Meet Axel – your new adventure buddy and snuggle partner!
Axel is a 9-month-old, 35-pound Catahoula Leopard Dog with a heart as big as his energy level. He’s a loving, loyal pup who lives for playtime and couch snuggles in equal measure. Whether it’s wrestling with another dog, a game of tug, or a spirited round of keep-away, Axel plays hard but stays gentle—no nipping, no guarding, just pure fun. He’s great with dogs, cats, and kids, and he’ll greet new people with a wag instead of a worry.
At home, Axel is leash trained, rides well in the car, and is doing great with potty training. He’s mostly crate trained, though he will bark when left alone—he just really wants to be with his people. He’s also on the mend from hookworm and takes trazodone or gabapentin for anxiety as needed.
Axel thrives with about an hour of exercise a day and regular training, and he’s already picking up commands quickly. He’s both treat- and attention-motivated, which makes him a joy to teach. But he’s still a young, high-energy dog, so his ideal home is one where he won’t be crated for long stretches—someone who works from home, or a family who can send him to doggy daycare. He’d be thrilled to have a playful canine sibling to match his energy and would love to go on a hike or run with you.
If you’re looking for a sweet, smart, social pup who will be your loyal shadow and your best reason to get outside and play, Axel’s your guy.
