The history of the Catahoula is murky at best, but
the animal we know today appears to have appeared first
in Catahoula parrish, Louisiana, eventually leading to
its status as the state dog of Louisiana. The technical
term for the breed is Louisiana Catahoula Leopard Dog,
though it is known colloquially by several variations.
According to the oral traditions of the American
Indians of the Catahoula Lake region, the dogs were
captured by the local warriors following the massacre of
DeSoto and his conquistadors, and later intermingled
with the Louisiana Red Wolf, which may or may not be
extinct. French Canadian trappers and traders who
subsequently infiltrated the region ("Acadia") were
known to have brought in Beaucerons, who likely figure
as well into the breed we know today.

We occasionally have a litter of Catahoulas. We like
the bloodlines we have and breed to keep those in tact.
