I currently own a Cane Corso and what my vet told me now and also what I have always been told is that Eukanuba brand dog food is the best you can get. Every vet I've gone to has told me that. And as long as you follow the feeding guide on the back your dog will be just fine. As far as toys go, my corso shreds anything and everything I have ever given her, but if I am watching her I can tell her not to shred a toy and she doesn't.
Also, when I was younger I used to have two newfoundlands. They were fed Eukanuba their entire lives and both lived to be just under 12 years old. Average Newfoundland life span in 9 to 10. Our female was 125 pounds, and our male was 155.
I hope this helps, and if it doesn't just ignore it.

I have an american bulldog and another bully mix (not sure what yet, she is huge and only 4 months old) and have fostered pits before. plenty of compressed rawhides, but only given under supervision as they will try to swollow. compressed rawhides are better than regular though, they can usually only get off small chuncks. They LOOOVE frozen bones. WE have a specialty store here that sells raw frozen bones, you will get a mixed opinion on reg ham/beef bones, they love those also. Kong toys or the bad cuz toys are the best rubber toys, they don't go through them as fast. They love stuffed animals but they don't usualy last the day. AS far as food, my american bulldog has very sensative skin and even arrived w/ a bauld spot that has cleared w/ the use of special soap and nutro lamb and rice large breed food. they have a puppy food also. There is even better more expensive stuff than that, but it works for my dogs. He was also starved and he has put on over 25 lbs in the year that I go him. He just turned 2 and is very happy

Ask the breeder what food they are currently feeding, and buy that. If in the future you wish to switch brands do it gradually by mixing them together for a while. If you switch foods right away it may upset his tummy.
