- Weight gain or loss
- Exhaustion or reluctance to get up
Cane Corsos are large, energetic dogs that require a significant amount of physical activity and mental stimulation. Signs like restlessness or destructiveness often indicate inadequate exercise, while excessive fatigue could suggest over-exercising. Regular, balanced workouts tailored to their energy levels can prevent health issues and promote a happy life.
