The objective in training this dog is for the master of the dog to be just that. The owner must been seen by their dog as the pack leader. If the dog assumes that status it will lead to traouble!. It is a natural instinct for a dog to have an order in their pack. When we humans live with dogs, we become their pack.
A dog when pack leader will see his owner as a subordinate and this can lead to times when he/she will communicate displeasure with growling and eventually biting, and also with this breed all other humans in contact with the dog must be higher up in the order than the dog.
The dog owner and indeed all the co-habitees within the family must be the ones making the decisions, not the animals. That is the only way in which any relationship with a dog can be a complete success. This applies more strongly than for most breeds with this breed.
Having said that though this breed is often called the King of the stock dog breeds, the most enduring dog with the longest stamina. Tjese dogs are said to outwork and outfight all other breeds of stock dogs when protecting their master, livestock, and property.
This is not surprising as they are by rebute the largest and most aggressive of the cattle dogs, capable of handling wild cattle and hogs in the roughest, most remote country. Catahoulas will also hunt coon, bear, or whatever else they are introduced to. Exercise tyem well and allow them room to roam during exercise or you may find that things do not go well with yur dog.
The preferred size range for these dogs is from 20-26", weight 50-90 lbs, with a few individuals larger although most males average 60-70 lbs in lean working condition, & about 24" tall. Short haired, long tail, natural flop ear (like a Dalmatian ear), they come in every color of the rainbow, but are best known for a blue/grey base with black/liver spots ("blue Leopard"), tan legs and face, white toes and chest. Many variations on this general pattern. Spots occur in all colors. Blue/glass or parti-colored "marbled" or "cracked"eyes are common in every litter. Often a dog will have eyes of two different colors.
The Catahoula Cur or Louisiana Catahoula Leopard Dog, is named after Catahoula Parish in the state of Louisiana in the United States. Of remaining dog breeds, the Catahoula is believed to have occupied North America the longest, aside from the dogs descended from Native American-created breeds. The breed is sometimes incorrctly referred to as the "Catahoula Hound" or "Catahoula Leopard Hound", as it is not a hound, but a Cur.
The Catahoula Leopard Dog is just one of the great dog breeds at the Dog Breeds Compendium web site. Take a visit now! Or how about a lively blog to visit? Take a look at the Dog and Puppy News Theraputic Dog Beds blog page now! |
