Description
Ruger is a wonderful example of the breed! He has been raised in our home, never in a kennel setting. He doesn't have any bad habits - not a barker, not a digger, not a chewer, not a jumper, not a troublemaker. He is excellent on the leash and will stay by our side off leash as well. Ruger is fully crate trained and housebroken to our house. He's used to eating dinner in his crate at bedtime, and likes to eat politely without scarfing it down. He's absolutely fabulous around kids (our youngest is 7) and really enjoys the company and attention of children. Ruger gets along with other dogs and would prefer to go to a home with another dog in the home. He gets along with both males and females; doesn't seem to have a preference. He has the ability to go on runs, hikes, and all sorts of high-stamina activities, however, he is also perfectly content just lounging around just hanging out doing nothing. He is REALLY GOOD around small animals like cats and chickens; he doesn't even bat an eye at them! Ruger does really well in the car, and does extremely well on long car rides. He was just NEUTERED last week, so you won't have to deal with making that appointment, paying for it, or recovery. It's all done! Plus, the best part is that leaving him intact all this time has allowed him to grow up and fully mature with all the right hormone levels for optimal health and longevity.
We are very excited for Ruger to go on to bless the perfect family with his love and presence!
Catahoulas are the most loyal family companion and protector that you could ever imagine. Ruger is a purebred Catahoula, so he needs a family that is familiar with this breed. However, he is definitely "a Catahoula on easy mode". He has been raised with structure, boundaries, and timely behavioral training, so he comes with all these "presets" built in. All you have to do is give him love, patience, and show him what boundaries exist in your house, and he will seamlessly fall into place in your family unit. Our bloodlines were selected for many traits, one of which was a balanced temperament. A dog that can switch "ON" and "OFF" depending on the day's demand. Not a dog that is constantly in need of high-powered activity, but can certainly bring the heat if the situation arises. a capable Catahoula that also knows how to relax.
Catahoulas do best with owners who are worthy of their trust and respect.
Ruger is submissive towards people. He is neither dominant nor submissive with other dogs, which is wonderful, but he does expect other dogs to adhere to the "canine code of conduct". That means that he will get along great with other similarly strong, intelligent, instinctual breeds, but will not enjoy being touched/fondled/mounted by a Goldendoodle that has never been taught boundaries. He knows how to say no - but some dogs don't know what "no" means. Even still, he will set his own boundaries and go no further than that, but he just won't enjoy being around the incessant pestering. He does enjoy playing with other dogs that understand mutual respect! Ruger is a purebred Catahoula and comes with his NALC registration/pedigree blue slip. Ruger's parents are both OFA CERTIFIED and Embark DNA tested! (Almost no other breeders are doing these tests in this breed).
