About Abel

Catahoula / Pit Bull
Age: Puppy
Sex: Male

It's time! Abel is ready to think about moving on to his forever home. Abel is an eight-ish month old Catahoula X (EMBK.ME/ABEL11). He is UTD on shots, healthy, and raw fed. Abel is a lovely pup-social, low drive, high energy, good with people and dogs, affectionate, cautious, and submissive, but not easily frightened. He is very willing and eager to please, but not a working prospect. He would make a lovely active companion for someone who understands his special needs. He must be neutered, and his surgery will be done at no cost to his adopter. His neuter can be done before or after he leaves. BAER testing confirms that he is completely deaf in his left ear and has some pretty profound hearing loss in the right ear (link to results below). I suspect he has some vision loss also (pupils two different sizes), but at this time, I can not afford testing, and see no reason to hold him until I can. Abel is generally clean in his crate. He has never had a poop accident, but he is a submissive pee'er (the older he gets, the less of this I see), so if he's been holding it all day, he will sometimes lose control before you get him out. Otherwise he's good for up to maybe 6 hours at a time or so (he's still a puppy). He also shreds bedding-ANY kind of bedding (primo pads, towels, blankets, floor matting, etc.). His crate currently has either a plastic tray or stall mat, and that works well for him. He has a pretty solid 'place' command, down, and recall. He would need continued reinforcement and training because he's still a baby. A fenced yard is a MUST for Abel. A willingness to work with an ecollar strongly preferred. His adoption fee will simply be the cost of his testing, etc to date. I will try to get updated pics. He's grown quite a bit since these photos were taken. I can, however, assure you that he is still cute and a button. I'm sure I'm forgetting a bunch of stuff. If you have questions, feel free to ask.
