From what I can tell she's too high strung. They said she is crate trained and knows basic commands, so she is at least trainable. Catahoula can be hard trainers, so I'm going to reach out to a few local trainers today. Price out some classes. I like and am good with working aka stubborn dogs, but I think at least a basic obedience class would be good for her and I both.

They have poultry there already but I'm not sure how Bella (heard her name in the video) is with birds yet. I'm actually not sure about much regarding her yet. She looks to be good with kids though, and it would be cool if the boys had their own dog.

Plus Catahoula are instinctively protective of strangers. I'm not looking for a guard dog, but taking care of its own is a great trait. I found this here early this morning.

Had one for 16 years, another for about 5 years.

Mine where good with kids.

And plumb danged mean to a drunk that happened to stagger on to my carport at 0200 on a Sunday morning. It was not pretty to watch. Keep telling him to stop, he wouldn't stop. He continued towards the door waving his hands and hollering at me. I let him set his foot on the carport slab. Had my female catahoula dog by the collar, she was snarling and growling. When his foot touched the slab I gave the collar a twist, told her "get'em". She was not trained, figured at most she would nip him, maybe and bark getting his attention making him back off. She hit him at a run leaping up just as she reached him, her front paws hit him in the chest. Knocked him flat, then she began to take nice large chunks out of what ever part of the body the guy offered. He scrambled to his feet and my last sight of him was going down the driveway with his back pocket ripped nearly off. Daphne, my sweet family dog, giving him a bite and head shake every few feet. Some strange reason he was still hollering and waving his arms. To this day and it has been over 10 years ago, I do not know who the drunk was, nor have I heard from him again.
