About us

At Corsarii, we are more than just breeders—we are a whānau (family) dedicated to preserving the integrity, strength, and working ability of the Cane Corso. Rooted in Māori values, we believe in manaakitanga—caring for others as we would our own. Every puppy we raise is treated as part of our family, nurtured with love, respect, and the training needed to fulfill their true potential.

Our breeding program is focused on producing high-quality pedigree Cane Corso with the working traits of the original breed. Our dogs have been carefully selected for their intelligence, loyalty, and high drive, making them ideal for working, hunting, search and rescue, and protection. We are also committed to breeding for superior body structure, ensuring that each Corso is built for the tasks it was meant to perform.

"Corsarii Kennels is about honoring heritage, building loyalty, and raising Cane Corso with heart and purpose."

Our Home & Lifestyle

Located in the Bombay Hills, South of Auckland, our Corsos have over 6 acres of farmland to explore, train, and thrive. We have created a dedicated dog adventure area, designed to stimulate their minds and develop their physical abilities. Our puppies grow up surrounded by babies, children, and daily family life, ensuring they are well-socialized and ready to become a valued member of your whānau.

As passionate Cane Corso enthusiasts, we are committed to raising dogs with strong genetics and even stronger temperaments. We are proud members of the New Zealand Kennel Club (NZKC) and follow their strict breeding guidelines to ensure the long-term health and success of our bloodline.

Our Commitment to You

We encourage all future Cane Corso owners to choose a responsible, registered breeder—someone who is committed to the welfare of the breed.

Every puppy from our kennel comes with:

✔ NZKC registration papers

✔ Their first set of vaccinations (with guidance on the next two)

✔ A specially curated puppy pack—filled with essentials and items we’ve personally found useful through years of experience

But our relationship doesn’t end when you take your puppy home. We offer ongoing support and guidance, ensuring that you and your Corso build a lifelong bond based on trust, respect, and understanding.
