For Dog Only

The Catahoula Leopard dog is an intelligent, energetic, hard working dog with a long history in farming and hunting. Sometimes criticized as an aggressive dog, they are best described as aggressive workers because they have a work ethic and strong love to work, but it is also true that they are very wary of strangers.

The Catahoula temperament is not suitable for everyone and these dogs are very protective of their territory and family, especially the males, but they are gentle and kind to other dogs when on neutral ground.

It is these characteristics, combined with their independence, high energy level and physical strength, can make a Catahoula become much to handle for any some owners who are inexperienced or lack confidence, or enough energy or force to discipline their dogs properly, and can have such a dog problem. This may be especially true for those who live in apartments and small spaces. Also the CCD does not well when they are connected to a runner or placed in a kennel. It is better to recognize that you will need to spend much time with this breed and avoid to leave the dog for a full work day. Eight hours of you leaving the house may be just too long for this creature normally active and energetic.

The Catahoula Leopard Dog is also generally too independent-minded to be the ideal training partner for the trainer very competitive. On the other hand, for someone who wants a powerful, and exceptionally capable companion to the CDC may go swimming to climbing trees in one foot (seriously, look at the pictures on the internet).

The Catahoula has no equal when it comes to driving cattle.

The eyes of the CDC may be brown, blue, turquoise, green, gold or any combination of these colors in one eye, which is called "cracking" or eyes two different colors in total! Eye color may vary often in a different color in each eye. Given the diversity of these traits, it is difficult to predict which characteristics will dominate.

Catahoula are naturally protective of what and who they think they own. In fact, many owners say that the Catahoula owns. Catahoula is a dominant breed by nature, so you should always be in control! They are also very territorial, and not always descriminate between friend or foe, so I do not recommend leaving a Catahoula dog or elsewhere, free courses unattended.

Research on the origins of its name suggests the name may be attributed to poor pronunciation or insult the word "Couthaougoula" Choctaw meaning. This word has been used to describe the Indians or their dogs, ready to infer that the Indians are not any better than his dog.

A Catahoula with a light gray or beige coat spotting in May were almost identical to that of the leopard. It is a theory that this was the result of natural selection in this camouflage, he is particularly effective in low-light, the overcast conditions.

A must have CLD hair short and unique, the median drop ears, feet larger with thick pads and toes well defined, and an athletic build, but muscular. Catahoula have deep chest, a clear Tuck on the side, and fairly long, straight legs.

Breeder Web, unlike other sites, does not serve as an intermediary between the person who wants to find puppies for sale and the person who gave birth to their puppies Catahoula Leopard Dog.

If you are looking to buy this breed of dog to get out of your way to make sure you buy from a breeder human right and not a breeder Dog breeds that more than three types of dogs, as this tends to point breeders who focus less on the dog and more profit.

Be aware, seeing dogs for sale on the internet that although buying a puppy through a single website may be tempting, it is generally unwise.

Dog breeders advertise their puppies and dogs for sale in the directory of breeders and classified ads. Remember that farmers know their dog breed the best and should be able to give you the temperament of their puppies and any special care needs of specific race. Take your time you make a commitment that will last a decade or more.
