The Catahoula Leopard dog is independent, watchful, and loyal. This pooch knows to be serious when working, but they are playful when they’re at home with their family. Catahoula Leopards are a large dog breed that was bred to work. However, they have high energy levels and love to play at home. Take a look at these Catahoula Leopard photos to see how cute this purebred is.
Given its large size and working background, this dog breed will be more suited for a large home with a fenced-in yard. Apartment living won’t work for them, although this pooch doesn’t bark much. They will only bark if they need to alert you of something, per their watchdog instincts.
They’re also high in energy levels and need plenty of physical activity and mental stimulation. This pooch will enjoy various exercises and games from agility to obedience, swimming, hiking, and jogging. Of course, they love having a job to do as well. If they don’t get the exercise they need, you can expect your Catahoula Leopard to be destructive. This includes digging and chewing on things.
Luckily, the Catahoula Leopard dog is easy to train. They are affectionate with their family members, good with children, and good with other dogs. At first, they might be wary of strangers, but they’ll warm up to them once they know the stranger is not a threat.
