How Our Catahoula Leopard Dog Maple Works On The Farm

We would like to introduce you to Maple, our red leopard female Catahoula Leopard Dog. We have been working with her to help us herd the sheep and goats as we rotationally graze them all around our property. We will also give you some history and insight into what type of dog Maple is, and what her role is on our farm. Get to know our sweet girl a little better, and see what she has learned.

I rescued a Catahoula. Most incredible dog I've ever worked with. He has significant behavior challenges due to his unfortunate history, but he is so amazing. Not just smart, but a partner. He is intense and really focused. He can also be really silly and affectionate with people he trusts. My advice is to socialize your Catahoula very early and consistently. Mine wasn't and will have lifelong distrust of strangers, but I'm working hard with him. Lots of wonderful dogs out there, but Catahoulas are something else.

[@YouCanFarm]

I totally agree!

[@susanhammack3158]

Thanks for posting this video. Catahoula dogs are a unique challenging breed with so much heart and soul. Ozzie and I are an odd PTSD support team, continuing to heal each other every day.

[@WonderfulTimes1]

Great job, Maple. You guys are inspiring to me. We're going to get this thing going this year.

[@YouCanFarm]

Awesome, you can do it!

[@RettsAdorablePets]

My first husband (deceased now) used to breed Louisiana Catahoula Leopard dogs for a while... They are gorgeous dogs!!

[@YouCanFarm]

Yes they are!

[@susanhammack3158]

I have a beautiful Catahoula I adopted from the Austin Humane Society shelter. Ozzie is the most emotionally sensitive Velcro dog I've ever known. His PTSD from being abandoned at age 4 by the couple he adored was so severe it took me four years and daily CBD to help him heal.

[@YouCanFarm]

Aww, I'm so glad he found a good home with you!

[@Grizzcatahoula]

She is stunning 😍

[@YouCanFarm]

Thank you!!

[@catherinemcgill3004]

Great job training Maple to do the job at hand! I had a fantastic Catahoula and I could get him to do just about anything. Great breed; I miss him every day 💔 Thanks for giving me some Catahoula time 🤩

[@YouCanFarm]

We have Gypsy our Blue merle Louisiana Catahoula Leopard Dog and Remmington a Liver /Red Merle we took in a few months ago... he's retriever and Australian Shepherd. He's a "designer dog" but was "thrown away" when we found each other... Bless his heart!

[@YouCanFarm]

Aww, I'm glad he found you!

[@RettsAdorablePets]

@@YouCanFarm Thank you.... so am I.... I really love him...

[@Peter-rg4ng]

Absolutely loved this Julie! Just found your channel. Your presentation and content rich explanations are superb. Have an Alapaha Blue Blood Bulldog from Georgia and live in a rural setting in central Oregon. They actually have a little Catahoula in the breed. Keep up the great work - love the content on the dogs as the info you share can be applied to the "real world". I am sure many of your subscribers have working farm dogs of all shapes, sizes and breeds.

[@YouCanFarm]

Thanks, sounds like a cool dog!

[@homesteadingpastor]

[@RettsAdorablePets]

Awwwwwwwww

[@YouCanFarm]

😊

[@RettsAdorablePets]

How darling....

[@YouCanFarm]

Thanks

[@DestinationDalmatian]

How are they around pigs and chickens??

[@YouCanFarm]

They have a high prey drive and will chase other livestock unless trained not to.

[@nicoleritchie8779]

Not all trainers have the understanding of this breed try pumi for another one

[@YouCanFarm]

True

[@fludrbywest3886]

Do you know where to find puppies? Do you breed? These are great dogs or maple is ! 😊

[@YouCanFarm]

You can call the NALC breed registry office and they can help you find a responsible breeder near you.

[@davidboskett5581]

Why do you need to feed grain with all that grass?

[@YouCanFarm]

We feed it as a protein supplement (spent brewers grain is almost all protein and fiber, all the carbohydrates have been cooked out of it) and to bucket train our animals so that we can move them around and catch them easily.

[@timterry2862]

How much do they cost

[@YouCanFarm]

Between $500-$2000, depending on quality.

[@nicoleritchie8779]

Remember Catahoula are independent

[@YouCanFarm]

Yes they are.

[@therozrodriguez77]

Anyone wants Catahoula puppies? We have NINE! :/

[@YouCanFarm]

Oh my goodness, you have your hands full!

[@timterry2862]

How much
