Brindle breeds are highly desirable based on their unique fur patterns. Brindle Catahoulas are characterized by a tan coat that has darker tiger-like stripes overlaying it, with these stripes varying between these colors:
Blue Black Silver Red
Although brindle is described as tiger-like stripes, this breed shares more of a resemblance with a leopard, which is why they're also referred to as Catahoula Leopard Dogs.
This unique color pattern is caused by a recessive gene in the dog’s DNA. This gene mutation is the reason their coats come in a multitude of shades and patterns.
