Description
Dog Breed: Catahoula Leopard Dog / Great Pyrenees / Mixed. Born 5-16-2022 Baxter is one of five pups that were found abandoned under a bridge near Butler OK. Baxter has been in the shelter too long and is in need of a forever family. He is friendly with people and is curious and energetic, but due to being confined in the shelter for so long is very shy. The Catahoula breed is known for "extreme intelligence". He needs a secure fenced yard. He is ready to be trained and will make a great companion as he is eager to please and have attention. A playmate would make his life complete. 2 years in a sanctuary makes gaining trust a process, but he would be so worth it and is very deserving of a family.

Breed overview
Overview:
The Pyrenees Catahoula is a striking hybrid, blending the majestic Great Pyrenees with the agile Catahoula Leopard Dog. Originating from designer breed programs, these intelligent dogs combine the best traits of their parentage. Physically, they are medium to large-sized with a muscular build, often inheriting the Pyrenees’ thick double coat in various colors, sometimes with the distinctive Catahoula merle pattern and captivating blue or multi-colored eyes. Their temperament is a fascinating mix: they are typically loyal, protective, and intelligent, making them excellent family guardians. However, their energy levels vary, requiring consistent training and socialization to prevent stubbornness. While generally good with children and other pets when raised together, their protective instincts mean they're better suited for active families with access to a yard, rather than apartment living. Potential health concerns may include hip and elbow dysplasia, bloat, and eye conditions, so prospective owners should research both parent breeds thoroughly. With proper care and attention, a Pyrenees Catahoula can be a devoted and engaging companion.
