Newman - Catahoula Leopard Dog and Mountain Cur Dog for Adoption in Heathsville, Virginia

I am the full package! Initially I was heartbroken after being dropped off at one of the shelter staff members homes, but I spent that time with him while we waited for an opening at the shelter. He knows me well and gives me high marks for being a great companion. Im potty trained and dont pull on a lead. I love people, other dogs, and even some farm animals! I can be a bit cautious at first, but if you take things slow and earn my trust, youll see—then its game on! Im full of personality and ready for any experience with my favorite human. Could that be you?
