He is a Catahoula Leopard Dog. He is almost 2 years old. He was born on Valentine's Day. His name is Kato.
What We Are About To Do Here Is What The Good Lord Would Call A Cleansing of the Wicked. I Call It A Good Old Fashioned Texas Ass Kicking.
Ow wow! I would have ever guessed Catahoula Leopard! Our neighbors (avid hunters!) have one and it has a really distinctive black and grey coat (almost like a Dalmation only without the white.) I didn't know they had tan/brown coats as well. They strike me as really cool dogs, very smart, and good natured -- and ultra high-energy!
