Catahoula Leopard Dog puppies and dogs in Rockland, Maine

Breed: Catahoula Leopard Dog Age: 4 years Weight: 75 lb Dogs: Yes Cats: No; Including Chickens Kids: Yes Crate Trained : Yes House Trained : Yes Location: Warren, ME Shadow is everything that you read about Catahoula Leopard dogs. He loves his family but has energy that is endless! He loves to play, but he would be just fine being the only dog in the home, if you gave him a job! He is also the true essence of his name; he loves to be your Shadow! If you don’t keep him busy then he will keep himself entertained, and it might be a shoe or something else that won’t make you happy – so know the breed before reaching out! You must have breed experience to adopt Shadow. Shadow has lived his whole life with this one family and unfortunately, due to life events that have nothing to do with him, he needs to be rehomed. This will be tough for him, so he will need a new family that understands the breed and knows this is not a ready-made dog; due to the pandemic he has missed some key socialization periods and has not seen as much as some dogs and the world is still scary to him! ​Shadow is a true cuddle bunny with people and does love to play with other dogs. Little dogs will not be an option but if you have a dog that like to play and kids that like to cuddle this boy will be your boy for sure! Please know that if you do not have ANY Catahoula experience, ANY plans to further train him or plans to exercise him daily with a job that will work his brain and body – please do not apply.

Lanie Breed: Catahoula/Dane Mix Age: 3 Year +/- Weight: 64 lbs Medical: Up-To Up-To-Date on Vaccinations, microchipped, Spayed Cat Friendly: No Dog Friendly: Yes Kid Friendly: Ages 10+ House Trained: Yes Crate Trained: Yes Location: Connecticut Lanie is a big, muscular gal who needs a lot of people and a fenced yard in her life. She would be happy having lots of people home with her at various times of the day and/or people who take her everywhere they go. She has resting "sad-face" but I don't think she's actually sad. (She also has a white snout but she's still young, don't let that fool you) She is sort of stoic and independent minded, although she's gotten more friendly and snuggly since she has been here. She is good with other dogs and has no on-leash reactivity to them when on walks. She is very squirrel reactive and will chase them. She has escape artist tendencies and can jump over a four-foot fence, dig under a fence, and even jump through a window screen to get outside. (Why? I think it's because she's bored or sees squirrels. She doesn't go far, but she does want to see what's on the other side.) She does ok on walks, although she does seem uncertain on the leash. She likes to chew on Nyla-bones and other durable toys.

Arlo Breed: Catahoula Leopard Dog / Border Collie Mix Mix Age: 11 months est Weight: 50 lbs Medical: Up-To Up-To-Date on Vaccinations, microchipped, neutered Cat Friendly: Yes Dog Friendly: Yes Kid Friendly: Children are not recommended. House Trained: Yes Crate Trained: Yes Location: Maine Arlo and his sister Amber, were street dogs in Texas that found their way to a high-kill shelter. Both were saved, at the eleventh hour. It was then that we saw the true extent of the abuse that Arlo suffered at the shelter. Arlo being the youngest of his pack that was saved, had not had a lot of human interaction and what he had was not very positive. Therefore, he is very fearful of people. However, once he gets past that initial fear, he loves you with all his heart and then some. He is the goofiest, nuttiest dog you will ever meet. He loves to play, run and be your shadow. And when I say shadow, if you stop fast, well I don't have to finish that statement.... Arlo will push his head into you and basically hugs you – it is the cutest thing. He knows how to crate (though he does not love it), he plays nicely with his dog buddies and really wants to play with his cat brothers. Leash work is a work in process. Arlo is very ADHD and is very easily distracted. **DISCLAIMER** So, he sounds like a dream, right? Arlo is a dog that is not for everyone. If you work a lot and have little time for a dog. He is not for you. If you have a lot of people that come over, he is not for you. If you live in the city or have an apartment, he is not for you. If you have kids or grandchildren that come over all the time, he is not for you. This dog is HIGH ENERGY. He needs a job. He also takes at least a solid month if not longer to trust people and if you are easily scared by dog behavior he will win. Arlo is a dog that will reward you and then some, BUT you must be in it heart and soul otherwise he is not the right dog for you.

Ginger - RI Breed: Catahoula Leopard Dog Mix Age: 2 years old +/- Weight: 60 lbs Medical: Up-To Up-To-Date on Vaccinations, microchipped, Spayed Cat Friendly: No Dog Friendly: Yes Kid Friendly: No House Trained: Yes Crate Trained: Yes Location: Rhode Island Ginger is a sweet, young Catahoula Leopard mix (maybe black lab) who is looking for her forever home! At just about 60lbs she is the perfect size and loves to crawl in your lap. Ginger has been nothing but a wonderful guest in our home and has learned the routine here quickly. She is house trained and mostly crate trained, sleeps well by herself or with others, and nondestructive when left alone. Ginger has done amazing with all the other dogs in the home, both females and males ranging from 65lbs to 105lbs. Ginger loves toys of all kinds and can stay busy by herself, but she does love a good game of fetch or tug with humans and other dogs. Ginger is very eager to please and is treat/food motivated. She knows basic commands and is well mannered on leash, until that squirrel goes by! She brushes off most triggers in seconds and continues on her way. Ginger loves riding in the car and is very calm when opening the door to get her out. She does a perfect sit in many situations. Ginger does love to bark at all things and is hesitant of strangers. Ginger would do best in a home without children and even though she is dog friendly, she would strive in a home where she can get all of the attention and go on adventures. Ginger will need daily mental stimulation and physical exercise. Ginger does have trust issues with men but quickly comes around with calm and confident interactions and of course, time. Once she opens up Ginger is very loving and will take all the rubs and treats you are willing to give her!

Dallas - ME Breed: Catahoula Leopard Hound / Australian Cattle Dog Mix Age: 1 year +/- Weight: 50 lbs Medical: Up-To Up-To-Date on Vaccinations, microchipped, altered Cat Friendly: Possible Dog Friendly: Yes Kid Friendly: Ages 10+; still very puppish and the children need to be dog savvy House Trained: Yes Crate Trained: Yes, still learning Special Needs: Has had a leg amputation; it has healed but will need to have continued muscle building Location: Maine Dallas is a big goofy guy who is adjusting very well to home life and life as a tripod. His front leg was amputated in late August and fully healed. He is doing quite well adjusting to the new body mechanics, he is also really filling in his frame and getting quite muscular. He willingly walks on a leash for the most part, occasionally will belly flop, usually disinterested in where we are going, occasionally because of fatigue, but that is becoming much less frequent as both his stamina increases and his adapting to having a leash. He is happiest on leash free walks/runs because it’s less tiring for him to run and he can do quick stops to rest as needed. He pretty much always stays close to his person but is still working on his recall if he sees another dog. We are doing a lot of treats to look at us when he sees another dog. He doesn’t have much interest in squirrels and chipmunks which leads me to believe he’d probably be ok with a dog savvy cat. I will try to get him into a house with a cat to see how he does. Dallas is a very heavy and active chewer, we provide him with bones, rope toys, and tough squeaky toys. He loves to play tug of war; he is learning to take it and give it. He does not play fetch yet but might learn with time. His favorite thing is playing with our 8-year-old male CLD x dog, Poe. Dallas loves car rides and settles right in. He likes to rest his head on the center console and if allowed, would climb right into your lap. He does have a penchant for chewing charging cables, so we keep those out of reach. More than anything, Dallas just wants to be right with you. He lie between our feet when working in the garden, resting his head in your lap while we are working at the desk, happily snuggling on the couch which we occasionally allow on movie nights. He has done a great job on learning our household rules such as waiting at door, no hanging out in the kitchen. He is a teenager and as such needs to be reminded, but always gracefully accepts corrections. He did come with an obnoxious frustration and demand barking habit. With consistent training he has rapidly dropped that behavior but will occasionally revert. He will continue to need work on that. Right now, he is most likely to demand bark for objects from the other dog, we remove the object. We bring Dallas to youth sporting events, and he does well there, but we are mindful to not let it go too long, so we don’t have boredom behaviors. He is mindful of our 13-year-old son, but Able is very dog savvy and a very firm handler. I would not expect most kids to be able to play games and walk Dallas without adult guidance. Not that Dallas is bad, but he is strong and still occasionally trying teenage behaviors such as mouthing, jumping and lunging. Again, all of this has become very infrequent within the short time he has been with us, but if not minded it could easily become problem behaviors. Dallas was very interested in our sheep and chickens that were behind fences. I saw typical playful CLD behavior towards the sheep, ie getting in their faces and feeling confident with exposure and training he would be mindful of them. He was really interested in the chickens, but then got inadvertently shocked by the electric fence and promptly lost all interest. I didn’t bring him into their enclosure after that but am sure that he could easily learn to be respectful of chickens with proper training. Overall, Dallas is an absolute love, a total goof ball who just wants to be an active member of your family. He is very sensitive to change and would do best with a stable household situation where he gets lots of snuggles, play time and exercise. He really loves dogs, not to the extent that he ignores his handler on walks but would like to live with one or at least spend a good deal of time with one. Because of his size, age, and breed characteristics I would make sure he has a firm handler who can continue to help him develop good manners. Dallas is very eager to do the right thing and have a family of his own.
