I can imagine how it will be when I get my catahoula. People often think they look like pit bulls. It's silly because most really don't look like pit bulls, and most pit bulls are very sweet dogs anyways. Plus my dog might have blue or yellow eyes -- alot of people find light coloured eyes to be very intimidating. And then. he might also be a bobtail. Some people think of rotties or dobies when they see bobtails. I'm afraid of dealing with this, but I'm eager to educate.
