Description
Dog Breed: Catahoula Leopard Dog / Border Collie. Hi, I'm Thor! I'm a fun-loving dog who enjoys tossing my toys around, snuggling up for cuddles, and heading out on walks. I'd love a home where we can play games together and share lots of happy moments. My biggest wish is to feel safe, loved, and part of the family-and in return, I promise to be a loyal, sweet companion by your side. I'm also a very smart boy and highly treat-motivated, which means I'm eager to learn and love training time. I already know sit and down, and I'd be thrilled to keep learning new skills with you (especially if snacks are involved!). Thor is currently available behind the scenes. Please ask Customer Care to learn more about him and schedule a time to meet. Let's make some wonderful memories together!

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.
