Katerina, now known as Chloe, is an 8-month-old Cane Corso with a classic puppy spirit—big energy, a bold personality, and a whole lot of love to give. She’s already quite tall and still growing, so she’s going to be a big, powerful girl who will need continued structure, supervision, and consistent training to help her grow into a well-mannered adult.

Like many puppies, Chloe gets excited and may jump, but the good news is she’s very responsive and listens immediately to a clear, timely “no.” She’s smart, curious, and always looking to learn—sometimes a little too curious, especially when it comes to unattended countertops! With guidance and consistency, she’s eager to please and quick to catch on.

Chloe is also quite the athlete and an experienced escape artist. She can jump baby gates and lower fences, so a securely fenced yard and close supervision are a must. In her foster home, she lives comfortably with a 6-foot fence, which she has not attempted to jump. Her future family should be mindful of her strength and agility and ensure all barriers are sturdy and secure.

She is crate-trained for bedtime and when her foster mom is away. She may need a few treats to encourage her to go in, but once settled—especially with the TV softly playing—she relaxes well. Chloe does require a heavy-duty kennel, as she can bend standard foldable crates.  While she doesn’t chew household items, she will try to pull anything within reach into her crate.

When she’s not roughhousing, Chloe is a total sweetheart. She loves to cuddle and enjoys being close to her people and her canine companions. She adores tug-of-war and wrestling and would do well with a playful dog who can match her energy or a calm, laid-back dog who prefers to nap. Chloe is respectful of calmer dogs and happily adjusts her behavior, choosing to cuddle when that’s what they prefer. She currently lives with both types of foster siblings and adapts beautifully to each.

Like many puppies, Chloe highly values her food, treats, and bones. She would do best enjoying these in a private space away from other animals to prevent any potential issues. She has never shown aggression toward people and has tremendous potential to become a loyal, loving companion in the right home.

Chloe will thrive with an adopter who understands large-breed puppies and is committed to ongoing training, structure, and supervision. While she could be a good fit for a first-time giant-breed owner, it’s important that her adopter is willing to learn, stay consistent, and invest time into proper training and management. A securely fenced yard is strongly recommended, and a home that can provide both physical outlets and affectionate downtime will help her shine.

With guidance, patience, and love, Chloe has all the makings of an incredible companion—devoted, affectionate, and full of personality.
