READ CAREFULLY BEFORE PROCEEDING
Please think carefully about your decision before you decide to take on the responsibility
and ownership that is required to care for a Cane Corso puppy before placing a deposit.
These dogs require a stable environment and a lot of love and care. Our top priority is
finding the best homes possible for our puppies, so we take this process seriously. We want
to ensure that our Cane Corsos are matched with families who are fully prepared for the
challenges and joys of owning this breed.
Here are some questions to ask yourself before making a decision:
Are you willing to thoroughly assess whether the Cane Corso is a good fit for your family and lifestyle?
Have you done adequate research on the breed's history?
Have you spoken with multiple breeders?
Have you spent time with Cane Corsos of both genders?
Are you ready to commit to appropriate training?
Are you prepared to put in the effort and work through any challenges that may arise?
Will you stay in contact with us and make every effort to find a new home for your puppy or adult dog if you are no longer able to keep him or her, rather than resorting to a shelter or euthanasia?
If you cannot confidently answer yes to these questions, it is likely that the Cane Corso is not the right breed for you.
H & H Deputee Cane Corso Italiano reserves the right to decline a deposit or payment if we feel that our puppy would not have a good home. Please keep in mind that a deposit secures a puppy for you, but it does not guarantee that we will sell you a specific puppy if we do not believe it is a good match for your family or if your family is not a good match for the puppy's temperament. We value building long-term relationships and maintaining open communication with all of our new families. Our puppies are a part of our family, and we want to see them thrive in a loving, committed, and well-prepared home.
Price
We breed with purposeful intent with quality being paramount over quantity. Because of this, we produce a small amount of litters each year that are offered only to APPROVED families. We maintain a reservation (waitlist) of families who wish to own a H & H Deputee puppy of their own.
FAMILY COMPANION puppies are sold with no registration and no litters produced by our family companion puppies are eligible for AKC, ICCF or any other kennel club registration in the event your male or female dog produces offspring (a puppy litter). This helps protect our breeding program. Companion puppies (Male & Female) are sold based on a first-come, first-serve basis. A minimum $500 USD non-refundable reservation deposit is required to hold a spot.
* PRICES RANGE FROM $2,500 USD - $2,800 USD
TOP PROSPECT/ IMPORTED PARENTS FROM ITALY (Male & Female) are offered with Full Kennel Registration which includes breeding rights. "Top prospects" refers to conformation to breed standard. Top prospects are secured by a minimum $700 USD non-refundable reservation deposit to hold the spots.
* PRICES RANGE FROM $3,200 USD - $3,600 USD
General
Please be certain that you are ready for the time commitment and financial responsibility of a puppy prior to placing a deposit on one. The Cane Corso needs a stable environment with a lot of love and care. We want our Cane Corsos to go to the very best homes possible and therefore we take placing our puppies very seriously. This is a life-time commitment between a family and their new puppy.
The Cane Corso is a large dominant independent breed and is NOT for everyone. Ask yourself: Are you willing to assess whether this breed is a good FIT for your family and lifestyle? Have you done your homework and researched the breed's history? Have you spoken to several breeders? Have you brought your family around Cane Corsos of both genders? Have you made plans for appropriate training? Are you ready for the long-haul and prepared to make it work when things get tough? Are you willing to stay in contact with the breeder and make every attempt to rehome a puppy/adult that you cannot keep for whatever reason rather than condemning him/her to a shelter or worst yet, putting him/her down? If you cannot answer these questions with a solid "YES", then the Cane Corso is probably NOT for you.
H & H Deputee Cane Corso Italiano reserves the right to refuse deposit and or payment if we feel our puppy would not have a good home. Your deposit reserves a puppy for you, however, it does not guarantee that we will sell you a particular puppy if we feel the temperament is not a good match for your family, or your family is not a good match for the puppy. H & H Deputee would like to build a life-time relationship and have open communication with all its new families. Our puppies are our family and we want to see them thrive with a loving, committed and well-equipped family.
All H & H Deputee Cane Corso Italiano Cane Corso puppies are sold on a contract, with a 18-month health guarantee (see sample contract PDF below). Remitting a deposit means you have agreed to H & H Deputee sales policy and will agree to the terms therein. This contract is written for the protection of both the breeder and the buyer. However, it is primarily written to protect the health and general well-being of the puppy.

Deposits
RESERVATION DEPOSIT a $500 USD (for companion pups) or $750 (for top prospects) non-refundable deposit is required to reserve a puppy and applied towards the balance, reducing the original total quoted cost. The reservation deposit makes the pup unavailable to other approved prospective families. Deposits may be transferred to another litter under certain conditions. A pup is NOT considered RESERVED until the full reservation deposit is remitted.
Deposits/Partial payments are non-refundable and are applied to your account. Please be certain that you are ready for the time commitment and financial responsibility of a puppy prior to placing a deposit on one. H & H Deputee Cane Corso Italiano grants no warranty over size, gender, colors or temperament produced in a litter. If a planned litter does not take place or the litter does not produce the expected number of pups, we will transfer your deposit to another litter.
PLEASE NOTE:
The outstanding balance must be paid when the puppy reaches 6 weeks of age. This also allows H & H Deputee Cane Corso Italiano the opportunity to begin ear crops & micro-chips (if elected) and prepare the puppy package and paperwork.
If not paid or if an agreed-upon arrangement is not made, the puppy will be offered to another family, the original deposit and any additional funds will be forfeited and not transferred to a new litter.
If not paid by 6 weeks of age, and the puppy buyer desires a puppy from a future litter, said puppy buyer would have to pay in Full for his selection to be held.
If for any reason a puppy is not available from a litter you applied the deposit towards, said deposit may be transferred to another litter or puppy in a future breeding with AVAILABLE reservation spots.
Payment Plans
PARTIAL PAYMENTS we understand that acquiring a quality Cane Corso is a significant expense. Therefore, families may make partial payments after their initial minimum reservation deposit of $500 USD up until the puppy reaches 6 weeks of age.
Many families choose this option as an approach to manage the total cost and avoid a lump sum payment due at 6 weeks of age. Each family's account is credited and their invoices are generated reflecting the partial payments. There is NO cost or obligation associated with making partial payments.
