And we receive new "adoptees" every day, so add our website to your "favorites" list and visit us often. .talgov/animals Hi, Iâm Georgia. I weigh about 46 pounds and came to the shelter after my former owner had to surrender me. Iâm a social girl who loves attention and enjoys being around people. I walk well on a leash and do well with other dogs. Iâm friendly, playful, active, and also independent enough to keep myself entertained. I can be a bit of an escape artist, so Iâll need a secure yard and home to keep me safe. Iâd also do best in a home without cats or other small animals. Iâm a sweet girl looking for the right forever home where I can feel secure, loved, and happy.

Overview:
The Catahoula Leopard Dog is a striking and intelligent breed, originating in the southern United States, particularly Louisiana, where they were bred as versatile working dogs. Their most distinctive physical feature is their "leopard" spotted coat, which comes in a stunning array of colors and patterns, often accompanied by captivating "cracked" or "glass" eyes. These medium-to-large dogs possess a strong, muscular build, reflecting their heritage as agile hunters and herders. Temperamentally, Catahoulas are known for being independent, alert, and protective, yet also deeply loyal to their families. They thrive on having a "job" to do and require significant mental and physical stimulation, making them unsuitable for apartment living and best suited for active families with experience handling strong-willed dogs. While generally healthy, potential owners should be aware of a predisposition to deafness (especially in dogs with excessive white markings) and hip dysplasia. Proper socialization and consistent training from a young age are crucial for a well-adjusted Catahoula.
