Tis The Season!!!

Hello Everyone ... Sorry for the delayed post.  It's been a bit chaotic in our house. Long story short, we started out fostering my Niece's adopted shelter dog she could no longer keep; and as you can guess, he's now a permanent member of the family.  He's 5 yrs old; and he's either 100% red merle Catahoula Leopard Dog  or 80% Catahoula/20% Labrador Retriever. Our vet recognized he was Catahoula.  I'd only seen blues, so his coat color threw me off and the longer,  feathered hair, another trait I'd never seen, along with the red merle or longer hair in Catahoula's; but I've only seen about 3 in my life, again,  all blue merles. He's a very good boy,  knows his basic commands; they just need fine tuning, esp COME, STAY and DOWN (long distance).  Next step, a good obedience school.  Here is our new furkid, Gordy: 

It's nice to have a dog in our family again.  It feels right and normal. ♡♡
