ADOPTED ON 06-09-23 - Every once in a great while we get to work with families that love their pets and want the best for them. This is a rare treat that we enjoy, as usually the situations we work with are cases of neglect or abuse. But on those rare occasions, we are happy to help when someone asks us to place puppies. We know that “accidents happen”, and the well-meaning pet owner had planned to spay or neuter, and we appreciate so much that they come to us instead of dumping the unwanted puppies on a back road, which happens too often.
So is the case for Daisy and her siblings. Happily, they have only known love, but are in search of a home to call their own just the same. Daisy is an absolutely gorgeous Catahoula/Hound mix, and is about 5 months old. She is about 15 pounds and has the most beautiful markings on her coat. Foster mom says that
Daisy is very sweet and friendly, but can be a bit nosy, and wants to be involved with everything you are doing. She makes up for it, though, with her comically long, floppy ears that she is constantly tripping on! She is very loving with children (although we still ALWAYS stress that children should never be left unsupervised with any dog) and loves to be cuddled. Like any puppy, Daisy gets along with everyone and is happy playing all day.
All dogs, like humans, have certain traits, however, it is important to know that dogs and humans, regardless of the breed or ethnic group, are all social family oriented and their characteristics are only one of their many awesome qualities.
When choosing a pet for your family, the potential breed is important to research so that you find your perfect fit as well as the dogs. The Catahoula Leopard Dog are playful at home and a multi-purpose working dog that is well-muscled and powerful with a sense of endurance. They are a medium-large, short-coated dog, known for its many varied coat and eye colors and patterns. Catahoula’s are the only breed of dog to have historically originated in the state of Louisiana. They know their place in the family unit, they are affectionate, loyal, and gentle. Also called the Catahoula Hog Dog, they are often used as watchdogs, guard dogs, and of course as loyal companions. The Catahoula pairs nicely with the sleekly beautiful Bluetick
The Bluetick hound has a sweet-tempered, active and an affectionate charmer who might enjoy snoozing in the shade. They are a native to the United States that sports a trademark ticked pattern on its short, smooth coat. These dogs generally have a friendly, sweet, and loyal disposition. They are used both for hunting and companionship. Above all, this breed belongs in an active home where there is plenty of access to explore the outdoors. The droopy-eared charm of Blueticks is irresistible. They crave affection and are deeply devoted to those who provide it.
Bluetick tend to have a very affectionate temperament with their owners. They also can get along well with other dogs. As high-energy dogs, they need lots of exercise every day their hardwired impulses can develop serenading the neighbors with loud, mournful ‘music’, so an active family is best!
