We've had 3 Catahoula Leopard dogs that I put down because they got to aggressive and we couldn't control them, I won't give that breed any more chances. No more big dogs for us were planning on traveling and been thinking about a Jack Russell or some other kind of ankle biter.


Dang! I hate to hear that about your Catahoulas. We have one now that is a great family dog.

They are great dogs but get really possessive with age. Why Gumbo turned on my wife is anyone's guess, she's an animal lover and has been attacked 3 different times by dogs. All 3 of our Catahoulas would bite if you got out of your vehicle in our yard, sometimes, no growling or barking just bite the heck out of someone. It got to the point where you had to chain them if someone drove into the yard because you never knew what was going to happen.


Life is good live it while you can.
