Breaker is an intact male Catahoula Leopard Dog. This breed is known for being territorial, and highly suspicious of strangers. Breaker also has a history of reactivity, and you may have noticed he is the inspiration for my logo 🖤❤️ Breaker is my logo because he is the difficult dog that has made me work the hardest, and taught me so much in the process.

Breaker eating chicken in front of a complete stranger on his territory, and doing so calmly represents a new benchmark for him. For all of you struggling through adolescence with your dog, there is a light at the end of the tunnel. It's the adult brain we've been waiting for 🙌🏼

For a little dog with a lot of drive to herd, recall with a herd of cattle only yards away can be hard! But puppy Vanish did a great job!
