    Tasso Catahoulas located in the California's Central Valley has some amazing Catahoulas Leopard dogs. The breed originated in Louisiana but has found a healthy home in California with Tasso. Cindy and her husband discovered the breed some forty years ago on their honey moon. It's been love affair for the couple with each other, as well as with the dogs.
    The Catahoulas is a baying dog, used for hunting, herding, and all around farm dog. This breed has put meat on many plates. They are a mix of Red Wolf, Dogs of War (Mastiffs), Beauceron, and Greyhound.

    We had a wonderful Catahoula named Scout. He was without a doubt the smartest dog I have ever seen. He was wise and confident also very eager to please. If you asked him just once not to do something he would NEVER do it again for the rest of his life. He understood everything said. He loved everyone and loved all animals too. He was our best friend. RIP Scouty we still miss you every day!

    I love the breed. My first encounter with one was when I was 12 Yrs old. My friend and I were riding bicycles one day and we got to the end of the road one day and this black monster of a dog came running out of the swamp. We both froze. Then out of the swamp we hear a man yell "Don't worry he likes kids." My friend yelled back "For lunch or dinner?" The dogs name was Tiger Paw cause of his big feet. He pretty much became my best friend. I used to visit him every day wrestle with him take him squirrel hunting fishing you name it. An awesome dog and some day I hope to find a black one just like him.

    I'm from and live in South Louisiana. Having a Catahoula is the most enjoyable dog experience you can have. We first received ours when he was about 4 weeks old and had survived a freezing night in November of 2006. He was about the size of TV remote when he came to us and what a BEAUTIFUL boy he grew up to be. Goldish tone with silver, black and grey splashes. We had never really new much about "Houlas" before but were amazed at the intelligence level and the loving nature that he had. Just a few days ago we lost Banshee at the age of 12 1/2 and the house is much quieter now and he will be missed greatly. Catahoulas are a talkative animal. He was always the one to get the house up and moving and living with 3 other dogs for most of his life, he was the one to wake you up early and everybody else. I can't imagine not having a Catahoula. Their personality and will to satisfy you are remarkable and companionship beyond any other animal I have ever had. Anybody wanting to get this type of dog will never regret it. Rest in Peace Banshee, you were an amazing boy.

But as f as r as other dogs hes very sweet with other dogs. But doesnt trust alot of men. But women he loves. We have a pit bull as well and they live each other. He sounds meaner then what he is tho. But any strangers hes not with it at all.

    I adopted a “yellow lab mix” from a SoCal shelter. As he decompressed in our household, he didn’t behave at all like any Lab I was familiar with - assertive, very mouthy and bite-y, boundless energy and stubborn as all get out. He also became imprinted on only me. He focuses on me so much that if I move anywhere around our home, he is compelled to keep within sight of me before settling down until I move again. I started to suspect he might be a Catahoula but only had met one around where I live. After all, they were bred for hunting and herding - not hanging around in an urban environment. After Embark confirmed he was 8010/10% Catahoula/Rott/Supermutt, I accepted the fact that he was going to be a serious project for his life time. Walking him 3-4 miles is nothing for my boy. The only activity that burns off his energy is chasing and herding other dogs at the dog park. I always forewarn other dog owners that despite his tenacity, he is not aggressive - just assertive - he likes to play rough. He’s good about backing off if a dog has had enough and becomes antagonistic. Having owned an Aussie, I am familiar with high energy working dogs. My hope is that this boy starts to calm down by the time he reaches his senior years so I can relax a bit!

      Im on the same boat. What I thought I bought from Craigslist was a Chocolate Lab pup. Well come 3 years later. I had a hutch he was not a Lab, never gained weight, green eyes, tons of energy, always by my side or my wife's. Very smart, loves to have me chase him around when he takes off with our shoes! But he's sweet, stubborn and not aggressive to other dogs or people. Might be too nice at times.. He has lots of room to run around outside but sometimes that's not enough but Wouldn't trade him for the world..

    I've had only one Catahoula and she was so dark blue that she looked black at a distance, had one preal blue eye and one brown eye, had me a litter of puppies at 14years old and still hunted hogs for me at 18 years of age but at 18 she could no longer break the larger pigs or smaller hogs hind leg which was her trademark if they were 60# or less and was only good for ranging out on the first bay in the morning the rest of the day she escorted me until the pack bayed again, as we followed the pack on our trackers throughout the river bottom swamps here in North Florida. After a full hunting season the first week of June I went over to my dog property and found my Lady Bug dead. I doubt there will never be another one like her, in my lifetime any ways.

      I think I got one I spotted a handsome puppy and she was sitting by a trailer near where I live and she was going to go wandering out in the road. So I coaxed her back onto her property and put her back on the lead and attached her back to her dog house and then I went and talked to the people about her because she was loose again the next day and I said I will take her if you don't want her. I already have a Belgian Malinois he's a grown up and he's a little bit dog aggressive. So I had a little trepidation cuz she still a puppy. But I introduced them and I worked with them and I kept them separated it important times and then put them back together again let him play Then separated him again and again and then put them back together again fed them together very carefully and then didn't feed them together basically back and forth up and down round and round. And he's only nipped at her hard once because she kept annoying him and he had his favorite toy. So I put the toy up! He can't have it it's locked in her cage. I gave him something else and she's back playing with him again. He's a little annoyed. But he's going for it. (Playing NICE ENOUGH!) I think that I have a Catahoula here at first I thought when I saw her that she was a Heeler and then I thought maybe another kind of hound like a Blue Tick Hound? But, the more I look at her, the more I watch her behavior, assess her coat and eye color and everything, I think I do have a Leopard Catahoula. I named her "Karma" to go with "Kai" my Belgian Malinois. I think it is just wonderful that a very nice puppy got a new home and new friends. In FACT SHE IS "WARTING" KAI SEVERELY RIGHT NOW! LOLS😉

    My second dog was a Catahoula, he was a big on too. Best dog I ever had. (Also known as Spirit Dogs), I had nightmare one time, where there was a shadow figure standing in the doorway. I woke up and my dog Boomer was standing in front of my doorway in-between where that shadow figure was standing and he was growling and after that I never heard him growl like that ever again.

      They are working dogs. Learning commands need to start at an early age. My 2 freyja and Thor are great, I'll never own another breed. I take them out every day to hunt squirl and I've found they're great for duck hunting. As long as you take the time to train them, they won't do anything you mentioned. I wish freyja and Thor would lay around more, but it's nice to have active dogs that behave and keep me on my toes.

    this an exquisite dog. Its so refreshing and nice to see a well built, healthy dog. instead of seeing overbred and disproportional animals. and refreshing to hear this woman talk honestly about the breed. speaking about them being possibly aggressive on their own property and not standing strange dogs in their faces. this sounds like many pits Ive owned. But so many focus on changing the thought of pits they wont admit they can be territorial and aggressive in certain situations if not socialized, trained, and as she said owner is smarter than dog

      I love Pitties. My Catahoula has actually "adopted" one of my Pit Bull Mastiff "puppies" (she's 3 now but she will always be a puppy to me hahaha). She doesn't tolerate the brother Pibble as much, but she will mostly just tell him to fuck off and he does. But she has known them since birth pretty much. My Catahoula hasn't had puppies of her own, but when I took in both a pregnant Bull Mastiff and Pit Bull Terrier, she acted like a second mom. I even caught her trying to nurse both litters. 😭❤

  • @DS-rv1tj

    My girl lived until she was 15. She has been gone for 5 years and I miss her everyday. I know this sounds crazy, but she could say a handful of words including my son's name, "mom" and "no"! She loved her vet and once the vet said she needed to drop 10 lbs. She observed the entire conversation intently and returned home and put herself on a portion control diet. She would eat half of her food in the am and half in the pm and she in fact dropped 10 lbs. We adopted her from a rescue as a 4 month old pup and had many beautiful years together. What a grateful, intelligent loyal family pet she was! She adored my kids and considered herself one of them. It was tough watching her age. Glucosamine and chondroitin chewables are a MUST for this breed for hip health and arthritis. She used to get 3 every morning after her walk and she would count them. I know this because if we were ever short, she'd look frantically around for it, look up at us and go back to searching. If your catahoula is still living, enjoy them every day. It goes by way too fast.

He is helping me recover from an accident because he demands we get outside. If we can’t get outside we have some inside games. Unlike some of the Catahoula dogs he is very affectionate. Because of the accident I had a few years back I had a fear of walking in the evening. With my Catahoula friend I have been able to continue my evening walks again. It’s also a plus that he has connected with all of us. We can all share in his care while he takes care of us.

He "hurds" the neighborhood kids when they stray too far away from the neighborhood parties. He is super smart and loves learning new tasks! At 13.5 years old, he still enjoys getting out for 3 miles a day of exercise and chasing squirrels in the back yard!

    Love my catahoulas, I have 3. One is a tracker, one a woods dog and the third herds. My tracker was used in search and rescue and did great! Gotta keep them busy for sure. Catahoulas are also tree climbers. We had to raise the height of our fence. One of mine would climb a tree to jump over the fence! Catahoulas are not for everyone!!!

He's ok with strangers but always looks to me for the ok. Gets along very well with my older dog and is kind of just a goofy dog. Love em!

  • @bezerkura6e715
    @bezerkura6e715 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    My catahoula saved me. He is my best buddy. He keeps me active and he has some peculiar quirks. He loves thunderstorms. When it's thundering and he's outside he just runs non stop barking. If he sees a reflection of light, whether it's something off a pan or a flash light, he will bark and want to catch the light spot. I've only seen cats react like that. I take him to the dog park every day. Some dogs he allows to do the greetings, some he gives them a little quick nudge to back off. Ones who are very timid and show submission he sometimes will go in Bay mode. Only a couple times in 3 years has there been real incidents. He has never drew blood. I've had dogs all my life but I don't consider him a dog. He's so darn smart and loyal. I love him like a child. And will do anything for him. I'm glad they have long life spans. Not sure his age, he was a rescue.

    We got our first Catahoula two and a half years ago. Abby worked out so well. We fell in love with the breed. So we got another one. Very different personalities and very different body types. Abby has the greyhound body type. Annie has the body type of the red wolf. They are beautiful.

  • @CB-sn9vf
    @CB-sn9vf 6 ปีที่แล้ว +8

    Love this breed as an active person with time to spare. My Catahoula can jump a six foot fence without a pause and she's fast enough to catch bunnies and squirrels without a problem. Though her energy is incredible, she's got to get a fast three mile run (if not more) in everyday or she goes crazy. Mine isn't much of a barker and is a great cuddle buddy after enough exercise. I wouldn't recommend this breed for anyone with children or who loves small dogs, prey drive is high and smart enough to open doors. Once I was surprised by a man jumping out of the bushes on one of our runs and she stepped between us with her haunches high in the air, snarled, and scared the man off. Perfect for protection, but not fearful of strangers: unless you are.

    One of my grandpuppies is a Catahoula and does she ever fill the bill! Maisey is highly intelligent, competitive and willful. She has to be crated when her family leaves home because she climbs onto the table and countertops, and gets into cabinet doors and drawers. She eats pencils, crayons, shoes, anything... but she is a sweet girl all the same. If she gets into trouble, she tries to smile to make amends and her smile is so creepy, kinda half grimace, that I have to laugh. She cracks me up everytime!
