Olive has never met a stranger and loves it when
people come to visit. She is very sweet and loving, even with the rocky start
she had. She was left behind when her owners sold their house. Then when she
ended up in the motherly way, the person who had taken her in threatened to
put her to sleep because they didn't want to deal with a litter of puppies.
Well all of that is behind her now. Olive gave birth to 12 happy and healthy
puppies on New Years Eve and is ready to wean her brood that she has taken
such good care of.
ONLY
A FEW LEFT!
All proceeds go to RESCUE!

Happy Tails –
this is why we rescue
 Marbles was a terrified, timid little Catahoula
mix who for the second time in his life ended up back in the same shelter.
The first time he was born there. His
mother was a red leopard Catahoula who was found wandering the streets of Billings Montana,
with a toe frozen off and very very pregnant, the temps were sub zero and had
she whelped in those temperatures out of doors, the pups would have died.

Training Tip – “Socializing your Catahoula”
By
Kristen Brubach Socialization is a topic that is near and
dear to the hearts of most dog trainers, so there is quite a lot of good
information out there about it. However,
most of it is very general and doesn’t really address the specific needs of
different breeds of dogs. Also, much
of it deals with that window of opportunity that you have when you are
dealing with a puppy. Many people of
course get their dogs as pups, but more and more folks are bringing an adult
Catahoula into their household. So
I’ve come to look at socialization as a two-stage process. (
