Dogs are pretty cool if you have the time for them/ability to care for them. This one is backstock (adopted) 2012 Catahoula Leopard Dog (mostly), but has been modded with a Beagle tune. Idk if that voids the factory warranty.

( FULL DISCLOSURE: After 13 years, we had to put down our Chocolate Lab. I missed having a furry pal to call my own so I went out and adopted this one. The shelter gave her the name "Pat" but that was hardly a dog name so I decided to call her Daisy, being less than a year old, she took to it quickly )

EXTERIOR: 10/10

Seriously. She's the d'awww-siest puppy I've ever seen. She's got white paws, subtle custom "ghost spots" coat, and the tip of her tail is white, like someone dipped it in paint. Also:

Houla ears go up!

Houla ears go down!

That's right- she has pop up ears!

INTERIOR: ?/10

I'm not a psycho, I'm not gonna open my dog.

ACCELERATION: 10/10 (for a dog)

Catahoulas are FUCKING FAST. She can dead sprint faster than me and NEVER runs out of energy. For lack of own video, have a Houla climbing a tree:

That's right. They run so fast they straight up tell gravity so suck, like, all of the balls.

BRAKING: 9/10

Yup, she goes from flat out to full stop in like 2 feet.

Even on ice.

RIDE: 1/10

She's too small to fit a saddle too :(

HANDLING: 8/10

If she were a car, she'd be an RS200. Light, stupid quick, can handle rough terrain without really slowing, still manages to get a bit of oppo on sharp turns. Also handles well in the snow, slightly prone to oversteer on ice.

GEARBOX: N/A

CVT only.

AUDIO: 7/10

She has a fierce growl for a little girl, real deep and kind of wild sounding. Catahoulas have a very distinct bark, as they rarely bark, mostly howl/bay. Been known in the 'houla scene as "houla howl" !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! 's an example.

TOYS:

She has many squeaky ones. seems to enjoy them.

TOTAL SCORE: 200/100

Fuck logic I love her so I'll give her a better than perfect score.

Dedicated to MacDuff. 2000-2013. Miss ya buddy. Forever in my heart and thoughts.

Hybrid vigor is worth at least +50 HP.

You like hip-hop and you have a (mostly) Catahoula Leopard dog. You are my new favorite Opponaut.

I also have a BMW 2002, Saab 9-3 Viggen (although I'll have to give it back to its true owner next Monday, after a year of getting addicted to DAT SPOOL, and also a 2012 Sonata, but with a 6 speed manual)

Nice! What I would do for some a set of early bumpers on mine. Mine's a '76. Last year of the.... Well, all of them.
*secretly hopes the secret is a F20c swap but fervently denies it to purists/everyone*

Good looking dog.

I didn't see an energy level category in the review. I'm assuming Energy is close to 11/10 though.

My condolences on MacDuff.

(I have a 15 year old Black Lab.)

She's funny, energy wise. She's really mellow, unless you start playing with her, then she gets SOUPED. All I have to do to get her to calm down usually is stop playing and tell her playtime's over. She's really smart that way. But when she's in play mode, NOTHING CAN STOP HER.
