Labahoula

She’s just amazing She friendly with other dogs and good with cats just curious she A little timid with humans at first but she’ll warm up and the biggest baby in the world!!!!

My labahoula is super energetic, and loves people!

Lovable, excitable,Good with children got Kobe at 8weeks has grown with the children.Loves to run and chase a ball odor frisbe.

Ezzie is about 10 weeks old. She’s super sweet, so so smart and is almost potty trained. We got her at 7 1/2 weeks old. She loves to cuddle and I call her my Pareot dog because right now she loves to cuddle up on my shoulder and sleep. She’s already sleeping through the night. Super energetic, she loves chasing balls but is working on bringing them back. Her temperament is amazing, she craves human contact. Most of the time she’s curled up under my desk or right beside me while I work during the day. She loves playing with our other pups also. She’s the perfect pup.

only have her for less than a week so far things are good. Training in progress. cuddly and Sweet

He is protective and highly energetic. He also sheds and eats a lot. He dislikes fighting and breaks them up. He is a very loving dog but sometimes he makes questionable choices.

Sandy is very loving and a vocal dog. Guess Catahoulas are known for the grunting and making weird noises trying to talk to you. She can be very stubborn when it comes to training so you definitely have to show her who's boss. She absolutely loves other dogs and especially kids! Will retrieve and swim all day if you can keep throwing something for her. But when it comes to squirrels, armadillos or possums they better be quick because if she catches them its over with. Also I can attest that if you don't keep them active they absolutely will destroy stuff (lost 2 couches now). There's not a bone or chew toy around that she can't destroy either. But wouldn't trade her for any other breed of dog!

Stubborn, needs to be reminded who is in charge. Great loyal friend. Very territorial. Training him to walk by without his leash.

very very very friendly and highly trainable at times.very goofy and playful

I've had her a month,but shes 4 months. We are doing a lot of training, along with plenty of time to play.

Very sweet but stubborn

He is the best dog I've ever had very people pleasing but also very protective

He won’t jump and catch a frisbee but he’ll go after it before he picks it up he will PEE then pick it up running around the yard try to make me angry and to chase him. Which I won’t I’m 65. When I attempt to go in the doors he rushes over to me and finally brings the frisbee to me.

Otto was a rescue pup, about 8 weeks when we got him. He was potty trained in a day and a half with only a couple accidents after when he had problems with his food. Learned sit & stay the first day. He tends to herd my small grandson (gently), so he requires constant correction on that. Definitely an alpha personality. He’s friendly to our cat, trying to share his toys, but unfortunately my cat is really mean to him. His favorite play is to push one of his balls all around the house with his nose while holding another ball in his mouth. We have hardwood floors, so he really gets a lot of speed going. We have a zip line outside for him and play kick ball. There is a bungee with a ball tied to it that he loves to jump and pull on. When he gets a treat he hides it for (sometimes weeks) later. He can be really destructive when left alone, even for a short while. He’ll get into things that he would never dream of if we were home. We provided him with LOTS of suitable chew toys so he never chewed things he shouldn’t. He’s great at communicating his wants, though at times can be demanding, so sometimes I make him wait. He loves EVERYBODY. I think if someone broke into our house Otto would invite them in for a beer! Scary bark, but nothing to back it up.

We got Seamus when he was just under 3 months old. He came from a litter of 14 puppies. Mom was a golden lab and dad was a black and white catahoula. We began training on day two of I'm being in our house and he picked up very quickly. Potty training did take a little longer than everything else but he finally stopped having accidents in the house after he turned 5 months old. Seamus is already 22" tall and getting ready to grow more based on his currently wrinkly coat. He is great with kids and small dogs. While he tends to get overexcited and jump on new people when they come to our house, im mediately goes down on the ground when he sees a little kid or small dog. Training has been very easy with the exception of teaching him not to jump on people. Leash training is also taking a little longer simply because he rarely uses one. Definitely needs tough love when it comes to being told what to do. He gets so excited sometimes that he ignores commands and then needs correction. He's very obedient and has needed correction less and less every month. Super.friendly and lovable dog. We have had few issues with chewing and all of our furniture has survived. Based on our experience with Seamus, labahoulas are very trainable, loving and loyal dogs.

We got Chile from a friend of a friend that had 9 puppies. I’m Chile’s grandma. My 20yr old surprised me. Chile is having a hard time with potty training. She will go outside most of the time but will forget and go inside. She’s energetic and can eat like an adult dog. She loves treats and rawhide. She loves to jump and play. Chews everything she sees. Very friendly and but still cautious to unfamiliar people. She rarely keeps still unless she is in her kennel. We need a back yard for her in the near future. Sweet girl Chile pepper 🌶

I found my doggo on Valentines Day in a storm. The vet estimated him around 1.5 years old. I never found his owners so I took him in as my own and have now had him one full year. It was hard not knowing where he came from, and trying to work with everything. But, he is the BEST dog there is. Like I mentioned, I am not sure where he came from so it is hard telling how he was raised, he does well with certain dogs and not others- with bigger ones he doesn't seem to like (we had a little encounter with a pit bull and he started to growl but loves many other dogs.. I think it is the fact he is so calm so if a dog is super hyper it is a little over whelming for him). Other than the hit or miss being dog friendly- he NEVER barks and is smarter than any other dog I have met, he picks up on tricks rapidly. He likes to sleep a lot so the activity level is a little different from the page. Very timid at first as well-but could be due to how he was raised. Overall, best dog I could of ended up with!

We got Bun as a rescue about a month and a half ago and he is the best dog I’ve ever had! I grew up with purebred Labs so I thought I knew what I was getting into but boy was I wrong. He has much more energy than I ever imagined! While we are in an apartment we are right next to the dog run so on nice days we go out there and work on fetch and get his energy out. He was great with leash training and doesn’t pull at all, and we mastered sit and lay down in about 4 days! He is a highly intelligent boy and my husband and I are hooked on him. Our only 2 issues have been that he loves to play with our cats but is a bit too rough for them and he is a chewer so we have to keep plenty of toys around!

For the love of all nature, she loves baths. If you are in the shower and the door is open, she is jumping in there with you. She’s a heavy drooler and loves playing with the other dogs. We struggled around 5 months with weight gain, she got very fat, but hit a growth spurt at 7 months and measured back out to where she should be. She love rawhide and will growl to protect it. We had trouble potty training in the beginning, but she was a rescue so that could play a big part in it. She loves being outside with someone (forget about it if it’s just her and the other dogs) and she loves belly rubs and biscuits.

Love our newest rescue. We got her at 3 months old. We are struggling with potty training as she still has a weak bladder. She still only makes it about 4 hours during the day without an accident and her crate training has been difficult, because she does not like being away from us. We have another dog pug/pit mix that has been a wonderful source of exercise, and maternal figure for twinkle. They are great playmates. I did mess up and get too big a crate for Twinkles upgrade on crate size a couple weeks ago. I think we digressed with that and that may be part of our problem. At night she makes it through the night up to 7 or 8 hours. That's pretty good. We will get there. Her obedience training is going very well. If I can continue to afford it, we will keep going to keep her brain learning. We even started our 4 year old pup with adult training. Pricey, but I love it. We have been using Petco. She is a bit nippy and has a quick bite. Still very puppy like though so it will fade I think. We have done pretty well with routine walks 4 times a day (short very short) and 4 times outside in a 8x8 round kennel area to go potty. We don't have a fenced yard so getting her out in the winter takes the village. OUr large family of boys have to help. Would love to take her to learn to fetch for hunting skills, but since none of us know how...that's a bummer. Great experience so far and she makes us all very happy.

Lucie sire was a Golden Labrador and her dam was a Catahoula. She has a 'polar bear' coat and amber eyes. She's aggressively affectionate and loves everyone. She is the most athletic dog I've ever seen. She runs literal circles around our other two dogs while they run around the back yard. She displays herding tendencies as well as Alpha behavior with the other two, even though they are two other females. Potty training has been slow, but that's due more to us than her. She's a counter surfer and I believe she could eat until she popped. It's a problem that we've had to adjust to. I'm looking at her now as she's curled around my feet. She is beautiful, strong, smart and charismatic. I'm here because I want to get another Labahoula down the road. Lucie is the best dog I've ever had in my family, and I'm hooked on the breed.

We adopted at 10 weeks. I have three kids and she was very loving and friendly. Only issue we had was getting her dandruff under control. Very territorial with other dogs on her property. We have tried socializing but we just think she is a only pet type and we are okay with this!

I got him as a 5 week old from a shelter. I had not owned a puppy in years and felt quite unprepared for the puppy biting and chewing. He is extremely intelligent but somewhat resistant to (my) training. I have been on the fence about whether to keep him or find a more suitable home for him. We are scheduled to begin obedience shortly and I am optimistic this will help.

My Labahoula loves to swim. He needs lots of affection and exercise. He gets over excited when people come to visit. Always wants to be near me or my son, his Alpha.

Very trainable, she loves everyone she meets, can be stubborn, snaps out of of it easily

Got Domer at approx 6 weeks. The owner fibbed on how old he was. Full.of worms and parasites and then a skin rash. Now very healthy, plays..but having a hard time with potty training. He was not loving at all in beginning, but now starting to want to sit and play with us. Love him. Hes beautiful. Hope training goes a little quicker.

Lovable and sweet natured, very high strung/energetic. Spends most time roaming outdoors. Not a house dog. Needs a lot of space. Chases wild birds and animals also runs laps in the yard. This breed requires a large yard to run in and a lot of exercise and stimulation all the time. Jumpy and a climber.

Potty training took some time but he finally learned. He likes to jump a lot and loves our other dog Buddy who is 9 years old.

Love her she trains fast and loves to be next to me all times...

She has been a joy since the day we adopted her from the local shelter. We were told she was a chocolate lab mix but they didn't know what the other mix was. We live in New England and she was what we refer to as a Dixie dog, a dog from the south. We have since been told by several people that she is a mix of Lab and Catahoula hound. She has the beautiful amber eyes and the question mark tail of the Catahoula hound. Her coloring is dark brown like a lab but her sisters at the shelter were brindle. She is so sweet, just loves people and other dogs. She has been very trainable. She rings the bells to go outside, sits, and stays. But, she is pretty stubborn and has a mind of her own. Walking her is a challenge. She pulls like crazy. Starting formal dog training tomorrow.

I got Loki 2 weeks ago, and have a 3 1\2 year old Rhodesian ridgeback mix that he loves to play with. He learned sit quickly, for his age I have minimal accidents with potty training, but he is stubborn. The first week I had him he would run away when I wanted to bring him outside. He hates his leash. But he loves to snuggle or at least be in sight, and to be by his sister

Sirimo was 8 weeks old when I got her. She was used to other dogs and chickens. She is now 3months. She sits on command. She has never barked or chased my wild birds on my feeders or the squirrels or deer. She loves hanging out with me doing yard work. She is great with my grandkids but still working on her not jumping on them when they first get here since she is so happy to see them. Looking forward to long hikes when she is older

Such an amazing little boy. He loves to learn and loves to play. He goes on walks daily and that tends to relax him for the evenings. We socialized him early so he is great with people and he loves kids. He is a voracious eater and has been that way since he was a pup. Had problems feeding him Purina as it gave him stomach issues, switched him to Taste of the Wild and has been great ever since. Love every minute of having this boy in our lives!!

Ms. Piggy is FULL of energy. She loves playing with the kids but does have a problem of jumping on them. We have to be careful when there are smaller kids around.

Kokomo was a rescue puppy, I had originally gotten one of her sisters and she became ill and didn't make it and the person that had adopted Kokomo couldnt handle her so we adopted her, she has been a joy, easy to train.

shes is a little prankster, she loves playing with her toys and hiding them for you to look for when she wants you to play fetch with her. She learned how to sit pretty quickly, the rest is in the works! Stubborn when she wants to be. Overall she is extremely loving and affectionate to her dad and I and everyone else she comes in contact with!

We got her at 3 months from the pound. She was easy to train and knows both verbal commands and hand signs. We did have to switch her food because Iams was giving her stomach issues. Even though she knows her commands and what to do she still has a mind of her own and will attempt to ignore you because she does not want to follow directions. Love having her. Vet things she will be 80-90 pounds

So trainable, super lovable, needs tons of exercise, can be very stuborn

It’s been an amazing journey watching Herbie turn one. Great companion and adores everyone ❤️
