The Catahoula Leopard dog

[OwnedByTheCow]

Is $1400 too expensive?
I found a breeder http://www.powerpointers.weebly.com
I am looking at this one but I think $1400 kind of expensive.

Yes, $1400 is expensive. Though with that breed it may be an issue of supply. AKC should also have a list of breeders. Be sure to check the "genetic disorders" for that breed, and make sure the breeder has screened the parents for them.

Here is a list of puppies that I am looking through. Its hard trying to look through them like which ones might be to good to be true and which ones are over priced.

Owned, might I suggest you ask around about some bird hunters in your area. These guys will have dogs and generally breed their own replacements. They will be of good working stock and will not be as pricey. We raised pointers when I was a child ,we quail hunted and has a couple litters a year. People would snap up the puppies because of the reputation of the line. All of this was before major puppy mills. I'm not sure of your location but if you have a local small animal vet he/she will probably know of someone.

I can ask.

Okay so my family has been looking at different dog breeds for quite a while. We really like the Catahoula Leopard dog but everything I have read has a lot of different opinions about temperaments. Would this breed be a good family dog. Opinions please. :help:

They can be bad to bite.
I have owned a couple can be very temperamental around children.
IMO working dog for work not a family pet.
Want to get the man a good dog buy him an Airedale.
