Catahoula Leopard Dog

I brought my Dog to the studio today.  That’s my boy. His name is Buhlow.  He’s a Catahoula from Louisiana.  My wife got him as a rescue when she did volunteer work during Hurricane Katrina.  They are a mix of several dogs including the Hound Dog and the French Beauceron.  They are used for hunting and can climb trees.  I read a book about them once that said, “If you don’t walk them several times a day they will eat your house.”  I found this to be true.  He actually ate the couch once and pooped white couch stuffing out for days. You can see why they are called leopard dogs. He has the David Bowie blue eye/brown eye thing going on.  He’s a good looking boy.  He wasn’t too excited about his studio photo session, so I made it quick.  I shot 40 frames with 2 strobes in less than 3 minutes and chose these 5.  I like them.  You can see his personality.  He’s a good dog when he gets his walk.
