Cane Corso puppies and dogs in Trenton, New Jersey

Hi, I think Zeus would be good with a male owner. Someone who can provide him with attention and daily walks . He is a great dog. He likes consistency and lots of affection. My husband brought him home as a puppy. He passed away suddenly two weeks after. The kids and I have tried to raise Zeus but we are all so busy.

Sergio, lovingly known as Gio, is a 10–11 month old Cane Corso with a story that stays with you. Found as a stray in North Carolina and never reclaimed, he is one of the many dogs who slips through the cracks—and it’s something that never gets easier to understand. Because once you meet him, you immediately realize… this dog is everything. Loyal, affectionate, and full of life, Gio is the kind of dog who bonds deeply and loves hard. He is wonderful with other dogs, especially medium to giant breeds, and would do well either with a compatible canine companion or as your one-and-only. Truthfully, his favorite thing is his people—he thrives on connection, attention, and being part of your daily life. He has that classic Corso devotion, paired with a playful, goofy puppy energy that will keep you smiling. Due to that energy and his size, he would do best in a home with older, respectful children who understand how to interact with a large breed dog. Cats and small dogs are unknown at this time. Gio enjoys his walks, loves to run and stretch out in a yard, and is incredibly eager to please—he is the type of dog who wants to learn, wants to bond, and wants to be yours. With the right guidance and structure, he is going to grow into an exceptional companion. Because of his breed and size, a home is required—no apartments or rentals. A fenced yard is strongly preferred to give him the space he deserves to thrive. He is fully vetted, neutered, and ready to start his next chapter. Gio didn’t get claimed when he was lost—but we are determined to make sure he is chosen this time. The kind of chosen that lasts forever. If you are experienced with guardian breeds and ready for a loyal, powerful, and deeply loving companion, Sergio is waiting for you.

Meet Croque Monsieur, a big-hearted, energetic giant of a dog who’s as charming as he is playful! This 104-pound goofball loves people and thrives on attention, greeting new friends with soft eyes, wagging tails, and plenty of butt wiggles. Croque is highly food-motivated, which makes training fun—but he’s also a gentle “mouthy” lover who will playfully place a paw or a gentle nibble on your hand while seeking treats. Croque is full of energy and excitement, enjoying romps with tennis balls, frisbees, and Chuck-It toys, and he absolutely loves chasing anything that moves. He has a curious and social nature, happily sniffing around the yard and showing friendly interest in other dogs when introduced calmly. Because of his size, strength, and exuberance, Croque is best suited for experienced adopters with older teens (16+) or adults who understand large-breed behaviors. He does best with consistent structure, daily mental and physical enrichment, and a strong leash setup such as a front-clip or Freedom harness to manage his playful energy. Croque Monsieur is a giant puppy at heart—playful, loving, and endlessly enthusiastic. With the right family to match his energy and provide enrichment, he will bring endless joy, laughter, and companionship into your home.

Used a frisbee smeared with kibble and peanut butter to distract while we did a restrain free exam, vaccines and microchip. He was tolerant and very into the food. He would trade the frisbee for another treat when we would take breaks. Per staff 2/21/26: Best suited for a home with kids 16+ due to jumpy/mouthy behavior. Experienced adopters with large breed dogs and behaviors he is displaying along with the need for proper mental and physical stimulation. Younger kids ( 13+) may be considered depending on the situation. Per staff 2/21/26: Kennel Presentation: he was at the front of his kennel with big soft eyes, ears to the side and nub wagging which turned into his whole buttock wagging after giving him a treat. He took the treat gently. Leash Skills: hard to leash as he was trying to push past the door in an excitement manor. He's a big dog and pulls hard. Zig zagging through the kennels and outside. Will randomly pull in the direction he would like to go. It would be best to have him on a front clipping harness or better yet a freedom harness with a double leash for more control from the handler. Outside his nose was to the ground sniffing away. Body remained loose, with ears to the side and nub neutral. Sociability: very social boy who just has no idea he's 104 lbs. Croque would jump up (standing taller then 5ft on his hind legs) pawing at me or Dayna. He can get mouthy while it's gentle he hand my whole arm or hand in his mouth. Did bite at our treat pouches. food motivated and knows sit, however if you did not get it out fast enough then he became jumpy. Play: loved chasing after a big chuck it ball on a rope. Romping around with a tennis ball way too small for him. Will trade for treats. Dog Interaction: saw a small dog at a distance while walking in the yard, said small dog was barking at him and he just kept on sniffing. Met myrna through the bars with ears to the side, soft eyes and when they went nose to nose his nub started to wag. Return to Kennel: went right back into his kennel. Was a little difficult to unleash, used treats on the ground to removed the leash. Color Level: Exp Blue Recommendations and considerations: getting him on a harness to help with the pulling. Bring food with you as he is highly food motivated and ready to work. He's a giant puppy who needs routine and enrichment to work is mind!

Meet Baron, a 2‑month‑old Shepherd mix with a heart as big as the litter of eleven. Born to his devoted mom (Beverly), little Baron is surrounded by five sisters and five brothers—no wonder he adores people and other dogs so naturally. He’s a happy, playful little guy who lights up any room he toddles into. Whether he’s wrestling with his siblings or curling up in your lap, Baron brings joy everywhere he goes. He has received his first puppy vaccinations and will need to be neutered at the appropriate age.

Meet Mae, URGENT THIS SWEET GIRL WILL NOT DO WELL IN BOARDING, PLEASE HELP! 8 y/o - spayed (HW+ on treatment) apx 60 lbs No cats or very small dogs Foster says: Mae is a loving, loyal, and playful girl who was slated for euthanasia in an overcrowded NC shelter. Mae loves car rides and tearing apart stuffed toys. she always wants to be close by her person (but not quite on top of you). She knows basic commands and does well being bathed. She is well house trained and will communicate that she needs to go outside with restlessness, pointing, and whining. Mae is not vocal unless she has something she needs. She would love most to have access to a yard yet does wonderful in my apartment anyway. Most of her day is spent napping but she is quick to play with you when it is initiated despite her mild arthritis in her back legs. She is tolerant around other social dogs that are medium-large sized, but no small dogs, cats, etc. She will likely do best as the solo pet in the home in a calm, low-moderate activity household. Mae is currently located in a foster home in NC where she was saved and will be transported to the north/northeast when she has a forever home to go to, the foster is in school and can’t take with her. She need help fast! TEXT KAREN 4136298152
