I thank my God upon every remembrance of you. Phil 1:3
Welcome to J Cross Catahoulas' home on the world wide web. We hope you enjoy your visit!
In February 1993, we began breeding for Catahoulas with an extreme working drive for our own personal use. Our need for a dog that could find cattle in the woods and bay for extended periods was the sole driving force for breeding, as we use our dogs in our daily business penning cattle for the general public. It was necessary to have a good tempered dog that was "hot" enough to stay when the cattle were rough and soft enough to bay when the cattle were already dog broke. We soon learned that not only were they exceptional cow dogs, but they could excel in any endeavor. We began hog hunting and found that the same cow drive we'd bred for produced excellent hunting dogs. From there, it snowballed. Justin, my son, became interested in competition hog baying. In August of 2002, we formally named our kennel and began offering for sale a few pups with the J Cross name.
These are the same dogs that we use in NALC (National Association of Louisiana Catahoulas) and other open competitions today. Our "show career" began in 2002 and has been a success. Please visit the awards page to see a listing of some of our accomplishments. As you'll see, our dogs are day to day working cow dogs and weekend hunters and show/bay dogs.
Our goal at J Cross Catahoulas, is to consistently produce a sound dog with exceptional conformation, temperament and all around working ability.
We are pleased to offer what we consider "as good as it gets". If you are interested in a dog with the drive to excel in any facet or simply have a question about this versatile breed, feel free to contact us. Typically we have 1-2 litters a year and occasionally have started cow/hog dogs for sale. At this time we typically do not offer our dogs for stud service outside our kennel.
J Cross Catahoulas is certified brucellosis free.
As you'll see in the photos throughout our site, from pet to work to show, they do it all!
