I was very afraid of dogs until my husband introduced me to Cane Corso from the Italian Mastiff breed name Zeus at eight weeks. Zeus was one of the most loving, compassionate, caring, protective yet gentle. Unfortunately, at nine-month we notice a scratch to the side of his forehead and I asked my husband to take him to the vet. The vet prescribed Zeus some pills. We gave him one and the next morning we found him dead next to our dresser where he sleeps every night. On that fatal morning, I lost a great guy. My heart is still breaking today every time I talk about him. I've felt this kind of sadness in a long time. He gives me so much unconditional love without asking anything in returns. I treasure him and carry him in my heart daily. I shared with you so you can understand that I know your dogs are priceless and that they are more than a pet but your family. And as such I will treat them with extreme love and care.
