Story
They say Rome wasn’t built in a day… 🇮🇹
But this Rome? She was apparently built to be beautiful, ridiculous, affectionate, playful and approximately the size of a small Italian villa. ❤️
Ciao, amici! 🇮🇹🐾
My name is Rome, and yes, I know what you’re thinking. 💭
A Cane Corso named Rome?
Honestly, my name is pretty perfect. ☺️
The Cane Corso is an Italian breed with roots in the working dogs of southern Italy, known historically for being loyal, versatile protectors.
And then there’s me…
Well… I apparently took the “protector” part and decided I would rather protect everyone from having a bad day. 😉 Because I LOVE people. Everyone is my friend. I LOVE dogs.
Big dogs, little dogs, puppies… I don’t discriminate. If you have four legs and want to play, we are probably going to be best friends. 😏
And puppies? Oh, I absolutely adore them.
I’ve become a little mama figure to my foster siblings, and I’m happiest when I have another dog around. I love playing, wrestling, running around and, most importantly, being chased.
I also have a very serious relationship with tennis balls and rope toys. 🎾🪢
I’ll bring my toy to you. You throw it. I bring it back. You throw it again. Eventually you will realize that you have accidentally signed up for a full time position as my personal entertainment director. 🎬
But as much as I love to play, I have another side that might be even sweeter. 🧁 I want to be beside you. On the couch, Next to you, wherever you are!
You have pillows? Excellent. I will arrange them into my own personal little fortress and sleep on top of them like the queen I am. 👑
And if you happen to be sitting there? Well, obviously I should be touching you. My foster mom says I want to be the little spoon. 🥄
Which is adorable ☺️ Except I am a Cane Corso. I am a GIANT little spoon. 🥄 I truly have no idea how big I am. I am just a giant teddy bear 🧸 with a very soft heart ♥️
I’m also the kind of girl who makes those deep, dramatic Rottie noises. 🙃 I know, I’m a Cane Corso. But apparently somewhere along the way, a Rottweiler snuck into my vocal cords. 😂
So if you hear me grumbling and making my little Rottie noises, don’t worry. That’s just my Italian accent. 🇮🇹
And my personality? Chefs kiss 🧑🍳💋
I’m friendly, I’m confident, I’m affectionate,
I’m playful, I’m calm when it’s time to relax,
I’m silly when it’s time to play, I adjust beautifully to my people, And everyone seems to be my favorite person.
I’m house trained, crate trained, fantastic on a leash, wonderful in the car and I have excellent house manners. I know “sit.” I know “come.” And I’m currently working on “give me a kiss.” Honestly, I think I’m doing pretty well. 💋
I’m also very treat motivated, 🦴 so I’m always open to continuing my education. 🎓
I believe strongly in lifelong learning. 🧠
Especially if snacks are involved. 🍪
My dream home is A family who will love me for the giant, goofy, affectionate girl I am.
A family who understands my breed and wants to continue giving me the structure, training and companionship I need.
And preferably… A DOG friend or more!
I really love having another dog around, and I would be happiest with a canine best friend to share my adventures, playtime and naps. ☺️
I’d love a family who wants to walk with me, explore with me, play with me and then come home and pile up on the couch. 🛋️ Because I am equally talented at adventure 🏕️and absolutely doing nothing.💤 And if you’re wondering whether I’m a gentle giant or a class clown 🤡 The answer is yes.
Very much yes.
I may have the impressive head, powerful build and noble look of a Cane Corso, but underneath all of that is a goofy 🙃 girl who thinks everyone is a friend, every dog is a potential playmate and every couch is an invitation to cuddle. 🤗
They say Rome wasn’t built in a day. 🇮🇹
Maybe that’s true, But this Rome has already built something pretty special…
A very big heart. ❤️
Now all I need is someone to help me build the rest of my story. 📖
La mia famiglia per sempre. 🇮🇹🐾
My forever family.
And I promise… There will be plenty of love, plenty of laughter, plenty of goofy Rottie noises… And probably a very large dog taking up approximately 97% of your couch. 🫣
I’m Rome And I’m ready to be your girl. 🇮🇹
Ciao, amici! Until next time 😉
