is Tony just wanted to update you on Misty that a bought back in the early
summer. She is a special girl...she loves to set in my lap and watch the
outdoor channel, when deer come on she starts whinning and then when they run
she starts barking its pretty funny. She has helped me trail 3 deer so far this
yr. 1st time she was all about the blood but didnt know what to do with the
trail, she was very aggresive once we found deer. 2nd trail much better about
150yd trail did well took her awhile to work it out...I could see blood but let
her keep working until she found it, took her about 30min. 3rd she found it in
like 3 mins 80yd trail, she worked it very quickly. She has trailed a hog also
that we didnt find poor shot and another we did find. With deer season almost
over we will be starting on coon soon. Here is a pic of last deer she found. Oh
last time out she found a skunk also...we were setting at camp fire and heard
her strike up just outside of camp, I figured coon probably well after a 10 min
run she came back an ohhhh boy! About 30 baths with scent away soap i finally
let her back in camper lol.<br />

<b id="yui_3_2_0_1_1347381829399280"><i id="yui_3_2_0_1_1347381829399279"><span id="yui_3_2_0_1_1347381829399278" style="color: black; font-family: Papyrus; font-size: 18pt;">"Watch out! You nearly broad sided that car!" My father yelled at me. "Can't you do anything right?"<br /><br />Those words hurt worse than blows. I turned my head toward the elderly man in the seat beside me, daring me to challenge him. A lump rose in my throat as I averted my eyes. I wasn't prepared for another battle.<br /><br />"I saw the car, Dad . Please don't yell at me when I'm driving.."<br /><br />My voice was measured and steady, sounding far <br />calmer than I really felt.<br /><br />Dad glared at me, then turned away and settled back. At home I left Dad in front of the television and went outside to collect my thoughts..... dark, heavy clouds hung in the air with a promise of<br />rain. The rumble of distant thunder seemed to echo my inner turmoil. What could I do about him?<br /><br />Dad had been a lumberjack in Washington and Oregon . He had enjoyed being outdoors and had reveled in pitting his strength against the forces of nature. He had entered grueling lumberjack competitions, and had placed often. The shelves in his house were filled with trophies that attested to his prowess.<br /><br />The years marched on relentlessly. The first time he couldn't lift a heavy log, he joked about it; but later that same day I saw him outside alone, straining to lift it.. He became irritable whenever anyone teased him about his advancing age, or when he couldn't do something he had done as a younger man.<br /><br />Four days after his sixty-seventh birthday, he had a heart attack. An ambulance sped him to the hospital while a paramedic administered CPR to keep blood and oxygen flowing.<br /><br />At the hospital, Dad was rushed into an operating room. He was lucky; he survived. But something inside Dad died. His zest for life was gone. <br /><br />He obstinately refused to follow doctor's orders. Suggestions and offers of help were turned aside with sarcasm and insults. The number of visitors <br />thinned, then finally stopped altogether. Dad was left alone..<br /><br />My husband, Dick, and I asked Dad to come live with us on our small farm. We hoped the fresh air and rustic atmosphere would help him adjust.<br /><br />Within a week after he moved in, I regretted the invitation. It seemed nothing was satisfactory. He criticized everything I did. I became frustrated and moody. <br /><br />Soon I was taking my pent-up anger out on Dick. We began to bicker and argue.<br /><br />Alarmed, Dick sought out our pastor and explained the situation. <br /><br />The clergyman set up weekly counseling appointments for us. At the close of each session he prayed, asking God to soothe Dad's troubled mind.<br /><br />But the months wore on and God was silent. Something had to be done and it was up to me to do it.<br /><br />The next day I sat down with the phone book and <br />methodically called each of the mental health clinics listed in the Yellow Pages. I explained my problem to each of the sympathetic voices that answered in vain.<br /><br />Just when I was giving up hope, one of the voices suddenly exclaimed, "I just read something that might help you! Let me go get the article.."<br /><br />I listened as she read. The article described a remarkable study done at a nursing home. All of the patients were under treatment for chronic depression. Yet their attitudes had proved dramatically when they were given responsibility for a dog..<br /><br />I drove to the animal shelter that afternoon.. After I filled out a questionnaire, a uniformed officer led me <br />to the kennels. The odor of disinfectant stung my nostrils as I moved down the row of pens Each contained five to seven dogs. Long-haired dogs, curly-haired dogs, black dogs, spotted dogs all jumped up, trying to reach me. I studied each one but rejected one after the other for various reasons too big, too small, too much hair. As I neared the last pen a dog in the shadows of the far corner struggled to his feet, walked to the front of the run and sat down. It was a pointer, one of the dog world's aristocrats. But this was a caricature of the breed.<br /><br />Years had etched his face and muzzle with shades of gray. His hip bones jutted out in lopsided triangles. But it was his eyes that caught and held my attention. Calm and clear, they beheld me unwaveringly.<br /><br />I pointed to the dog. "Can you tell me about him?" The officer looked, then shook his head in puzzlement. "He's a funny one. Appeared <br />out of nowhere and sat in front of the gate. We brought him in, figuring someone would be right down to claim him. That was two weeks ago and we've <br />heard nothing. His time is up tomorrow." He gestured helplessly.<br /><br />As the words sank in I turned to the man in horror.. "You mean you're going to kill him?"<br /><br />"Ma'am," he said gently, "that's our policy. We don't have room for every unclaimed dog."<br /><br />I looked at the pointer again. The calm brown eyes awaited my decision. "I'll take him," I said. I drove home with the dog on the front seat beside me.. When I reached the house I honked the horn twice. I was helping my prize out of the car when Dad shuffled onto the front porch... "Ta-da! Look what I got for you, Dad !" I said excitedly.<br /><br />Dad looked, then wrinkled his face in disgust. "If I had wanted a dog I would have gotten one. And I would have picked out a better specimen than that bag of bones. Keep it! I don't want it" Dad waved his arm scornfully and turned back toward the house.<br /><br />Anger rose inside me.. It squeezed together my throat muscles and pounded into my temples. "You'd better get used to him, Dad. He's staying!"<br /><br />Dad ignored me.. "Did you hear me, Dad ?" I screamed. At those words Dad whirled angrily, his hands clenched at his sides, his eyes narrowed and blazing with hate. We stood glaring at each other like duelists, when suddenly the pointer pulled free from my grasp. He wobbled toward my dad and sat down in front of him. Then slowly, carefully, he raised his paw..<br /><br />Dad's lower jaw trembled as he stared at the uplifted paw confusion replaced the anger in his eyes. The pointer waited patiently. <br /><br />Then Dad was on his knees hugging the animal.<br />It was the beginning of a warm and intimate friendship. Dad named the pointer Cheyenne . Together he and Cheyenne explored the community. They spent long hours walking down dusty lanes. They spent reflective moments on the banks of streams, angling for tasty trout. They even started to attend Sunday services together, Dad sitting in a pew and Cheyenne lying quietly at his feet.<br /><br />Dad and Cheyenne were inseparable throughout the next three years. Dad's bitterness faded, and he <br />and Cheyenne made many friends. Then late one night I was startled to feel Cheyenne 's cold nose burrowing through our bed covers. He had never before come into our bedroom at night.. I woke Dick, put on my robe and ran into my father's room. Dad lay in his bed, his face serene. But his spirit had left</span></i></b><b><i><span style="color: navy; font-family: Papyrus; font-size: 18pt;"></span></i></b><b><i><span style="color: black; font-family: Papyrus; font-size: 18pt;">quietly sometime during the night.<br /><br />Two days later my shock and grief deepened when I discovered Cheyenne lying dead beside Dad's bed. I wrapped his still form in the rag rug he had slept on. As Dick and I buried him near a favourite fishing hole, I silently thanked the dog for the help he had given me in restoring Dad's peace of mind.<br /><br />The morning of Dad's funeral dawned overcast and dreary. This day looks like the way I feel, I thought, as I walked down the aisle to the pews reserved for family. I was surprised to see the many friends Dad and Cheyenne had made filling the church.. The pastor began his eulogy. It was a tribute to both Dad and the dog who had changed his life.<br /><br />And then the pastor turned to Hebrews 13:2. "Do not neglect to show hospitality to strangers, for by this some have entertained angels without knowing it."<br /><br />"I've often thanked God for sending that angel," <br />he said.<br /><br />For me, the past dropped into place, completing a puzzle that I had not seen before: the sympathetic voice that had just read the right article... Cheyenne 's unexpected appearance at the animal shelter .<br />...his calm acceptance and complete devotion to my father. . and the proximity of their deaths. And suddenly I understood. I knew that God had answered my prayers after all.<br /><br />Life is too short for drama or petty things, so <br />laugh hard, love truly and forgive quickly. Live While You Are Alive. Forgive now those who made you cry. You might not get a second time.</span></i></b></div>

</span></u></b><br />
<br />
<ul><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: x-small;">The word "feist" is an ancient one referring to a
small, often noisy, dog. Like the Cur breeds, the Feist breeds were developed in
the rural South by breeders who needed low-maintenance dogs to hunt small game
and to eliminate vermin. Feists were often the result of crosses between hunting
hounds and terriers. Today's Treeing Feist is the result of generations of
breeding for performance and it is still primarily used to hunt squirrel,
although they are also used to hunt raccoon, rabbits and flushing game birds.
</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: x-small;">The Treeing Feist was recognized by
U.K.C. on November 1, 1998. </span></ul>
<br /><b><u><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: x-small;">General Appearance </span></u></b><br />
<ul><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: x-small;">The Treeing Feist is an agile, active, small tree
dog. The body is slightly longer than tall. Regardless of the size of the
individual dog, the legs must be long enough to allow the dog to move quickly
and with agility in rough terrain. The head is blocky, with a broad skull, a
moderate stop, and a strong muzzle. The tail is straight, set on as a natural
extension of the topline, and may be natural or docked. The coat is short and
smooth. The Treeing Feist should be evaluated as a working dog, and
exaggerations or faults should be penalized in proportion to how much they
interfere with the dog's ability to work. Scars should neither be penalized nor
regarded as proof of a dog's working abilities. </span></ul>
<br /><b><u><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: x-small;">Characteristics </span></u></b><br />
<ul><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: x-small;">Treeing Feists are used most frequently to hunt
squirrel, raccoon, and opossum. They hunt using both sight and scent and are
extremely alert dogs. On track, they are virtually silent.
</span></ul>
<br /><b><u><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: x-small;">Head </span></u></b><br />
<ul><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: x-small;">The head is proportionate to the size of the body.
When viewed from the side, the muzzle is slightly shorter than the skull and
joined by a definite stop. The planes of the skull and muzzle are parallel.
</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: x-small;">SKULL - The skull is flat and broad,
tapering slightly toward the muzzle. Cheeks are muscular, but not
over-developed. </span><br /><br /><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: x-small;">MUZZLE - The muzzle is
long and sufficiently broad and deep to balance the skull. Lips are tight. Lip
pigment matches nose pigment and eye rims. </span><br /><br /><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: x-small;">TEETH - The Treeing Feist has a complete set of evenly spaced, white
teeth meeting in a scissors bite. </span><br /><br /><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: x-small;">NOSE -
Nose color is black or self-colored. </span><br /><br /><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: x-small;">EYES
- Eyes are brown, ranging from dark to amber. Eye rims match nose pigment.
</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: x-small;">EARS - Ears are set at the outside edges
of the skull and may be erect or button, but not pendulous.
</span></ul>
<br /><b><u><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: x-small;">Neck </span></u></b><br />
<ul><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: x-small;">The neck is clean, muscular, and of moderate length.
The neck gradually widens from the nape and blends smoothly into the shoulders.
</span></ul>
<br /><b><u><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: x-small;">Forequarters </span></u></b><br />
<ul><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: x-small;">Shoulders are well laid back. The upper arm is long
and forms an apparent 90-degree angle with the shoulder blade. </span><br /><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: x-small;">The forelegs are strong, straight, and moderately well boned.
The elbows are set close to the body, but able to move freely in action. The
pasterns are short, powerful, slightly sloping, and flexible. "Bench legs" are
acceptable but not preferred. </span></ul>
<br /><b><u><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: x-small;">Body
</span></u></b><br />
<ul><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: x-small;">A properly proportioned Treeing Feist is slightly
longer than tall. Chest is moderately wide and deep, with the brisket reaching
to the elbow. Ribs are well sprung and extend well back. Back is of moderate
length, and level, blending into a muscular, slightly arched loin with slight to
moderate tuckup. </span></ul>
<br /><b><u><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: x-small;">Hindquarters
</span></u></b><br />
<ul><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: x-small;">The hindquarters are strong and muscular. The bone,
angulation, and musculature of the hindquarters are in balance with the
forequarters. The stifles are well bent, and the hocks are well let down. When
the dog is standing, the short, strong rear pasterns are perpendicular to the
ground, and viewed from the rear, parallel to one another.
</span></ul>
<br /><b><u><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: x-small;">Feet </span></u></b><br />
<ul><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: x-small;">The feet are round, well arched, and tight. Pads are
hard, tough, and well cushioned. Dewclaws may be removed.
</span></ul>
<br /><b><u><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: x-small;">Tail </span></u></b><br />
<ul><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: x-small;">The tail is set on at the end of the croup. The
natural tail is thick at the base and tapers toward the tip or it may be a
natural bob. When the dog is alert, the tail is carried in an upward curve. When
relaxed, the tail may be carried straight out behind the dog.
</span></ul>
<br /><b><u><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: x-small;">Coat </span></u></b><br />
<ul><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: x-small;">The coat is short, dense, and smooth.
</span><br /><br /><i><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: x-small;">Disqualification: </span></i><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: x-small;">Long or shaggy coat. </span></ul>
<br /><b><u><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: x-small;">Color </span></u></b><br />
<ul><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: x-small;">Any color or color pattern. </span><br /><br /><i><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: x-small;">Disqualification: </span></i><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: x-small;">Albinism.
</span></ul>
<br /><b><u><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: x-small;">Height and Weight
</span></u></b><br />
<ul><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: x-small;">Height ranges between 10 to 18 inches. Weight ranges
between 12 and 30 pounds. Treeing Feists are working dogs and should be
presented in hard, muscular condition. </span></ul>
<br /><b><u><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: x-small;">Gait </span></u></b><br />
<ul><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: x-small;">Treeing Feist gait is smooth and effortless, with
good reach of forequarters. Rear quarters have strong driving power, with hocks
fully extending. Viewed from any position, legs turn neither in nor out, nor do
feet cross or interfere with each other. As speed increases, feet tend to
converge toward centerline of balance. This breed is capable of great bursts of
speed when needed. </span></ul>
<br /><b><u><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: x-small;">Disqualifications </span></u></b><br />
<ul><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: x-small;">Unilateral or bilateral cryptorchid. Viciousness or
extreme shyness. Long or shaggy coat. Albinism. Deafness. Blindness. Overshot

<br />
<span style="color: #b45f06;">I have always teased Danny about his hog dogs when asked what breed they are. He called them <span style="color: blue;">" Outlaw Cur".</span> His only explanation to that was: Don't know what he has in him but he dang sure can hunt.</span><br />
Here is an article on the Goodman Hound and I also found this article interesting on the curs:<br />
<br />
The history of the Goodman Hound should not be told without mention being
made of Ben Robinson. He was born in Montgomery County, Kentucky about three
miles north of Mount Sterling in 1805. Robinson was a dealer in horses and mules
and made many trips to the eastern States. He became friends with and hunted
with the Maryland hunters and their Irish hounds. In about 1850 he brought
Tickler and Jake to Kentucky. Many other hounds were brought to Kentucky from
around 1850 to 1870. Some of these were Fury, Whitie, Wag (a Virginia hound),
Eagle, Old May, Highland and Lady. From Whitie and Fury came Cunningham's Ben.
<br />
Willis Goodman, he cannot be given full credit for developing this strain of
hounds, but he was the guiding influence. Mr. Goodman was born in Albemarle
County, Virginia. As a young man he moved to Paris, Kentucky and took with him
some of his hounds of Virginia breeding. He served in the Confederate Army and
it was after the war between the States was over that he began his strain of
hounds. We will begin with what is said to be the first mating that originated
this strain of hounds.
<br />
Goodman had a female named Goodman's Lizzie. She was of Maupin breeding. You
would probably know this particular bloodline as Walker. Her Maupin blood
consisted of the imported English breeding crossed with the great Tennessee
Lead. Tennessee Lead was a major contributor the the development of the
foxhounds as a whole. Lizzie also carried a trace of Ben Robinson breeding.
Cunningham's Ben was straight Ben Robinson breeding. Both his sire and dam came
from the Irish hounds of Maryland that traced back to the original importation
of Mountain and Muse by Governor Ogle in 1812. Mountain and Muse were the famous
pair of hounds that were bred extensively from 1812 until their death and are
considered to be the single greatest contributing breeding pair to the
development of the foxhound breeds. The Robinson hounds were highly regarded all
over the country and their reputation as excellent red foxhounds became
mythical. About 1876 Lizzie and Ben were bred. These pups are considered to be
the first litter of pups born that would later be called Goodman Hounds.
<br />
Goodman should be given credit for supplying and supervising the early
outcrosses of this breed. He was able to do this effectively because of his vast
knowledge of the various bloodlines. Virginia Bolivar was whelped about 1878. He
was bred by Sam Yates of Virginia and given as a present to Goodman by his
cousin, William Durrett of North Garden, Virginia. Goodman used Bolivar as a
stud dog with good results. Goodman later sent him to New England after he was
used extensively as a sire in Kentucky. Scully was purchased by Goodman and
Colonel Clay from Colonel William Johnson of Nashville, Tennessee. Scully was
used with great success on the females having Bolivar as a sire. Their was much
debate among the foxhunters of that day on whether or not Scully was a July
hound. Scully shows the Durrett and Cole hounds of Virginia up close in his
pedigree. In his third and fourth generation pedigree he shows practically the
same blood as does Bolivar. Scully was said by Goodman to be, "A good game hound
with plenty of speed and guts which he imparted to his pups". Mollie Trevis may
be considered to have been one of the foundation brood matrons. She was owned by
Asa Spahr of Winchester, Kentucky. She had several crosses of Maupin's Imperial
Rifle and Tennessee Lead in her bloodlines and was definitely a hound that
represented Goodman's ideas of proper breeding. She is found quite frequently
coming into the pedigrees from crosses on Fidler, a son of Cunningham's Ben out
of Goodman's Lizzie.
<br />
Mr. Goodman made no claims that his hounds were superior to any others. He
was not one to brag on hounds of any breeding. Most of the foxhunters of that
day believed that speed was the thing to breed for. Goodman was of the opinion
that speed alone was not the important thing. He tried to breed for courage,
endurance, speed, a good nose and fox sense. He wanted hounds with good feet and
plenty of bone. A necessary factor if they were to pass his test of being able
and willing to run five consecutive days and give a good race each day. He
believed that no other hunters, with the exception of the Walker brothers, put
their hounds through such a severe test as did he and his hunting companions.
<br />
The honor of naming this strain of hounds does not belong to Goodman, but
rather to Dr. W. E. Wyatt of Cyrene, Missouri. Dr. Wyatt had heard of hounds
sent by Goodman and his friends to Captain Bowles and Dr. J. W. Norris of
Palmyra, Missouri. He wrote Goodman asking for some of these hounds that were
making quite a name for themselves in Missouri and did received them. He later
secured permission from Goodman to use his name in a letter intended for the
American Field. Goodman had no idea that his name would be used for this purpose
and was against commercializing the fame of his hounds. <br />

<br />".<br /><br />The word cur appears to be colloquial in nature. In 1790, Thomas Bewick wrote:<br /><br />
<blockquote>
The Cur Dog is a trusty and useful servant to the farmer and grazier; and, although it is not taken notice of by naturalists as a distinct race, yet it is now so generally used, especially in the North of England, and such great attention is paid in breeding it, that we cannot help considering it as a permanent kind. They are chiefly employed in driving cattle; in which way they are extremely useful. They are larger, stronger, and fiercer than the Shepherd's Dog; and their hair is smoother and shorter. They are mostly black and white colour. Their ears are half-pricked; and many of them are whelped with short tails, which seem as if they had been cut: These are called Self-tailed Dogs. They bite very keenly; and as they always make their attack at the heels, the cattle have no defence against them: In this way they are more than a match for a Bull, which they quickly compel to run. Their sagacity is uncommonly great. They know their master's fields, and are singularly attentive to the cattle that are in them: A good Dog watches, goes his rounds; and, if any strange cattle should happen to appear amongst the herd, although unbidden, he quickly flies at them, and with keen bites obliges them to depart.</blockquote>

Breeds of cur are usually not recognized by major show registries, so selection for certain looks hasn't been a main factor in their development. They are normally selected mainly for hunting or work ability, although some breeds of cur are also known for herding ability. Consequently, most cur breeds have extremely flexible appearance standards; enough so that a complete breed appearance standard is difficult to create. The resultant diversity in appearance and selection for physical ability result in breeds that tend to be genetically sound and healthy.<br /><br />They are descended from European dogs brought over by immigrants, possibly mixed with native American dogs.

<span style="color: magenta;">Hello Danny and Joyce! We have been wanting to send you a pic of our little girl whom we love so dearly and <u>finally</u> got a camera (the other had broken). So here she is! About a week before we came to pick her up, my 7 yr. old daughter had started making a list of potential names for the new puppy. The day we came to <span class="yshortcuts" id="lw_1320689050_0">Frankston</span>, we had 153 names to choose from....on the way home, we ended choosing one that hadn't even made the list: <strong>Brooke</strong>. We knew that we remind us of you guys :) Brooke is beautiful, sweet and quiet---we have maybe heard her bark 3 times since we got her back in August. However, when you let her out of her pen, her nose is to the ground sniffing. She digs and roots around often. My husband says she looks like her Mama and I think she looks so much like her Daddy (besides her color). We love her and thanks again for your help with 'dogs' this past year. God Bless, Nicole Tull</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: small;"><b>CATAHOULA BULLDOG</b></span></div>
<br />
<div align="center">
<span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: x-small;">By Al Walker, ARF Genealogist &
Registrar</span></div>
<br />
<div align="justify">
<span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: x-small;">FOR THOSE WHO SEE AND FALL IN LOVE WITH
A "CATAHOULA BULLDOG": These same individuals often will want to know, "What
constitutes a "Catahoula Bulldog"? In short, a Catahoula Bulldog is a cross of
two high quality breeds – one being an ARF Registered Catahoula </span><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: xx-small;">[Order Tom D. Stodghill’s book: "<a href="http://www.arfusa.com/books_video.htm">History Of Catahoula Leopard Cowdogs</a>", $20.00, post
paid.],</span><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: x-small;"> and the other being an ARF Registered
American Bulldog </span><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: xx-small;">[Order Dave Putnam’s book: "<a href="http://www.arfusa.com/books_video.htm">The Working American Bulldog</a>", $55.95, post paid.].
</span></div>
<br />
<div align="justify">
<span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: x-small;">In 1968, ARF welcomed Mr. Bart Perry,
of Midlothian, Texas, as the first ARF Certified Breeder of "CATAHOULA
BULLDOGS". Six years prior, Bart had been active in the raising of "American
Bulldogs", and had decided to expand into the "Catahoula" line.</span></div>
<br />
<div align="justify">
<span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: x-small;">The ‘Catahoula Bulldog" was bred for
two reasons. First, ranchers and hog-hunters have used "Catahoulas" for many
years to herd cattle and hunt hogs, but, to catch hogs, they had to carry a
"catch-dog" with them. It seemed that most "Catahoulas" were neither big enough,
nor tough enough, to catch. The "American Bulldog" has an impeccable reputation
as a catch-dog. Therefore, when the "American Bulldog" is crossed with a
"Catahoula", you get a bigger, tougher dog which will work cattle and also catch
hogs when needed. The second reason is that the "Catahoula Bulldog" is an
excellent bear dog because it has the size and aggressiveness of the "American
Bulldog", and the intelligence and hunting ability of the
"Catahoula".</span></div>
<br />
<div align="justify">
<img align="left" border="1" height="267" src="http://www.arfusa.com/carnathans_lady.jpg" width="200" /></div>
<br />
<div align="justify">
<span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: x-small;">Did you ever hear that proverbial
expression, "Always get acquainted with your dog"? Spend the first week of the
dog’s education by just feeding, petting, and walking with him. You need to get
acquainted with him as much as he needs to get acquainted with you. Most animals
are part of a "pack order" psychological system. In the wolf family, order is
enforced by the pack leader, and he usually is the strongest and fiercest male
who has the ability to subdue any rival in battle, whether a wild dog pack, wild
hogs, deer herds, etc. This strong instinct to be a leader, and, also, an
equally strong instinct for submissive behavior is what a trainer exploits, to
the best of his ability, in his dog. Keep in mind, even well-trained dogs can
revert to their wild nature, and this is why it is an unwritten law of the range
never to let your dog roam. If you do, never complain if he gets
shot.</span></div>
<br />
<div align="justify">
<span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: x-small;">The "Catahoula Bulldog" is a rugged
canine, full of life and independence. He will sacrifice all for his ability to
work the ranging lands where herds and wild animals roam. His instincts are
razor sharp, and his intelligence makes him a top working dog, and one of the
best personal protection dogs one could want.</span></div>
<br />
<div align="justify">
<span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: x-small;">The "Catahoula Bulldog" is recognized
as a 50-50 first generation cross between the ‘Catahoula" and the "American
Bulldog", and up to a 75-25 cross in succeeding generations. It is desirable to
keep the cross within the 75-25 limit in order not to lose the basic
characteristics of these two fine breeds.</span></div>Westbrookhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14685345444805177879noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-417036381144218902.post-53101151187569881672011-10-19T15:40:00.000-05:002011-10-19T15:55:44.681-05:00Updated pictures of pups available now<span style="color: blue; font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: large;">Updated pictures of pups available:</span><br />
