UKC Announces Addition Of Another Recognized Breed | |
 The United Kennel Club, Inc. is excited to announce the addition of another recognized breed, the Cane Corso Italiano. The Cane Corso Italiano is an ancient breed, used by Italian farmers to herd and protect various livestock, hunt large game, and act as guardians over the farm. It is believed that the breed has remained pure and unspoiled on isolated Italian farms since Roman times. Based on the heritage and abilities of the Cane Corso Italiano, it has been placed in the Guardian group. We welcome the Cane Corso Italiano and their fanciers and look forward to seeing this exciting breed compete in UKC events.

Of the six breeds of UKC registered Coonhounds, only the Plott Hound doesn’t trace its ancestry to the foxhound; and of the breeds, we can be most certain of the Plott’s heritage and the men most responsible for its development.
The ancestors of today’s Plott were used for boar hunting in Germany many years ago. Jonathon Plott left his native Germany and came to this country in 1750. For the rest of the story behind the modern Plott Hound, follow this link. |
