no extra charge.
Tour first
Walk the property before the stay. Tours are every day 9 to 11 AM and 2 to 4 PM, no appointment.
Records and paperwork
A boarding agreement is signed once, even with an online account. Vaccine records for rabies, distemper/parvo and Bordetella must be good through the last day. Canine influenza is recommended but not required. Neutered or intact, all breeds are welcome.
